        5.2.6. the test instrumentation used for measuring the true vehicle speed shall be accurate to ± 0.5 per cent;

        5.2.6.1. the surface of a test track when used shall be flat and dry, and provide sufficient adhesion;

        5.2.6.2. if a roller dynamometer is used for the test, the diameter of the roller should be at least 0.4 m;

        5.3. The speed indicated shall not be less than the true speed of the vehicle.  At the test speeds specified in paragraph 5.2.5. above, there shall be the following relationship between the speed displayed (V1 ) and the true speed (V2).

        0  (V1 - V2)  0.1 V2 + 4 km/h

        6. MODIFICATIONS OF THE VEHICLE TYPE

        6.1. Every modification of the vehicle type shall be communicated to the administrative department which approved the vehicle type.  The department may then either:

        6.1.1. consider that the modifications made are unlikely to have an appreciable adverse effect and that in any case the vehicle still meets the requirements; or

        6.1.2. require a further test report from the technical service responsible for conducting the tests.

        6.2. Notice of confirmation or refusal of approval, accompanied by particulars of the modifications, shall be communicated by the procedure specified in paragraph 4.3. above to the Parties to the Agreement applying this Regulation.

7. CONFORMITY OF PRODUCTION

        7.1. The conformity of production procedures shall comply with those set out in the Agreement, Appendix 2 (E/ECE/324-E/ECE/TRANS/505/Rev.2), with the following requirements:

        7.2. Every vehicle approved under this Regulation shall be so manufactured as to conform to the type approved by meeting the requirements of the relevant part(s) of this Regulation.

        7.3. For each type of vehicle sufficient checks are carried out regarding the speedometer equipment and its installation; in particular, for each type of vehicle at least the test prescribed in annex 3 to this Regulation shall be carried out.

        7.4. The authority, which has granted type approval, may at any time verify the conformity control methods applied in each production facility.  The normal frequency of these verifications shall be once every two years.

        7.5. Where unsatisfactory results are found during verifications and checks pursuant to paragraph 7.4. above, the competent authority shall ensure that all necessary steps are taken to restore conformity of production as rapidly as possible.
