control, if the action of key withdrawal activates the device it shall either necessitate a minimum movement of 2 mm before activation of the device or incorporate an override facility to prevent accidental removal or partial withdrawal of the key.

       5.10. Power assistance may be used only to activate the locking and/or unlocking action of the protective device. The device shall be kept in its operating position by mechanical means only.

       5.11. It shall not be possible to activate the motive power of the vehicle by normal means until the protective device has been deactivated.

       5.12. Not applicable.

       5.13. If the protective system is equipped with a driver warning feature it shall be activated, unless the protective device has been activated and any key removed by the operator, when the operator opens the driver's side door.

       6. PARTICULAR SPECIFICATIONS

        In addition to the general specifications prescribed in paragraph 5, the protective device shall comply with the particular conditions prescribed below:

       6.1 Protective devices acting on the steering

       6.1.1. A protective device acting on the steering shall block the steering.

       6.1.2. When the protective device is set to act, it shall not be possible to prevent the device from functioning.

       6.1.3. The protective device must continue to meet paragraphs 5.9., 6.1.1., 6.1.2. and 6.1.4., after it has undergone 2,500 locking cycles in each direction of the wear-producing test specified in Annex 3.

       6.1.4. The protective device shall, in its activated position, be strong enough to withstand, without damage to the steering mechanism likely to compromise safety, the application of a torque of 20 mdaN about the axis of the steering shaft in both directions under static conditions.

       6.1.5. If the protective device is such that the key can be removed in a position other than the position in which the steering is locked, it shall be so designed that the manoeuvre required to reach that position and remove the key cannot be effected inadvertently.

       6.2 Protective devices acting on the transmission

       6.2.1. A protective device acting on the transmission shall prevent the rotation of the vehicle's driving wheels.

       6.2.2. When the protective device is set to act, it shall not be possible to prevent the device from functioning.

       6.2.3. It shall not be possible for the transmission to be blocked inadvertently when the key is in the lock of the protective device, even if the device preventing starting of the engine has come into action or been set to act.

       6.2.4. The protective device shall be so designed and constructed that it remains fully effective even after some degree of wear as a result of 2,500 locking cycles in each direction.

       6.2.5. If the protective device is such that the key
