Proposal for Supplement 4 to the 02 series of amendments and for Supplement 1 to the 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 118
Document GRSG-112-12
20 April 2017

Proposal to clarify the text. Supplement 1 to the 02 series of amendments amended the definition of the interior compartment (formerly “passenger compartment” up to the 01 series of amendments). Part of this amendment concerned the upper boundary surface, replacing the term “roof” by “ceiling”. This proposal updates several passages of the text where the term “roof” should therefore be replaced.
