Initial agenda. Annotated agenda, including documents for consideration, will be published later.

Proposal to correct paragraph 16.1.3.1. as follows: “The minimum and the average magnification factors of the CMS, in both horizontal and vertical directions shall not be lower than the minimum average magnification factors indicated below.” The latter reference to “minimum average” should be deleted since the subsequent text provides the required minimum and average magnification factors.

Proposal to establish procedures for the approval of non-seamless double and single wall gas tubes provided they can withstand the applicable tests according to Annex 15.

Proposal to correct the definition of “manual valve”, including deletion of the phrase “rigidly fixed to the cylinder or tank”. The definition of the manual valve as part of the accessories fitted to the container or tank (para. 4.16.) is different from the definition specified in paragraph 4.22. The proposed editorial change aims at clarifying the text of these definitions.

Proposal to align UN R121 with the 07 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 16:

1. the term “seat belt” is replaced by “safety belt”,
2. the symbol for safety belt, defined in item 21 of Table 1 in the Regulation, may be displayed in different colours to convey different meanings. Therefore, the existing footnote 18 has been added to item 21, and
3. this symbol may be replaced by different symbols for seats other than those of the front row. Therefore, a new footnote 22 is added to item 21.

This proposal also aligns UN R121 with ISO 2575 per ISO Resolution 664 allowing for use of the diesel engine glow plug symbol with non-diesel technologies that (also) assist engine starting at low temperatures. The current text of the Regulation focuses on diesel engine glow plugs that assist in starting the engine at low temperatures.

Proposal to align the headform test with the deceleration measurement and the test of resistance to abrasion with ISO 15082:2016-11, including changes to the test details, correction of the headform calibration values, and the introduction of abrasion reference materials. The latter is combined with an abrasive-wheel qualification and a correction calculation (for plastic materials only).

PSG informal group proposal to correct the scope of the GTR in accordance with Part A of the GTR, its UN R43 counterpart, and corresponding regional/national interpretations and to align the impact test procedure description with that of UN R43 and ISO 3537.

Proposal to amend Figure 2a of Annex 21 to better reflect the meaning of paragraph 2.4.2.2. of Annex 21, mainly to clarify the lateral limits of any opaque obscuration in this area.

Proposal to introduce provisions for cargo-compartment refrigeration systems connected to the compressed natural gas (CNG) and/or liquefied natural gas (LNG) system(s).

Proposal to clarify the definitions of LPG container accessories to facilitate coordination between the separate, independent approvals required for the LPG container and for its accessories. The proposal aims to ensure proper coordination between container approvals (which involve testing with accessories attached) and accessory approvals (which may be subsequent to the original container approval and therefore, relevant to its validity).

Proposal to establish requirements for Blind Spot Information Systems (BSIS) intended to be fitted in heavy goods vehicles to protect vulnerable road users. This proposal is based on GRSG-109-19 and explained in presentations GRSG-110-18-Rev.1 and GRSG-111-24.

Updated proposal from the AECS informal working group for a new UN Regulation on accident emergency call systems and devices.

Proposal to address the concerns raised in document GRSG-111-35 (which failed to achieve consensus at the last GRSG session) through application of FprEN 16584-1:2015 and 2:2015, respectively referring to requirements for color contrast for signage and quality of audible information.

Presentation concerning ISO vehicle propulsion energy identification standardization.

Proposal to align the communication form with with the scope of the Regulation regarding vehicle categories (adding category L).

In the English version of UN Regulation No. 34, the provisions for lateral collision are referenced in para. 1.2. of the scope and in para. 9 of Part II on vehicle tests, but (unlike in the French translation) they are not mentioned in para. 5.10. on the test requirements for liquid fuel tanks. This proposal aims to align the English version to French text of the Regulation with regard to the test provisions for side impacts.

Proposal to exempt any heaters (and not only combustion heaters as in the current text) located outside the passenger compartment and using water as a transfer medium are deemed to comply with the annexes on air quality and temperature.

Proposal to change the measuring units for vehicle masses used in RE3 from tonnes to kilograms in R.E.3.

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.
