1.Apparatus whose compliance with this Directive has been established by means of the procedure laid down in Article 7 shall bear the ‘CE’ marking which attests to that fact. The affixing of the ‘CE’ marking shall be the responsibility of the manufacturer or his authorised representative in the Community. The ‘CE’ marking shall be affixed in accordance with Annex V.
2.Member States shall take the necessary measures to prohibit the affixing to the apparatus, or to its packaging, or to the instructions for its use, of marks which are likely to mislead third parties in relation to the meaning and/or graphic form of the ‘CE’ marking.
3.Any other mark may be affixed to the apparatus, its packaging, or the instructions for its use, provided that neither the visibility nor the legibility of the ‘CE’ marking is thereby impaired.
4.Without prejudice to Article 10, if a competent authority establishes that the ‘CE’ marking has been unduly affixed, the manufacturer or his authorised representative in the Community shall bring the apparatus into conformity with the provisions concerning the ‘CE’ marking under conditions imposed by the Member State concerned.
