PART 1211--SAFETY STANDARD FOR AUTOMATIC RESIDENTIAL GARAGE DOOR 
OPERATORS--Table of Contents
 
                        Subpart B--Certification
 
Sec.  1211.24  Product certification and labeling by manufacturers.

    (a) Form of permanent label of certification. Manufacturers 
(including importers) shall issue certificates of compliance for 
automatic residential garage door operators manufactured after the 
effective date of the standard in the form of a permanent label which 
can reasonable be expected to remain on the operator during the entire 
period the operator is capable of being used. Such labeling shall be 
deemed to be a ``certificate'' of compliance as that term is used in 
section 14 of the CPSA, 15 U.S.C. 2063.
    (b) Exception for UL listed operators. The certification labeling 
requirement of paragraph (a) of this section shall be satisfied by 
display of the Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. (UL) logo or listing 
mark, and compliance with the date marking requirements of UL Standard 
for Safety 325, on both the operator system and its container. Operators 
displaying the UL logo or listing mark and complying with the UL 
standard are exempt from the requirements of paragraphs (c) and (d) of 
this section.
    (c) Contents of certification label. The certification labels 
required by this section shall clearly and legibly contain the following 
information:
    (1) The statement ``Meets CPSC -------- (insert 1993 or later date 
of applicable standard) garage door operator entrapment protection 
requirements.''
    (2) An identification of the production lot.
    (d) Placement of the label. The label required by this section must 
be affixed to the operator. If the label is not immediately visible to 
the ultimate purchaser of the garage door operator prior to purchase 
because of packaging or other marketing practices, a second label that 
states: ``Meets CPSC -------- (insert 1993 or later date of applicable 
standard) garage door operator entrapment protection requirements,'' 
along with the month or week and year of manufacture must appear on the 
container or, if the container is not visible, on the promotional 
material used with the sale of the operator.
