3.1  Compliance labels

Requirement for devices (other than low risk devices) to bear compliance label

Location of compliance label
 (2) Subject to sections 3.6 and 3.6A, the compliance label must be placed on the device on a place that is accessible by the user.
Note: Section 3.6 deals with situations where applying a label to the surface of a device is not possible or practicable. Section 3.6A gives a supplier the option of labelling some types of devices electronically.
 (3) A label is not accessible if it is necessary to use a specialised tool to gain access to it.

3.2  Compliance labels for low risk devices
 (1) The supplier of a low risk device may choose whether or not to apply a compliance label to the device.
Note: Section 4.2 applies to a supplier that chooses to apply a compliance label to a low risk device.
 (2) A low risk device must comply with an applicable standard that is applicable to it, whether or not it has a compliance label applied to it.
 (3) If a supplier chooses not to apply a compliance label to a low risk device then, for the application of the following provisions of this Notice, the low risk device is taken to have a compliance label applied to it:
 (a) section 3.7;
 (b) Part 4 (other than section 4.3A);
 (c) Part 5.
Note: The effect of applying these provisions to a low risk device is to require the supplier to comply with record‑keeping obligations, whether or not the low risk device has a compliance label applied to it.

 (a) the manufacturer; or
 (b) an agent of the manufacturer; or
 (c) a person who is authorised by the manufacturer or agent to apply the label on behalf of the manufacturer or agent.
