Proposal to amend UN R48 in order to enable type-approval of direction indicators with variable apparent surfaces.

Proposal to introduce an alternative set of performance-based requirements for the initial aiming of dipped-beam headlamps and allowing removing the artificial 2,000 lm borderline and Light Emitting Diode (LED) automatic leveling. This document supersedes document GRE/2013/15.

OICA comments on the Dutch proposal to revise definitions and specifications concerning “operating” and “failure” tell-tales under UN R48.

Proposal to retroactively extend the clarifications to the definitions and requirements associated with the installation of “single lamps”, “lamps marked D” and “interdependent lamps” to the 04 and 05 series amendments to Regulation No. 48.

Proposal to introduce the following into Regulation No. 48:
a) General definition of ‘tell-tale’, as also currently defined in Regulation No. 121;
b) Requirement that the specifications of the tell-tale (location, identification, symbol, illumination and colour) shall meet the relevant requirements of Regulation No. 121;
c) Provision that tell-tales shall always provide an optical signal, thus aligning with Regulation No. 121; however, it is suggested to allow additional signals (auditory or any equivalent signal);
d) New definition of a ‘failure tell-tale’ and stating the mandatory presence of such tell-tale for the daytime running lamp in certain cases;
e) Editorial changes clarifying the situation for a few other cases in Regulation No. 48, where apparently also a ‘failure tell-tale’ was meant.
