Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 698/2012
Of 25 July 2012 — CELEX 32012R0698
Description of the goods
1. A multifunctional apparatus (so-called ‘multimedia centre for motor vehicles’) of a kind used in motor vehicles, consisting of two main components: — a reception apparatus for radio-broadcasting combined with a CD/DVD player, — a detachable colour liquid crystal display (LCD) of the touch screen type with a diagonal measurement of the screen of approximately 17,5 cm (7 inches) and an aspect ratio of 16:9. The apparatus is equipped with connectors enabling the reception of video signals from external sources such as a rear-view camera. The apparatus is presented with a remote control. An additional display can be connected to the apparatus.
Reasons
Classification is determined by General Rules 1, 3(c) and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 8528, 8528 59 and 8528 59 40. The apparatus consists of components capable of performing various functions (sound reproduction, video reproduction, radio-broadcasting, displaying video), none of which, in view of its design and concept, gives the apparatus its essential character. By application of GIR 3(c), the apparatus is therefore to be classified under CN code 8528 59 40 as other colour monitors with a screen of the LCD technology.

The apparatus is equipped with connectors enabling the reception of video signals from external sources such as a rear-view camera or a DVB-T tuner. The apparatus can also reproduce sound and images from a memory card. The apparatus is presented with two remote controls. An additional display can be connected to the apparatus.
Reasons
Classification is determined by General Rules 1, 3(c) and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 8528, 8528 59 and 8528 59 40. The apparatus consists of components capable of performing various functions (sound reproduction, video reproduction, radio navigational aid, radio-broadcasting, displaying video), none of which, in view of its design and concept, gives the apparatus its essential character. By application of GIR 3(c), the apparatus is therefore to be classified under CN code 8528 59 40 as other colour monitors with a screen of the LCD technology.
