The guidelines are designed to help economic operators and authorities and facilitate consistent implementation. They concern the implementation of Article 4 only and do not apply to EU product legislation not covered by it, which may impose similar but different requirements (3). They refer to requirements under EU harmonisation legislation as they apply at the date of adoption of this guidance. Comprehensive guidance on EU harmonisation legislation is available in the Blue Guide, to which these guidelines refer (4). The Commission will update this guidance in the light of further legislative developments in other areas, like for instance the Digital Services Act (5).
