         3.1.2.5. Test procedure

         3.1.2.5.1. The vehicle shall be started up by the means provided for normal use to the driver.  The first cycle starts on the initiation of the vehicle start-up procedure.

         3.1.2.5.2. Sampling shall begin (BS) before or at the initiation of the vehicle start up procedure and end on conclusion of the final idling period in the extra-urban cycle (Part Two, end of sampling (ES)).

         3.1.2.5.3. The vehicle shall be driven according to Annex 4, or in case of special gear shifting strategy according to the manufacturer's instructions, as incorporated in the drivers' handbook of production vehicles and indicated by a technical gear shift instrument (for drivers' information).  For these vehicles the gear shifting points prescribed in Annex 4, Appendix 1 are not applied.  For the pattern of the operating curve the description according to paragraph 2.3.3. in Annex 4 shall apply.

         3.1.2.5.4. The exhaust gases shall be analyzed according to Annex 4.

         3.1.2.6. The test results shall be compared to the limits prescribed in paragraph 5.3.1.4. of this Regulation and the average emission of each pollutant for Condition A shall be calculated (M1i).

         3.1.3. Condition B

         3.1.3.1. Conditioning of vehicle

         3.1.3.1.1. For compression-ignition engined vehicles the Part Two cycle described in Appendix 1 of Annex 4 shall be used.  Three consecutive cycles shall be driven according to paragraph 3.1.3.4.3. below.

         3.1.3.1.2. Vehicles fitted with positive-ignition engines shall be preconditioned with one Part One and two Part Two driving cycles according to paragraph 3.1.3.4.3. below.

         3.1.3.2. The electrical energy/power storage device of the vehicle shall be discharged while driving (on the test track, on a chassis dynamometer, etc.):

              – at a steady speed of 50 km/h until the fuel consuming engine of the HEV starts up,

              – or if a vehicle can not reach a steady speed of 50 km/h without starting up the fuel consuming engine, the speed shall be reduced until the vehicle can run a lower steady speed where the fuel consuming engine just does not start up for a defined time/distance (to be specified between technical service and manufacturer),

            –  or with manufacturer's recommendation.

          The fuel consuming engine shall be stopped within 10 seconds of it being automatically started.

         3.1.3.3. After this preconditioning, and before testing, the vehicle shall be kept in a room in which the temperature remains relatively constant between 293 and 303 K (20 °C and 30° C).  This conditioning shall be carried out for at least six hours and continue until the engine oil temperature and coolant, if any, are within ± 2 K of the temperature of the room.

         3.1.3.4. Test procedure

         3.1.3.4.1. The vehicle shall be started up by the means provided for normal use to the
