5.2.2.                              Static testing must be as specified by Society of Automotive Engineers J879b Motor Vehicle Seating Systems, July 1968, but using the values specified in and the procedures applicable to this standard.
5.2.2.1.                        Distributed loads may be replaced by concentrated loads at the loading centroid.
5.2.2.2.                        Specified loads must be sustained for at least one second.
5.2.3.                              Notwithstanding the requirements of the test procedure specified in clause 5.2.2, the testing of seats must meet the requirements specified in Appendix A clause 6.3.3 and Appendix A clause 6.3.4.

   Annexes
                  Annex 1 Communication concerning the approval or refusal or extension or withdrawal of approval or production definitely discontinued of a vehicle type with regard to the strength of the seats and their anchorages, in the case either of seats fitted or capable of being fitted with head restraints or of seats not capable of being fitted with such devices and the characteristics of head restraints pursuant to Regulation No. 17

   Annex 2 Arrangements of approval marks
6.2.                                    The front seats of vehicles meeting the requirements of ADR 69/... are deemed to meet the requirement of paragraph 2 of annex 7 of Appendix A.

The requirements of Appendix A clause 6.2 must be met, except that instead of "longitudinally and rearwards to the upper part of the seat-back frame through a component simulating the back of the manikin shown in (Appendix A) annex 3", a force producing a moment of 53 daNm in relation to the R point may be applied directly to the upper cross member of the seat-back in a rearward longitudinal direction either:
6.3.1.                              horizontally; or
6.3.2.                              normal to the seat back.
