This is a New Work ballot to re-activate a cancelled project. This document specifies principles, requirements, recommendations and other provisions for preparing and presenting instructions for the assembly of self-assembly products intended for a non-skilled target audience assembling a product without help from a trainer or supervisor. This document is applicable to instructions for: — supporting the assembly of a product that is supplied as a kit of components designed to be assembled into a specific item, which can have alternative assembly configurations (often described as “flatpack products”); — installing products supplied with components (e.g. screws) intended for attachment to existing products (e.g. a vehicle) or fixtures (e.g. a wall); — erecting or configuring products that incorporate structural elements requiring folding, locking or tensioning (e.g. child pushchairs, camping equipment); — supporting the assembly of a specific product intended to be assembled by a non-skilled assembler for their own use or for use by another individual (e.g. assembly of a toy by a parent for subsequent use by a child). This document does not apply to: — components or constructional material supplied in combinations and numbers specified by the customer; — multiple identical kits supplied in batches for professional assembly and commercial sale as an assembled product; — products intended for professional assembly only by someone skilled or trained in assembling such products or by a skilled person whose relevant technical education, training or experience enables them to perceive risks and avoid hazards in the assembly and use of a category of products (e.g. electrician, vehicle mechanic). This document is applicable to all parties involved in the preparation of instructions for self-assembly, including: — product suppliers; — hardware and software product and information designers; — technical communicators and technical illustrators; — testers and evaluators; — managers; — safety authorities. This document is supplementary to IEC/IEEE 82079-1, which specifies provisions applicable to the preparation of all information for use of products – including self-assembly and all other phases (such as operation, maintenance and disposal).
