This document specifies a method for determining the colour fastness and ageing properties of all kinds
and forms of dyed and printed textiles and/or other organic substrates under the action of an artificial
light source representative of natural daylight (D65), and under the simultaneous action of heat. Of the
five different sets of exposure conditions specified (see 7.1.1), four use D65, and the other one uses a
somewhat lower cut-off wavelength. The test method gives special consideration to the light and heat
conditions that occur in the interior of a motor vehicle.
The five different sets of conditions using the different optical filter systems specified can produce
different test results. Results from tests performed using different apparatus (instrument types) for the
same set of conditions and optical filter system are not comparable because comparable performance
has not been validated.All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
