Background: OSM 2012 found it useful to have a similar decision for EN 60065 as the decision 01/8 for EN 60950-1. It has lately been questioned by the chairman of IEC TC108/MT1 that the decision 12/2 may amend EN 60065. Thus, we are proposing a revision of 12/2. Ref. OSM/EE – 2007 Item No.7.1 (enclosed):* j2 P0 w3 |% t; S
“OSM decision 01/8 requires markings on the product (e.g. "Use only power supplies listed in the user manual / user instruction." or “For applicable power supplies see user instruction”). Furthermore such sentences shall be in the languages acceptable to the country where the product will be used.
J+ T! U6 r: I& a7 l cWe cannot assume that all people speak or understand English and therefore it is necessary to put nearly all languages of such relevant safety instructions on the product.* I* T% U/ J3 I6 S s# T
That cannot be a solution because many products are too small!”
6 |- k. _1 E% T+ m, Y0 zOSM/EE-2007 agreed to use instead of such instructions (sentences) on the product, international accepted symbols like these both marks (ISO 7000-0434 and ISO 7000-1641):- R3 Z. o/ r& Y: k) Q' n+ s
Later it was confirmed by TC108/MT1 that the book only can be used as an alternative. See explanatory notes below. Based on this it is proposed to revise decision 12/2 as amended with red text under the decision below.

Decision: This decision replaces 12/2 with the amended text in red:( j4 O0 T5 h9 W* U% F5 _
When safety of an apparatus relies upon the power supply (adaptor) using a non-special connector for the a.c./d.c. input, the apparatus must have a marking stating the following: "Use only power supplies listed in the user instructions"

As an alternative to the text on the product, it is acceptable to use both the symbols ISO 7000-0434 and ISO 7000-1641. The book alone is also sufficient (ISO 7000-1641).. D$ e0 }" Q1 n8 C4 Q
