a number of consecutive sequences in accordance with the requirements of paragraph 3.1.1.1. to paragraph 3.1.1.3.3. inclusive of this appendix.
              3.1.2. Option 2 test sequence
              3.1.2.1. Preconditioning
              The test vehicle shall be preconditioned according to paragraph 2.1.1. or paragraph 2.1.2. of Appendix 4 to this annex.
              3.1.2.2. REESS adjustment
              After preconditioning, soaking according to paragraph 2.1.3. of Appendix 4 to this annex shall be omitted and a break, during which the REESS is permitted to be adjusted, shall be set to a maximum duration of 60 minutes. A similar break shall be applied in advance of each test. Immediately after the end of this break, the requirements of paragraph 3.1.2.3. of this appendix shall be applied.
              Upon request of the manufacturer, an additional warm-up procedure may be conducted in advance of the REESS adjustment to ensure similar starting conditions for the correction coefficient determination. If the manufacturer requests this additional warm-up procedure, the identical warm-up procedure shall be applied repeatedly within the test sequence.
              3.1.2.3. Test procedure
              3.1.2.3.1. The driver-selectable mode for the applicable WLTP test cycle shall be selected according to paragraph 3. of Appendix 6 to this annex.
              3.1.2.3.2. For testing, the applicable WLTP test cycle according to paragraph 1.4.2. of this annex shall be driven.
              3.1.2.3.3. Unless stated otherwise in this appendix, the vehicle shall be tested according to the Type 1 test procedure described in Annex B6.
              3.1.2.3.4. To obtain a set of applicable WLTP test cycles that are required for the determination of the correction coefficients, the test may be followed by a number of consecutive sequences required according to paragraph 2.2. of this appendix consisting of paragraphs 3.1.2.2. and 3.1.2.3. of this appendix.
              3.2. NOVC-HEVs and NOVC-FCHVs
              For NOVC-HEVs and NOVC-FCHVs, one of the following test sequences according to Figure A8.App2/2 shall be used to measure all values that are necessary for the determination of the correction coefficients according to paragraph 2. of this appendix.

              3.2.1. Option 1 test sequence
              3.2.1.1. Preconditioning and soaking
              The test vehicle shall be preconditioned and soaked according to paragraph 3.3.1. of this annex.
              3.2.1.2. REESS adjustment
              Prior to the test procedure, according to paragraph 3.2.1.3. of this appendix, the manufacturer may adjust the REESS. The manufacturer shall provide evidence that the requirements for the beginning of the test according to paragraph 3.2.1.3. of this appendix are fulfilled.
              3.2.1.3. Test procedure
              3.2.1.3.1. The driver-selectable mode shall be selected according to paragraph 3. of Appendix 6 to this annex.
              3.2.1.3.2. For testing, the applicable WLTP test cycle according to paragraph 1.4.2. of this annex shall be driven.
              3.2.1.3.3. Unless stated otherwise in this appendix, the vehicle shall be tested according to the charge-sustaining
