2.

Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 46(3).
3. However, the presumption of conformity with the general safety requirement under paragraph 1 shall not prevent market surveillance authorities from taking all appropriate measures under this Regulation where there is evidence that, despite such presumption, the product is dangerous.
