Division 3.2.2

At the applicant's request, the vehicle of a category M₂, M₃, N₂ or N₃ shall be deemed representative of its completed type if the tests are carried out on an incomplete vehicle not having bodywork. In the test of an incomplete vehicle, all relevant soundproofing materials, panels and noise reduction components and systems shall be fitted on the vehicle as designed by the manufacturer except a part of bodywork which is built at a later stage.

No new test shall be required due to the fitting of a supplement fuel tank or re-location of the original fuel tank on the condition that other parts or structures of the vehicle apparently affecting sound emissions have not been altered.
