This clause of Part 1 is replaced by the following.
This International Standard deals with the safety of electric blankets, pads and other flexible appliances that heat the bed or human body, for household and similar purposes, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V.
This standard also applies to control units supplied with the appliance.
As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, in general, it does not take into account
\u2013 the use of appliances by young children or infirm persons without supervision;

NOTE 101 Children are considered to be old enough to use an appliance without supervision when they have been adequately instructed by a parent or guardian and are deemed competent to use the appliance safely. NOTE 102 Attention is drawn to the fact that
\u2013 for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements may be necessary;
\u2013 in many countries, additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national authorities responsible for the protection of labour and similar authorities. NOTE 103 This standard does not apply to
\u2013 appliances intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas);
\u2013 rigid bed warmers, such as those of metal or ceramic material;
\u2013 water bed heaters (IEC 60335-2-66);
\u2013 heating appliances for breeding and rearing animals (IEC 60335-2-71);
