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.

Revised 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.

Given the mandatory requirement for a daylight running lamp tell-tale, this proposal replaces the word “operating” with the word “failure” in describing the failure tell-tale of paragraph 7.4.2.(b). This proposal complements the similar proposal for Regulation No. 48 contained in informal document GRE-70-09.

Proposal to clarify that in the case of a stop lamp, the failure indicator of paragraph 6.1.7.2. is a “failure tell-tale” rather than an “operating tell-tale”. This proposal complements the similar proposal for Regulation No. 48 contained in informal document GRE-70-09.

Series of proposals to revise the positioning specifications for direction indicators, marker lamps, and reflectors on trailers (O category) and to make clarifications.

Proposal to restructure the definitions and requirements associated with the installation of “single lamps”, “lamps marked D” and “interdependent lamps” as proposed by GTB. OICA agrees with the principle, but proposes changes to the placement of the definitions within the rule.

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 extend to the the 04 and 05 series amendments to Regulation No. 48 the proposed reduction in the minimum speed for activation of E-class passing beams from 70 km/h to 60 km/h and to prescribe clear alternatives to either detect motorway conditions with sensors or only activate the E mode above a speed of 110km/h.

Following discussions with OICA, GTB proposes improvements to the definitions and requirements associated with the installation of “single lamps”, “lamps marked D” and “interdependent lamps”.

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

OICA proposal to amend Poland’s 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.

Presentation in support of document GRE/2013/57 proposing 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.

Revised presentation in support of document GRE/2013/57 proposing 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.

Proposal to expand the tolerances proposed for the initial aiming of dipped-beam headlamps in order to encompass all vehicle configurations and conform to the practical constraints of vehicle mass production.

Submitted by the Netherlands to introduce a mandatory requirement for fitting an operating tell-tale on the daytime running lamp, in case the failure provision (for the light sources) according to paragraph 7.4.2.(b) of UN Regulation No. 87 is applied.

Proposal to clarify the definitions and requirements associated with the installation of “single lamps”, “lamps marked D” and “interdependent lamps”.

Proposal to reduce the minimum speed for activation of E-class passing beams from 70 km/h to 60 km/h and to prescribe clear alternatives to either detect motorway conditions with sensors or only activate the E mode above a speed of 110km/h. Moreover, the proposal extends the provisions to all vehicles.

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.

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

Proposal concerning the retention of headlamp initial aiming. Due to reservations raised over the unusually long transition periods, this proposal was returned to the Working Party on Lighting and Light-signalling for further consideration.

Corrections to the earlier proposal revising the title from “Supplement 8 to the 04 series” to read “Supplement 1 to the 06 series” and changing “90 months” read “84 months”.
