The Product Safety Act valid throughout Europe stipulates “A product…, must only be made available on the market if it does not endanger the safety and health of persons in case of proper and foreseeable use. The following points must be considered particularly when assessing whether a product meets the requirements ...:
The properties of the product including its composition, its packaging, the instructions for its assembly, the installation, the maintenance and the period of use.”
And further below in the Act: “Where specific rules have to be complied with regarding the use, addition or maintenance of a product in order to guarantee safety and health of persons, German language instructions for its use shall be supplied with the product when making it available on the market...”
