Note 1: This safety specification is not intended to meet the unique requirements of Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA).

Note 2: Specification F2090 addresses window fall prevention devices (releasable), including window opening control devices (WOCD(s)) for windows intended for emergency escape and rescue and any other window not covered by this safety specification.
