5.3.1.1. If there is no engine start during the first cycle of the type approval procedure of this vehicle, at the option of the manufacturer the vehicle may be tested according to paragraph 5.3.1.2.

              5.3.1.1. Charge-Depleting Type 1 test procedure

               The vehicle shall be tested according to the charge-depleting Type 1 test procedure as described in paragraph 3.2.4. of Annex B8.

               If deemed necessary, the manufacturer shall demonstrate that preconditioning of the traction REESS in advance of the CoP procedure is required. In such a case, at the request of the manufacturer and with approval of the approval authority, preconditioning of the traction REESS shall be done in advance of the CoP procedure according to manufacturer's recommendation.

              For Level 1A only

              The electric energy consumption ECAC,CD shall be determined according to step 9 of Table A8/8 of Annex B8.

              5.3.1.2. First cycle of the Charge-Depleting Type 1 Test

              5.3.1.2.1. The vehicle shall be tested according to the charge-depleting Type 1 test as described in paragraph 3.2.4. of Annex B8, whilst the break-off criterion of the charge-depleting Type 1 test procedure shall be considered to have been reached when having finished the first applicable WLTP test cycle.

               The DC electric energy consumption from the REESS(s)  shall be determined according to paragraph 4.3. of Annex B8 where ∆EREESS,j shall be the electric energy change of all REESS and dj shall be the actual driven distance during this test cycle.

              5.3.1.2.2. In this cycle, there is no engine operation allowed. If there is engine operation, the test during conformity of production shall be considered as void.

              5.3.2. The conformity of production with regard to the charge-depleting electric energy consumption shall be verified on the basis of the values for the tested vehicle as described in paragraph 5.3.2.1. in the case that the vehicle is tested according to paragraph 5.3.1.1. and as described in paragraph 5.3.2.2. in the case that the vehicle is tested according to paragraph 5.3.1.2.

              5.3.2.1. Conformity of production for a test according to paragraph 5.3.1.1.

               In the case that the interpolation method is not applied, the charge-depleting electric energy consumption value ECAC,CD,final according to step 16 of Table A8/8 of Annex B8 shall be used for verifying the conformity of production.

               In the case the interpolation method is applied, the charge-depleting electric energy consumption value ECAC,CD,ind for the individual vehicle according to step 17 of Table A8/8 of Annex B8 shall be used for verifying the conformity of production.

              5.3.2.2. Conformity of production for a test according to paragraph 5.3.1.2.

               In the case the interpolation method is not applied, the charge-depleting electric energy consumption value  according to step 16 of Table A8/8 of Annex B8 shall be used for verifying
