packaged types, and labeling of content information of specific chemical substances will be indicated in accordance with JIS C 0950:2008 The marking for presence of the
specific chemical substances for electrical and electronic equipment.
4. Recycled plastic denotes part or all of plastic once used as a part of a useful product that
has been discarded, remnants discarded during the manufacturing process, or the recyclereuse of defective articles This excludes, however, plastic that has been
recycled in the process of manufacturing the product.
5. In order to manage chemical substances adequately, each procurement organization is to manage and maintain content information of specific chemical substances until the
item in question is discarded. Table 1 : Standard Energy Consumption Efficiency for the Air-conditioners,
applicable to Appendix 37 of Rules for Indicating Quality of Domestic Products, is a wall-mounted non-ducted type excluding multi-types with ability to control
