(a) All indoor air cleaning devices are
					 required to display an ozone emissions certification label [as defined in
					 Section 94801(a)(20)] on
					 the product packaging after completion of requirements of Section
					 94804 prior to sale in California,
					 unless satisfying the requirements for exemption as specified in Section
					 94803.

					 be at least 1 inch by 2 inches in size, easily readable, and shall state "Meets
					 California ozone emissions limit. CARB certified" in bold type whose uppercase
					 letters are not less than 3 mm high. Very small air cleaning devices, including
					 dual-function devices, may use a smaller label, although it must include the
					 required language, be easily readable, and be approved by CARB staff prior to
					 certification. In no case shall the label be placed on the bottom of the
					 packaging.
(c) For medical devices,
					 the label shall be in compliance with federal law, including Section
					 801.415 of Title 21 of the Code of
					 Federal Regulations. The label shall also state "CARB certified".
(d) All electronic indoor air cleaning
					 devices (both medical and non-medical) are required to display the safety
					 certification or listing mark on the device, consistent with the ANSI/UL
					 Standard 867 requirements or, for in-duct devices, the CSA C22.2 no. 187-20
					 requirements of the appropriate NRTL safety certification organization, after
					 completion of requirements of Sections
					 94804 and
					 94805 and prior to sale in
					 California, unless the device satisfies the requirements for exemption as
					 specified in Section
					 94803. Devices qualifying as
					 "mechanical filtration only" devices as described in Section
					 94801(a)(24) and
					 Section 94804(b) and
					 portable air cleaning devices using only UVGI lamp(s), with or without
					 mechanical filtration, as described in Section
					 94801(a)(38) and
					 Section 94804(b) shall
					 display the ANSI/UL Standard 507 certification mark. Dual-function devices with
					 an air cleaning component, as described in Section
					 94801(a)(13),
					 shall display the certification or listing mark for the appropriate electrical
					 safety test for its primary function.
(e) Any indoor air cleaning device that is
					 advertised or sold via the Internet or by catalog but that has not been
					 certified according to Section
					 94804, and is not exempt from
					 certification according to Section
					 94803, must display the following
					 advisory in a prominent place on the primary web pages, catalog pages, and
					 related materials where such device is advertised or displayed for sale: "Does
					 not meet California air cleaner regulation requirements; cannot be shipped to
