In onboard electrical systems, electrical disturbances can be caused by individual consumers. At Volkswagen AG, the electronic components installed in the factory are checked in the vehicle for their electromagnetic compatibility.

If retrofitting electrical or electronic systems, their electromagnetic compatibility should also be checked.

The following industrial standards provide the necessary details:

• DIN 40839
• DIN 57879
• DIN VDE 0879

In addition, the EMC Directive 72/245/EEC in the version 2006/96/EC (or later) or ECE Directive 10-03 (or later) must be complied with.

Furthermore, the regulations and directives of the specific country in which the vehicle is registered must be complied with!
