Application of EEC signs relating to pattern approval or exemption from pattern approval
12.—(1) Where an EEC pattern approval (whether granted under these Regulations or by any member State other than the United Kingdom) is in force in respect of any pattern of instrument, and EEC initial verification is not required by the relevant Directive for instruments of the category to which it belongs, the manufacturer shall cause the sign of EEC pattern approval and exemption from initial verification to be affixed to instruments conforming to the approved pattern.
(2) Where an EEC pattern approval (whether granted under these Regulations or by any member State other than the United Kingdom) is in force in respect of any pattern of instrument, but instruments of the category to which it belongs are required by the relevant Directive to be submitted for EEC initial verification, the manufacturer may or, if the relevant Directive so requires, shall cause the sign of EEC pattern approval to be affixed to instruments conforming to the approved pattern.
(3) Where the relevant Directive provides that a category of instruments to which it applies shall not be subject to EEC pattern approval, the manufacturer may, but need not, cause the United Kingdom sign of exemption from EEC pattern approval to be affixed to instruments of that category.
(4) Any sign affixed in accordance with this Regulation shall be affixed at a visible point on the instrument and must be legible and indelible.
