The documented hazard identification and risk assessment for the product across its lifecycle, updated when the design, the use or the field data changes. - Test reports
Test reports from an accredited or accepted laboratory against the standards the technical file names, tied to the exact model and revision tested. - Labelling and instructions
Markings on the product and packaging (conformity mark, identification, warnings, manufacturer and importer details) and the instructions and safety information in the language of the market. - Third-party certificate
A type-examination certificate, notified or approved body certificate, or listing from a recognised laboratory, with the scope and the expiry.
