1 EDS Engineering,. Standards AUTOMOTIVE RESTRICTED HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES FOR PARTS EDS-A-0101 ISSUED DATE: REVISEDDATE: - VERSION: 1

2 SUBSTANCES FOR PARTS PAGE: 1/8 1. PURPOSE The purpose of this standard is for the development of the environmental friendly vehicles over a period of time from production to junk, to regulate 4 kinds of heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Cr6+ and Hg) on materials and components of parts being used in vehicles. 2. SCOPE 2.1. This standard applies to any of vehicles designated as category M1(up to 9-seater passenger car, van, RV, etc) or N1(up to 3.5-ton truck in gross weight) and covers materials and components as well as spare and replacement parts based on EU Directive 2000/53/EC The standard is also applied to the case that the specifications of the above-mentioned cars are changed due to the use of alternative parts or material This standard applies to the materials and components existed in the final product excluding the materials and components consumed in the process.(for the example cutting oil, wash water) 2.4. This standard applies to not the assembly parts but the materials and components of parts. 3. DRAWING INDICATION This standard must relate to the indication below for drawings and other specifications of material and components that are used. Materials and components of parts must comply with EDS-A Requirements 4.1. Materials and components of vehicles should not contain the heavy metals, such as lead(pb), cadmium(cd), hexavalent chromium(cr6+) or mercury(hg) other than in cases listed in paragraph Exemption The explanation in and accepted the exceptional cases for using the heavy metals Materials and components of vehicle listed in Annex 1(see the Annex 1) can use until the expiry date of the exemption In the cases that lead, cadmium, hexavalent chromium or mercury is not intentionally introduced, the concentrations of these substances are limited to the maximum concentration value, which is listed in Table 1. In addition, Official document, which is guaranteed by Head of company should be submitted.(see the Annex 2) Here intentionally introduced shall mean deliberately utilised in the formulation of a material or component where its continued presence is desired in the final product to provide a specific characteristic, appearance or quality.

3 SUBSTANCES FOR PARTS PAGE: 2/ The document, including the hazardous substances report(see the Annex 3) & test report related hazardous substances, must be submitted to design department through WWP. In the case of the In-house parts, which made in the GMDAT plant, this document can be submitted to design department directly. When submitting, the findings on inquiry must be included in an Excel file. Table 1. The limit of concentration not intentionally introduced Division The limit of concentration not intentionally introduced (ppm) Lead (Pb) 900 Cadmium (Cd) 90 Hexavalent chromium (Cr6+) 900 Mercury (Hg) 900 ppm means parts per million, for example 1ppm means that hazardous materials contains 1mg in the 1kg material. The relation between ppm and wt % : 1 wt % = 10,000ppm 5. HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES MANAGEMENT PROCESS Standard release Cause analysis and Improvement (Supplier/WWP/Design/Test Lab) Meet the Standard (Supplier/Design) Submit the document (Hazardous substances report & test report) 6. THE TEST METHOD FOR HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES Test report for the hazardous substances is only valid when KOLAS endows official recognition to it. Test method is shown in Annex 4. When the European standard regulations for test method are prescribed, we follow it.
