Medical - Medical: Dentistry / Risk Analysis of Dental Equipment
German term or phrase: Ausstattungstexte
"5.2
Lagerung Fertigprodukt (Lagerungsbedingungen)
Haltbarkeitsprüfungen, Erfahrungswerte vergleichbarer Produkte, Hinweise zur Lagerung in der Kennzeichnung (definierte Lagerbedingungen); Verfalldatum
Hinweise auf das Verfalldatum sind in den Ausstattungstexten enthalten.
Es werden Lagerbedingungen definiert.
Es findet eine Post-Marketing Survellance statt."

From a risk analysis of dental equipment. I can't make any sense whatsoever out of the word "Ausstattungstexte". Of course, no dictionary has heard of it, and Google is no help at all. TIA for any light you can shed on this very strange word.

English translation:Product specification sheet / data sheet
Explanation:
I have come across this before and my choice back then was Product specification sheet. There are a fair few variants, like spec sheet, data sheet, technical data sheet.....

I wasn't 100% convinced by either answer, but in the end I went with "product specification sheet". Don't feel confident enough about it to enter it in the glossary though. All the same, thanks to both of you for your efforts with this most perplexing word. Appreciate your efforts.

agree  gangels (X): Verfalldatum/Lagerung etc are not really product features, your 'specs' is more pertinent intros case
7 hrs
neutral  Michael Martin, MA: Nobody was suggesting that Verfalldatum/Lagerung ARE product features. The source merely states that information pertaining to these things is also contained in the features description. That doesn’t make them front and center there.

Link below presents a context where they talk about product descriptions/features (features = Austattung):

"Es ist der Richtige....der Zusatz "Stand: April 1991" ist übrigens zu der Preisliste darüber....unter den Austattungstexten steht der Zusatz "Stand: August 1992", aber das sind beides nur Angaben wann die Informationen der Online-Datenbank zur Verfügung gestellt wurden."

Most of the references to Ausstattungstexte I am seeing are about cars. But they all unmistakably talk about product features. See below. Doesn’t seem likely then, that this would be radically different with dental equipment.

Mein Händler rief gerade an und fragte nach dem Navigationspaket....

was ist der Unterscheid zwischen folgenden Paketen:

- Business Columbus Traveller für 2110€
- Infotainment Columbus Traveller für 2490€

Ich habe die Ausstattungstexte mal vergleichen, im Business ist zusätzlich folgendes schon mit drin:

SunSet (Serie bei Edition)
zusätzlich inkl. Gepäcknetztrennwand (Combi: Ambition, Elegance, RS)
elektrischer Heckklappe (Combi: Ambition, Elegance)

Und trotzdem günstiger?? Kann das sein?

neutral  Daniel Arnold (X): I just dont feel that features description is the best choice here, in my opinion it is too generic, not specific enough
