Proposal to correct an error introduced by the 01 series of amendments to UN R113 when angular coordinates were introduced instead of dimensions in mm with screen at 25 m. The same correction applies to the 02 and 03 series of amendments to UN R113 and to UN R149. The proposal also corrects Annex 3, Figure C of UN R113 where the description of the zone 1 is not in line with the photometric requirements set in paragraph 6.2.5.2. which defines the horizontal angles to 5° to the left and 5° to the right. Similarly, the proposal corrects Annex 4, Figure A4-IX of UN R149 where the description of the zone 1 is not in line with the photometric requirements set in paragraph 5.4.4.2. Table 34 which defines the horizontal angles to 5° to the left and 5° to the right for the class BS headlamps.

Submission for the October GRE session listing the Stage One and Stage Two amendments under development.

Correspondence raising for discussion clarifications to references to UN R149 in view of the pending proposals for a 01 series of amendments.

Proposal to make explicit reference to UN R149 (Road Illumination Devices) in order to enable the continued acceptance of headlamps compliant with UN Regulations under Canada’s CMVSS 108.

Revised proposal from GRE (submitted to the March 2019 WP.29 session) to introduce transitional provisions for the phasing out of UN R113 in conjunction with the introduction of the new UN Regulation on Road Illumination Devices (RID).

Proposed transitional provisions to end further development of current UN lighting regulations in favor of the new UN Regulations on light-signalling devices (LSD), road illumination devices (RID), and retro-reflecting devices (RRD) developed under the Simplification of Lighting Regulations (SLR) program.

Request to GRE and the SLR informal group to give consideration to transitional provisions.

Recent amendments to the Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 108 allows UN Regulation
headlamps to be used on vehicles in Canada. CMVSS 108 specifically refers to the existing UN Regulations. In order to continue the acceptance of headlamps compliant with UN Regulations in Canada after the switch to the new Road Illumination Devices (RID) regulation, the current regulations should make clear references to RID before they are frozen and superseded.

SLR informal group removing the brackets around (i.e., confirming) the 24-month transition period for the switch to approvals only under the new LSD, RRD, and RID regulations and to delete the proposal that approvals and extensions of approvals granted under each regulation would remain valid indefinitely.

Proposal from GRE to introduce transitional provisions for the phasing out of UN R113 in conjunction with the introduction of the new UN Regulation on Road Illumination Devices (RID).

Proposal to a) improve the transitional provisions presented in GRE/2018/11 with regard to the collective
amendments to Regulations Nos. 3, 4, 6, 7, 19, 23, 27, 38, 50, 69, 70, 77, 87, 91, 98, 104, 112, 113, 119 and 123 and b) introduce new requirements into the 06 series of amendments to UN R48 with regard to the validity and installation of type approved lighting and light-signalling devices.

Proposal from the Simplification of Lighting Regulations informal group to introduce transitional provisions for the phasing out of the existing Regulations on lighting and light-signalling in conjunction with the introduction of three new simplified Regulations on Light-Signalling Devices (LSD), Road Illumination Devices (RID) and Retro-Reflective Devices (RRD).

Proposal from the Simplification of Lighting Regulations informal group to introduce transitional provisions for the phasing out of the existing Regulations on lighting and light-signalling in conjunction with the introduction of three new simplified Regulations on Light-Signalling Devices (LSD), Road Illumination Devices (RID) and Retro-Reflective Devices (RRD).

Proposal as sent by the SLR informal group to GRE for its October 2017 session for transitional provisions for the phasing out of the current lighting regulations (in terms of continued development and granting of new type approvals) in favor of the new lighting device and related regulations.

Proposal to:

1. correct provisions on bend lighting for motorcycles adopted by WP.29 as Supplement 2 (document WP.29/2012/83),
2. reference the compliance requirements for installation contained in Regulations Nos. 48, 53, 72 and 86,
3. clarify the definition of “type”, with regard to manufacturer, trade names and marks,
4. introduce editorial improvements to the requirements for markings,
5. amend the formula for the dirt mixture used in testing to address an error introduced by Supplement 9 to the 01 series of amendments to UN R45,
6. clarify the test cycle with regard to the stability of photometric performance during the heat test, with particular reference to the movement of the cut-off line, and
7. harmonize related requirements across Regulations Nos. 19, 98, 112, 113 and 123.

Collective amendment working draft to introduce the transitional provisions for the switch from the current lighting regulations to the new simplified lighting regulations (light-signalling, retro-reflective devices, and road illumination devices). The draft proposal would allow 24 months from the entry into effect of the new regulations.

Revised proposal to clarify the requirements for light sources in the lighting and light-signalling Regulations listed in Annex 4 to Regulation No. 0 on the International Whole Vehicle Type Approval (IWVTA) pursuant to GRE-77 discussions.

Discussion paper concerning modifications to the draft proposal for a new UN Regulation on road illumination devices in order to achieve the aims of GRE/2016/34 which proposed amendments to Regulations 19, 98, 112, 113 and 123.

Proposal to clarify the requirements for light sources in the lighting and light-signalling Regulations listed in Annex 4 to Regulation No. 0 on the International Whole Vehicle Type Approval (IWVTA).

Proposal to remove the amendment to the heat test cycle related to the movement of the passing beam proposed in the draft supplement (document WP.29/2017/39). The EU views the proposed test cycle changes (based on document GRE/2016/32) as a substantial revision of the procedure amounting to a new requirement. Therefore, the EU will only agree to the proposed Supplement 7 to the 01 series if the requirement concerning the heat test cycle is removed from the proposal WP.29/2017/39.

Proposals for amendments to Regulations Nos. 4, 6, 7, 19, 23, 38, 48, 50, 77, 87, 91, 98, 112, 113, 119, 123 to clarify requirements for light sources in lighting and light-signalling Regulations listed in Annex 4 to UN Regulation No. 0. The proposed UN R0 on whole vehicle type approval requires submission of approval certificates for components and systems. Vehicle manufacturers work directly with UN R48 approvals, but lamp and device approvals are generally handled by lighting suppliers. UN R48 includes provisions for listing approvals of lighting units, but not for approvals of light sources (presently UN R37, R99, and R128). This set of proposed amendments introduces provisions for light-source approvals under the device regulations.

Proposal to:

1. correct provisions on bend lighting for motorcycles adopted by WP.29 as Supplement 2 (document WP.29/2012/83),
2. reference the compliance requirements for installation contained in Regulations Nos. 48, 53, 72 and 86,
3. clarify the definition of “type”, with regard to manufacturer, trade names and marks,
4. introduce editorial improvements to the requirements for markings,
5. amend the formula for the dirt mixture used in testing to address an error introduced by Supplement 9 to the 01 series of amendments to UN R45,
6. clarify the test cycle with regard to the stability of photometric performance during the heat test, with particular reference to the movement of the cut-off line, and
7. harmonize related requirements across Regulations Nos. 19, 98, 112, 113 and 123.

The collective amendment presented in GRE/2016/34 extends the usage of LED light sources of UN R128 to front lighting Regulations Nos. 19, 98, 112, 113 and 123. The introduction of LED light source categories under UN R128 for forward lighting applications (front fog, low beam, high beam,
AFS) is planned for 2017. This presentation explains the plans, timeline, and dependencies GTB proposes to address through the collective amendment, especially within the context of the simplification of lighting regulations program.

This collective amendment extends the usage of LED light sources of UN R128 to front lighting Regulations Nos. 19, 98, 112, 113 and 123 (as presented in the previous session document GRE-75-14). The proposal would allow for the use of regulated replaceable LED light sources according to Regulation No. 128 in all applications where the use of LED modules is already permitted.

This collective amendment on the stability of photometric performance during the heat test, with particular reference to the movement of the cut-off line, clarifies the test cycle and also aligns the requirements of Regulations Nos. 19, 98, 112, 113 and 123. In addition to resolving problems of interpretation presented by the current text, this collective amendment will assist the Informal Working Group “Simplification of Lighting and Light-Signalling Regulations” in drafting the new simplified Regulations which is underway.

Proposal to align the requirements of UN R113 with those adopted in Regulations Nos. 98, 112 and 123 relating to movement of the cut-off line after heat test and to correct an error in the provisions on the use of LED modules.

Compressed data package of three documents providing lists of proposals for amendments to lighting regulations within the context of plans for the restructuring of UN lighting regulations.

Proposal to amend the formula for the dirt mixture used in testing to address an error introduced by Supplement 9 to the 01 series of amendments to UN R45 where the specified quantity of “2 ± 1 parts by weight” of surfactant results in invalid testing. The correct specification should be “2 ± 1 drops” of surfactant. While GTB notes that the specification should eventually be incorporated differently under the pending simplification of lighting regulations, the organization strongly urges amending UN R45 as quickly as possible.

Updated paper on the grouping of lighting regulations under one of three new regulations as follows:
Light Signaling Devices incorporating Regulations 4, 6, 7, 23, 38, 50, 77, 87, and 91
Forward Lighting Devices incorporating Regulations 19, 98, 112, [ 113 ], 119, and 123
Retro-Reflective Devices incorporating Regulations 3, 27, 69, 70, and 104

Proposal to align the requirements of UN R113 with those adopted in Regulations Nos. 98, 112 and 123 relating to movement of the cut-off line after heat test and to correct an error in the provisions on the use of LED modules.

A mock-up for the proposed regulation consolidating the current forward lighting device regulations, illustrating how the application of the device subparts would be shown in the “Status of the 1958 Agreement” registry of applications, approval authorities, and technical services. The approach would be to add a column listing the lighting functions for which each Contracting Parties accepts/issues approvals.

Proposal as approved by the GRE to replace the current variety of test mixtures used to simulate dirt during the testing of lamps with a single uniform mixture. In addition, the proposal would replace the term “beech wood” with the phrase “produced from beech wood” to improve clarity. The proposal would also simplify the measurement of the objective luminous flux of light emitting diode (LED) module(s) and correct the ultraviolet (UV) table in the regulation.

Proposal to correct provisions on bend lighting for motorcycles recently adopted by WP.29 as Supplement 2 (document WP.29/2012/83).

Proposal to correct typographical errors introduced during previous amendment to the regulation (see document WP.29/2012/83). The initial changes were already in Revision 2 of UN Regulation No. 113.
