All text above is reproduced verbatim from the EUR-Lex consolidated text (CELEX 02023R0988-20260529), extracted mechanically via the Publications Office Cellar API — see tools/eur-lex/build_eu_product_safety.py, whose verify mode confirms every source paragraph appears verbatim. Do not hand-edit article or annex text. On the next amendment, adopt the new consolidation id in the script deliberately. Consolidation markers (▼M/▼B) are stripped as apparatus. Anchors: official ELI unit ids (e.g. {#art_9}, valid as EUR-Lex HTML fragments) plus derived paragraph/point anchors from printed labels.
