Frontal protection systems fitted as original equipment to vehicles of categories M 1 and 
N1 or made available on the market as separate technical units intended for such 
vehicles  
 
1. Provisions for the approval of frontal protection systems  
1.1. A frontal protection system intended as original equipment shall be approved in 
accordance with UN Re gulation 127 and be considered as an integral part of the relevant 
vehicle.  
1.2. A frontal protection system intended as separate technical unit shall fulfil the 
following requirements:  
1.2.1.  Frontal protection systems shall be accompanied by information that describes the 
exact vehicle type, variant and version for which it is type -approved and shall be accompanied 
by detailed installation instructions providing sufficient information for a competent person to 
be able to install it properly on the vehicle . The instructions shall be provided in all the 
official languages of the Union.  
1.2.2.  All tests shall be carried out either with the frontal protection system mounted on a 
vehicle of the type, variant and version for which it is intended or on a test fra me closely 
representing the essential outer front -end dimensions of the intended vehicle. When using a 
test frame, it is not permitted that, apart from the initial mounting points, the frontal protection 
system makes contact with the frame during testing. Contact of the legform or headform 
testing device with the frame during testing is also not permitted. In case of such contact, the 
test in question shall instead be carried out with the frontal protection system mounted on the 
relevant vehicle type, varia nt and version.  
1.2.3.  For frontal protection systems to be mounted on vehicles resulting in a lower frontal 
protection system height at the test position which ≥ 425 mm and < 500 mm either the tests 
according to point 1.2.4. or 1.2.5. shall apply, at the choice of the manufacturer. Where the 
height < 425 mm, the tests in accordance with 1.2.4. shall apply. Where the height ≥ 500 mm, 
the tests in accordance with 1.2.5. shall apply.  
1.2.4.  The flexible lower legform tests on the frontal protection system sha ll be carried out in 
accordance with the relevant provisions laid down in UN Regulation 127 for the ‘bumper test 
area’ compliance tests where this is understood to be for the purpose of the frontal protection 
system legform test area, including applying th e relevant injury criteria requirements. 
However, the corners of the frontal protection system shall be taken into account and no 
relaxation zone shall apply. The test points shall be clearly identified in the test report.  
1.2.5.  The upper legform tests on  the frontal protection system shall be carried out in 
accordance with the relevant provisions laid down in UN Regulation 127 for the ‘bumper test 
area’ compliance tests where this is understood to be for the purpose of the frontal protection 
system legfor m test area, including applying the relevant injury criteria requirements. 
However, the corners of the frontal protection system shall be taken into account. The test 
points shall be clearly identified in the test report.  
1.2.6.  A minimum of three child he adform impact tests in accordance with point 1.2.7. shall 
be carried out at all positions on the frontal protection system that are considered by the 
technical service to be the worst case. The tests shall be carried out to different types of  
EN 34  EN structure, wh ere these vary throughout the area to be assessed. The test points shall be clearly 
identified in the test report and shall be chosen directly onto the frontal protection system 
where the relevant part or parts are located beyond a wrap -around distance (WA D) of 900 mm 
considered with the intended vehicle type, variant and version in its normal ride attitude.  
1.2.7.  The tests shall be carried out in accordance with the relevant provisions laid down in 
UN Regulation 127 for ‘child headform test area’ complian ce tests where this is understood to 
be for the purpose of the frontal protection system child headform test area. However, the 
head injury criteria (HIC) recorded shall not exceed 1 000 in all cases. The test points shall be 
clearly identified in the test  report.  
2. Markings  
2.1. Each frontal protection system shall be clearly and indelibly marked with the trade 
name, make or trade mark and type designation as well as the EU type -approval mark for 
which the space shall be sufficient.
