10 253 E/ECE/324 E/ECE/TRANS/505 6 1. Scope This Regulation establishes technical requirements for the type approval of motor vehicles. In addition, this Regulation lays down rules for in-service conformity, durability of pollution control devices and on-board diagnostic (OBD) systems. This Regulation shall apply to vehicles of categories M1, M2, N1 and N2 with a reference mass not exceeding 2,610 kg1. At the manufacturer's request, type approval granted under this Regulation may be extended from vehicles mentioned above to M1, M2, N1 and N2 vehicles with a reference mass not exceeding 2,840 kg and which meet the conditions laid down in this Regulation. 2. Definitions For the purposes of this Regulation the following definitions shall apply: "Vehicle type" means a group of vehicles that do not differ in the following respects: The equivalent inertia determined in relation to the reference mass as prescribed in Annex 4a, Table 3; and The engine and vehicle characteristics as defined in Annex 1; "Reference mass" means the "unladen mass" of the vehicle increased by a uniform figure of 100 kg for test according to Annexes 4a and 8; "Unladen mass" means the mass of the vehicle in running order without the uniform mass of the driver of 75 kg, passengers or load, but with the fuel tank 90 per cent full and the usual set of tools and spare wheel on board, where applicable.
