Article 8 clause 1(b) is about the powers of regulatory authorities. 1(b)(i) is about marking **on the product itself**, such as the X-ray warnings required by some countries on TV sets. It does not seem to address the provision of instructions, which is simply assumed in Article 2 b). Obviously, common sense indicates that products that cannot be used by anyone who does not have a computer don't need a hard-copy instruction book. But everything else probably does. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
