the case of a 'Control' which solely modulates 'Stored Energy', full stroke of the 'Control' is suddenly applied , when braking from an initial speed of 40 km/h and also from an initial speed of 80 km/h (or greater) on a road surface having approximately uniform surface friction on both sides of the vehicle.

       1.1.1    This test is to be performed with the vehicle laden to 'Lightly Loaded Test Mass 35/...' and again with the vehicle laden to 'Maximum Loaded Test Mass 35/...'.

       1.1.2    Brief periods of locking of the wheels will, however, be allowed but stability must not be affected.

       1.1.3    The general test conditions from part 7 and the particular test conditions from clauses 7.3 and 7.6 including the requirements for deceleration must be used except that the requirements of this clause must be met on each test.

       1.1.4    These tests can be combined with those required in clauses 7.3 and 7.6. and can be conducted at any point in the brake test sequence.

       1.2    Any break in the supply of electricity to the 'Antilock System' and any electrical failure of the 'Antilock System' must be signalled to the driver by an optical warning signal appropriately labelled and located in accordance with clause 4.2.12.  The lamp may be common with or distinct and separate from any 'Service Brake System' failure 'Visible Indicator' lamp.

       1.2.1    In case of NC category vehicles, the warning signal must be;

       1.2.1.1  red or yellow if after the failure of 'Antilock System', the vehicle meets the performance requirements of all tests specified in part 7.

       1.2.1.2   red, if after the failure of 'Antilock System', the vehicle does not meet the performance requirements of all tests specified in part 7.

       1.2.2    In case of vehicles other than NC category vehicles, the warning light must be red or yellow.

       1.2.3   The warning signal must light up when the 'Antilock System' is energised and must go off after not less than 2 seconds or at the latest when the vehicle reaches a speed of 15 km/h and no defect is present.

       1.3     Where a vehicle is equipped to tow a trailer with an 'ATM' of more than 4.5 tonnes and it is fitted with an electrical connection for the 'Antilock System':
       1.3.1    The vehicle must have a permanent electrical supply system for connection to trailers using a special connector conforming to DIN Standard 72570 configured for 12 volt operation or ISO/DIN 7638:1996, 1997 or 2003 configured for 12 or 24 volt operation. The voltage must be marked on the plug and a warning label must be provided in the cabin to warn the driver. The power supply must provide DC current having a nominal voltage level of
