Note:  The three examples of approval marks, models D, E and F represent three possible variations of the marking of a lighting device when two or more lamps are part of the same unit of grouped, combined or reciprocally incorporated lamps.  This approval mark shows that the device was approved in the Netherlands (E 4) under approval number 3333 and comprising:

A retro-reflecting of class I A approved in accordance with the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 3; A rear direction indicator of category 2a approved in accordance with Regulation No. 6 in its original form; A red rear position lamp (R) approved in accordance with the 01 series of amendments of Regulation No. 7; A rear fog lamp (F) approved in accordance with Regulation No. 38 in its original form;

A reversing lamp (AR) approved in accordance with Regulation No. 23 in its original form;

A stop lamp with two levels of illumination (S2) approved in accordance with the 01 series of amendments to Regulation No. 7.

       TEST PROCEDURE - CLASS I A AND CLASS III A

       1. The applicant shall submit for approval ten samples which shall be tested in the chronological order indicated in annex 12.

       2. After verification of the general specifications (paragraph 6 of the Regulation) and the specifications of shape and dimensions (annex 5), the ten samples shall be subjected to the heat resistance test described in annex 10 to this Regulation and at least one hour after this test examined as to their colorimetric characteristics (annex 6) and CIL (annex 7) for an angle of divergence of 20' and an illumination angle V = H = 0 degrees or if necessary, in the position defined in annex 7, paragraphs 4 and 4.1.  The two retro- reflecting devices giving the minimum and maximum values shall then be fully tested as shown in annex 7. These two samples shall be kept by the laboratories for any further checks which may be found necessary.  The other eight samples shall be divided into four groups of two:

       First Group:

       The two samples shall be subjected successively to the water penetration test (Annex 8, paragraph 1.1.) and then, if this test is satisfactory, to the tests for resistance to fuels and lubricants (Annex 8, paragraphs 3 and 4).

       Second Group:

       The two samples shall, if necessary, be subjected to the corrosion test (annex 8, paragraph 2), and then to the abrasive-strength test of the rear face of the retro-reflecting device (annex 8, paragraph 5).

       Third Group:

       The two samples shall be subjected to the test for stability in time of the optical
