the conformity of the non-automatic weighing instrument with the essential requirements has been demonstrated by a conformity assessment procedure.

An economic operator must not affix a marking to a regulated non-automatic weighing instrument which is not the UK marking or the M marking but which purports to attest that the non-automatic weighing instrument satisfies the essential requirements.
