Основни принципи относно маркировката CE
General principles governing the CE marking
Маркировката CE може да бъде поставена единствено от производителя или негов агент.
The CE marking may be affixed only by the manufacturer or its agent.
Чрез поставянето на маркировката CE, производителят поема отговорност за съответствието на продукта спрямо изискванията на Решение .../... на Европейския парламент и на Съвета от ... [относно обща рамка за пускането на продукти на пазара].
By affixing the CE marking the manufacturer assumes responsibility for the product’s conformity to the requirements of Decision …/… of the European Parliament and of the Council of ... [on a common framework for the marketing of products].
Маркировката CE е единствената маркировка, която удостоверява, че продуктът отговаря на съответните изисквания.
The CE marking is the only marking certifying that the product conforms to the relevant requirements.
Държавите-членки се въздържат от позоваване в своето национално законодателство, и премахват всички съществуващи позовавания на маркировка за съответствие, различна от маркировката CE, във връзка с пълното съответствие с разпоредбите на общностното законодателство относно маркировката CE.
Member States shall refrain from referring in their national legislation, and shall remove any existing references, to a conformity mark other than the CE marking in connection with full conformity to the provisions of Community legislation on the CE marking.
Никакви маркировки, знаци или надписи не могат да бъдат поставяни върху даден продукт, ако е вероятно те да предизвикат объркване по отношение на значението на графичния символ CE, с който е обозначена маркировката.
No marks, signs, or inscriptions may be affixed to a product if they are likely to cause confusion as to the meaning or the “CE” graphic symbol by which the marking is denoted.
Всякаква друга маркировка може да бъде поставяна върху продукта при условие, че не пречи на видимостта, четливостта или значението на маркировката CE.
Any other marking may be affixed to the product, provided that it does not detract from the visibility, legibility, or meaning of the CE marking.
Products bearing the CE mark are considered safe because they have been manufactured in accordance with Community legislation.

It is consequently in the interest of producers, dealers, and consumers alike to have clear rules on CE marking.

If the size of the CE marking is reduced or enlarged, the proportions shown in the scale drawing reproduced in paragraph 1 must remain unaltered.
Когато специфичното законодателство не посочва точния размер, маркировката CE трябва да е не по-малка от 5 мм.
Where the specific legislation gives no indication of the exact size, the CE marking must be no smaller than 5 mm.
