means of rear visibility or detection
                  Annex 3  Communication concerning the approval or refusal or extension or withdrawal of approval or production definitively discontinued of a type of device (Separate Technical Unit) for means of rear visibility, pursuant to Regulation No. 158
                  Annex 4  Communication concerning the approval or refusal or extension or withdrawal of approval or production definitively discontinued of a type of vehicle with regard to means of rear visibility or detection, pursuant to Regulation No. 158

6.2.                                    Paragraph 15.2.2 of Appendix A must be read as:
The close-proximity rear-view field of vision shall be established using ambinocular vision, the eyes being at the "driver's ocular points" as defined in paragraph 12.1. above. The fields of vision shall be determined when the vehicle is in running order as defined in the consolidated Resolution on the Construction of vehicles (R.E.3) (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/78/Rev.6, para. 2.2.5.4.), plus for M1 and N1 vehicles one front seat passenger (75 kg). When established through windows, the glazing shall have a total light transmission factor in accordance with UN Regulation No. 43, Annex 24.
In case of direct view from the driver's looking back ocular points the vertical position of rear seat headrests shall be set at the designed position of assumed to use or the highest position if the headrest has multiple position settings.

6.3.                                     Paragraph 16.1.1.4 of Appendix A must be read as:
Automatic change of view
When there is a risk of collision as determined by the RVCS, the field of view may change and focus on the collision area. The applicant must document, within its supporting information for the type approval or in the model report, the criteria its system uses to determine there is a risk of collision and include a logical justification that changing the focus of the view increases the safety.
         When the vehicle is not driving straight, the field of view may change following the vehicle trajectory.
6.4.                                    Paragraph 16.3 of Appendix A is omitted from this ADR
6.5.                                    In the Introduction and paragraphs 15.1 and 15.2.1.3 of Appendix A, "UN Regulation No. 46" should be read as "Appendix A to Australian Design Rule 14/02 – Rear Vision Mirrors".
6.6.                                    In paragraph 15.1.2 of Appendix A, "UN Regulation No. 79" should be read as Australian Design Rule 90/00 – Steering Systems".
6.7.                                    Paragraph 1.2.2 of Annex 7 to Appendix A must be read:
         Where, owing to the size of the reflecting surface, it is impossible to obtain measurements in the directions defined in paragraph 2.1.2.2.2. Of this regulation, the testing facility responsible for the tests may take measurements at the said point in two perpendicular directions
