km/h and 20 km/h from the rear entering the zone as specified in paragraph 6.6.3. when the vehicle is stationary. In such case, the information signal shall be maintained as long as the bicycle is in the defined zone or as long as it would be in the zone considering a constant speed of the bicycle target until it reaches the front right corner of the vehicle. The constant speed is based on the speed of the bicyclist when entering the zone.

              5.3.1.5. The vehicle manufacturer shall ensure that the number of false-positive warnings due to the detection of static non-VRU objects such as cones, traffic signs, hedges and parked cars shall be minimized. However it may give an information signal when a collision is imminent.

              5.3.1.6. The BSIS shall automatically deactivate if it cannot operate properly due to its sensoring devices being contaminated by ice, snow, mud, dirt or similar material or due to ambient light conditions below those specified in paragraph 5.3.1.3. This shall be indicated as specified in paragraph 5.6.2. It shall automatically reactivate when the contamination disappears and normal function has been verified. This shall be tested in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 6.9. below.

              5.3.1.7. The BSIS also shall provide the driver with a failure warning when there is a failure in the BSIS that prevents the requirements of this Regulation from being met. The warning shall be as specified in paragraph 5.6.1. This shall be tested in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 6.8. below (failure detection test).

              5.3.2. The manufacturer shall demonstrate, to the satisfaction of the Technical Service and Type Approval Authority, through the use of documentation, simulation or any other means, that the BSIS is performing as specified also for smaller bicycles and smaller bicyclists, differing by not more than
              36 per cent from the values detailed in ISO [CD] 19206-4:2018.

              5.4. Information signal

              5.4.1. The blind spot information referred to in paragraph 5.3.1.1. above shall be an information signal that is noticeable and easily verifiable by the driver from the driver's seat. This information signal shall be visible by daylight and at night.

              5.4.2. The device emitting the information signal shall be located at the near side at a horizontal angle greater than 30° towards an axis parallel to the longitudinal median plane of the vehicle and going through the ocular reference point. If the driver's seating position is located on the near side of the vehicle, this value may be reduced.

              5.5. Warning signal

              5.5.1. The warning signal referred to in paragraph 5.3.1.2. above shall be a signal differing, e.g. in mode or activation strategy, from the information signal specified in paragraph 5.4.

              5.5.2. It shall be easily
