Background: Ref. OSM/EE – 2007 Item No.7.1 (enclosed):
$ h* p3 l, x+ r3 _+ u1 i. U! l“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.6 `' z s, l# S
We 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.$ V* c& h; s7 |. ^+ P9 ]8 d; e
That cannot be a solution because many products are too small!”
: {/ m% b3 h/ d) v7 N3 n, b% yOSM/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):
1 f& j& x5 D7 b5 BLater it was confirmed by TC108/MT2 that the book only can be used as an alternative. See explanatory notes below. Based on this it is proposed to revise decision 01/8 as amended with red text under the decision below.1 i0 h/ ]+ _: v& V
It may be considered that the Decision 99/2, requiring marking of manufacturer and model of the power supply on the product, is too stringent in light of sub clause 1.7.2.1 Z& d2 H* e6 [
Decision: This decision replaces 01/8 with the amended text in red:+ [' o# w) u$ `. j3 h4 b) q7 _
A Class III equipment with an enclosure made of HB material and using a non-special connector for the a.c./d.c. input has to have a marking stating the following: "Use only power supplies listed in the user instructions"

"For applicable power supplies see user instructions". This statement shall also be in the user-instructions.8 i0 y, U) Q0 [# }/ l

In respect of reducing the risk of ignition and spread of flame, Method 2 of 4.7.1 of EN 60950:2000 is recommended.
