the technical requirements and respecting the transitional provisions of Regulation No. 10 (EMC) by applying:

            (a) The 03 series of amendments for vehicles without a coupling system for charging the Rechargeable Electric Energy Storage System (traction batteries);

            (b) The 04 series of amendments for vehicles with a coupling system for charging the Rechargeable Electric Energy Storage System (traction batteries);

       5.1.15. When a vehicle is equipped with the means to indicate emergency braking, activation and de-activation of the emergency braking signal shall only be generated by the application of the service braking system when the following conditions are fulfilled:*

       5.1.15.1 The signal shall not be activated when the vehicle deceleration is below 6 m/s2 but it may be generated at any deceleration at or above this value, the actual value being defined by the vehicle manufacturer.

        The signal shall be de-activated at the latest when the deceleration has fallen below 2.5 m/s2.

*At the time of type approval, compliance with this requirement shall be confirmed by the vehicle manufacturer.

       5.1.15.2 The following conditions may also be used:

           (a)          The signal may be generated from a prediction of the vehicle deceleration resulting from the braking demand respecting the activation and de-activation thresholds defined in paragraph 5.1.15.1. above;

 or

            (b) The signal may be activated at a speed above 50 km/h when the antilock system is fully cycling (as defined in paragraph 9.1. of Annex 3) and deceleration is at least 2.5 m/s2. The deceleration may be generated from the prediction described in point (a). The signal shall be deactivated when the antilock system is no longer fully cycling.

       5.1.16. A means to deactivate the antilock brake system is not permitted.

       By derogation, vehicles which are suitable for off road driving and fitted with a riding mode selector allowing an "off-road" or "all terrain" mode may be fitted with a single means (e.g. switch, lever, button, menu option) to disable the antilock brake system function, which is only permitted under the following conditions:

         (a)    The vehicle is stationary; and

         (b)    The disablement of the antilock brake system function shall be the result of a deliberate action by the rider according to one of the following methods:
              (i)                 Simultaneous actuation of the antilock brake system on/off switch and the front, rear or combined brake system actuator (brake lever or pedal); or

              (ii)               The actuation of the antilock brake system on/off switch for a minimum of two seconds; or

              (iii)            The progression through at least two successive steps or levels of actuation of a rotating knob, a touch panel switch or a menu option selector;

         (c)    Disabling of the antilock brake system function shall only be allowed when the riding mode selector is in the
