Subject to the provisions of points 1.1.1. to 1.1.2., all tyres fitted to vehicles, including any spare tyre, shall be type-approved according to UNECE regulation No 75. 1.1.1. Where a vehicle is designed for conditions of use which are incompatible with the characteristics of tyres type-approved according to UNECE regulation No 75 as applicable in the Union legislation at the time of type-approval testing of the vehicle and it is therefore necessary to fit tyres with different characteristics, the requirements of point 1.1. do not apply, provided that the following conditions are met: the tyres are type-approved according to Council Directive 92/23/EEC Council Directive 92/23/EEC of 31 March 1992 on tyres for motor vehicles and their trailers (OJ L 129, 14.5.1992, p. 95 ).Regulation (EC) No 661/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 July 2009 concerning type-approval requirements for the general safety of motor vehicles, their trailers and systems, components and separate technical units intended therefor (OJ L 200, 31.7.2009, p. 1 ).";the approval authority and technical service are satisfied that the tyres fitted are suitable for the operating conditions of the vehicle.

The space in which each wheel revolves shall be such as to allow unrestricted movement when using the maximum permissible size of tyres and rim widths, taking into account the minimum and maximum wheel off-sets if applicable, within the minimum and maximum suspension and steering constraints as declared by the vehicle manufacturer. This shall be verified by performing the checks for the largest and the widest tyre in each space, taking into account the applicable rim size and the maximum allowed section width and outer diameter of the tyre, in relation to the tyre size designation as specified in the applicable legislation.

For this purpose, either the specifications as provided for in Annex 5 of UNECE Regulation No 75 or the permitted percentages as provided for sizes not included in that Annex shall be taken into account (e.g. overall width of multiservice tyres (MST) + 25 %, normal and snow service tyres + 10 % in case of rim diameter code 13 and above and + 8 % in case of rim diameter codes up to 12 inclusive). 2.3.2. In addition, the permissible dynamic growth of the height of bias and bias/belted construction tyres which are type-approved according to UNECE regulation No 75 depends on the speed category and the category of use of the tyre. To ensure an appropriate selection of bias and bias/belted replacement tyres for the end-user of the vehicle, the vehicle manufacturer shall take into account both the permitted categories of use as well as the speed category that is compatible with the maximum design vehicle speed, for the determination of the permitted tolerance laid down in point 4.1. of Annex 9 to UNECE regulation No 75 (i.e. H dyn = H × 1,10 up to Hdyn = H × 1,18). More stringent categories may be taken into account at the discretion of the vehicle manufacturer.2.4.

The technical service shall clearly indicate in the test report which parts of the interior are deemed to be instrument panel and relevant elements, in agreement with the type-approval authority. The steering control shall be disregarded for the determination of the level of the instrument panel."; (b) the following point 2.1.8. is inserted: "2.1.8. Contactable edges of type-approved interior rear-view mirrors (Class I) are deemed to comply with the requirements of this Annex."; (c) point 2.2.1. is replaced by the following: "2.2.1. In this zone, as well as that covered by point 1.1.6.3.1., a knee-form testing apparatus shall be moved from any given starting location in a horizontal and forward direction, while the orientation of the X-axis of the device may be varied within the specified limits.

At least two of the limitation methods used, as referred to in points 1.1.2.1 to 1.1.2.4., shall operate independently of each other, be different in nature and have different design philosophies, although they may apply similar elements (e.g. both methods based on the notion of rotation speed as a criterion, but one measured inside a motor and the other in the drive-train's transmission). Failure of one method to work as intended (e.g. due to tampering) shall not impair the limitation function of other methods. In this case, the maximum power and/or vehicle speed which can be attained may be lower than under normal conditions. Without prejudice to the conformity of production tolerance set out in point 4.1.4. of Annex IV to Regulation (EU) No 44/2014, the maximum power and/or vehicle speed may not be higher than demonstrated at type-approval, if one out of the two redundant limitation methods is eliminated."; (c) the following points 1.1.2.6. to 1.1.2.9. are inserted: "1.1.2.6.

Such combination of limitation methods shall be regarded as a single limitation method within the meaning of point 1.1.2.5. 1.1.2.8. Individual limitation methods or combinations of the limitation methods referred to in points 1.1.2.1 to 1.1.2.4. may be applied more than once provided that their multiple uses operate independently of each other, as required by point 1.1.2.5., so that failure of one of the methods to work as intended (e.g. due to tampering) does not impair the functioning in another application, of the same limitation method or combination of methods. 1.1.2.9. A limitation strategy that in case of failure (e.g. due to tampering) includes the activation of a special operating (e.g. "limp home") mode with substantially reduced maximum vehicle speed and/or maximum power not suitable for normal operation or that activates an ignition interlock preventing the engine from running for as long as the failure remains, shall be regarded as one limitation method."; (d) point 1.1.4. is replaced by the following: "1.1.4.

Table Ap2.1-1 Accessories to be fitted during the propulsion unit performance test in order to determine torque and net engine power If it is difficult to use the standard exhaust system, an exhaust system causing an equivalent pressure drop may be fitted for the test with the agreement of the manufacturer. In the test laboratory when the engine is in operation, the exhaust gas extraction system shall not cause in the extraction flue at the point where it is connected to the vehicle's exhaust system a pressure differing from atmospheric pressure by ± 740 Pa (7,40 mbar), unless, before the test, the manufacturer accepts a higher back pressure. The air inlet flap shall be that which controls the pneumatic inject pump regulator. Where a fan or blower may be disengaged, the net engine power shall first of all be stated with the fan (or blower) disengaged, followed by the net engine power with the fan (or blower) engaged. Where a fixed electrically or mechanically-operated fan cannot be fitted on the test bench, the power absorbed by that fan shall be determined at the same rotational speeds as those used when the engine power is measured. That power is deducted from the corrected power in order to obtain the net power. The thermostat may be locked in the fully open position. The radiator, fan, fan nozzle, water pump and thermostat shall, on the test bench, occupy as far as possible the same position relative to each other as if they were on the vehicle. If the radiator, fan, fan nozzle, water pump or thermostat have a position on the test bench which is different from that on the vehicle, this shall be described and noted in the test report. The liquid coolant shall be circulated solely by the water pump for the engine. It may be cooled either by the engine radiator or by an outside circuit, provided that the pressure drops within that circuit remain substantially the same as those in the engine cooling system. If fitted, the engine blind shall be open. Minimum generator output: the generator supplies the current that is strictly needed to supply the accessories that are essential to the operation of the engine. The battery shall not receive any charge during the test.
