Where can you find the details of the inspection period of a fire extinguisher carried in the vehicle?

The fire extinguisher in a vehicle must be regularly inspected to ensure it is in good working order. The inspection period details are critical for safety compliance and can be found on the inspection tag and the maintenance log of the fire extinguisher.

1. The inspection tag on the fire extinguisher provides immediate information about the last inspection date and when the next one is due. This is a crucial element for ensuring the extinguisher is usable in case of an emergency.

2. The maintenance log records all inspections and maintenance activities performed on the fire extinguisher. This log is important for tracking its service history and ensuring that it meets the legal safety requirements.

While the adhesive seal in the registration certificate Part I is related to the vehicle's registration, it does not provide information about the fire extinguisher's inspection period. Therefore, referring to both the inspection tag and the maintenance log is necessary to fully understand and comply with the inspection requirements as per German safety regulations. Regularly checking these details not only ensures legal compliance but also fosters vehicle safety for the driver and passengers.
