‘1 000 mm wrap around distance’ is the geometric trace described on the frontal upper surface by one end of a 1 000 mm long flexible tape, when it is held in a vertical fore and aft plane of the car and traversed across the front of the bonnet and bumper. The tape is held taut throughout the operation with one end held in contact with the ground, vertically below the front face of the bumper and the other end held in contact with the frontal upper surface (see Figure 3). The vehicle is positioned in the normal ride attitude.
Similar procedures shall be followed, using alternative tapes of appropriate lengths to describe 1 500 and 2 100 mm wrap around distances.
