Recital 50
This is a recital of the 2024 act: interpretive context for the operative articles, not operative law itself.
▼ Primary text, verbatim. Our annotations appear below, visibly separated.
As regards AI systems that are safety components of products, or which are themselves products, falling within the scope of certain Union harmonisation legislation listed in an annex to this Regulation, it is appropriate to classify them as high-risk under this Regulation if the product concerned undergoes the conformity assessment procedure with a third-party conformity assessment body pursuant to that relevant Union harmonisation legislation. In particular, such products are machinery, toys, lifts, equipment and protective systems intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres, radio equipment, pressure equipment, recreational craft equipment, cableway installations, appliances burning gaseous fuels, medical devices, *in vitro* diagnostic medical devices, automotive and aviation.
