3. Products with digital elements and processes put in place by the manufacturer for which an EU statement of conformity or certificate has been issued under a European cybersecurity certification scheme adopted as per Regulation (EU) 2019/881 and specified as per paragraph 4, shall be presumed to be in conformity with the essential requirements set out in Annex I in so far as the EU statement of conformity or cybersecurity certificate, or parts thereof, cover those requirements.
4.

Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 51(2).
