be performed under the following conditions:

          Condition A: Test shall be carried out with a fully charged electrical energy/power storage device.

          Condition B: Test shall be carried out with an electrical energy/power storage device in minimum state of charge (maximum discharge of capacity).

          The profile of the state of charge (SOC) of the electrical energy/power storage device during different stages of the Type I test is given in Appendix 1.

         3.2. Condition A

         3.2.1. The procedure shall start with the discharge of the electrical energy/power storage device as described in paragraph 3.2.1.1. below:

         3.2.1.1. Discharge of the electrical energy/power storage device

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

            (a) At a steady speed of 50 km/h until the fuel consuming engine of the HEV starts up;

            (b) Or, if a vehicle cannot 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);

            (c) Or with manufacturers' recommendation.

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

         3.2.2. Conditioning of the vehicle

         3.2.2.1. For conditioning compression-ignition engined vehicles the Part Two cycle of the applicable driving cycle shall be used in combination with the applicable gear shifting prescriptions as defined in paragraph 1.4. of this annex. Three consecutive cycles shall be driven.

         3.2.2.2. Vehicles fitted with positive-ignition engines shall be preconditioned with one Part One and two Part Two cycles of the applicable driving cycle in combination with the applicable gear shifting prescriptions as defined in paragraph 1.4. of this annex.

         3.2.2.3. 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, and the electrical energy/power storage device is fully charged as a result of the charging prescribed in paragraph 3.2.2.4. below.

         3.2.2.4. During soak, the electrical energy/power storage device shall be charged, using the normal overnight charging procedure as defined in paragraph 3.2.2.5. below.

         3.2.2.5. Application of a normal overnight charge

          The electrical energy/power storage device shall be charged according to the following procedure.

         3.2.2.5.1. Normal overnight charge procedure

          The charging is carried out:

            (a) With the on board charger if fitted; or

            (b) With an external
