No. I don't see so many EU documents as others here do, and it is very difficult, as you know, to find a document when you don't know a document title to look for. I am remembering information posted here quite a long time ago.

Yes, I was thinking that a short paper guide would help. URL link is important as you say, and QR are actually for advanced mobile users.

Have you seen this issue been discussed in “Blue Guide” or other EU documents?

I believe that in Europe, it is not allowed. Current practice seems to be to include with the product a short  'User Guide' or similar, which includes the safety information required by the relevant safety standard, and the DOC(s), together with a text link of the URL of the full User Manual. You could include a QR code in addition, but not instead of the text link, because about 15 % of people don't have a smart phone or don't know much about using it for anything but calls, text messages and the camera.

    Should such a symbol Link
    https://www.iso.org/obp/ui#iso:grs:7000:3500  also be attached
    when using QR code?

    Best regards
