Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

The measurement of errors on installation and during use shall be carried out under the following conditions, which are to be regarded as constituting standard test conditions:

  • vehicle unladen, in normal running, order

  • tyre pressures in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions,

  • tyre wear within the limits allowed by law,

  • movement of the vehicle: the vehicle must proceed, driven by its own engine, in a straight line and on a level surface, at a speed of 50 ± 5 km/h; provided that it is of comparable accuracy, the test may also be carried out on an appropriate test bench.
