I to IV camera-monitor devices (see Annex 12)

               Unless otherwise provided in this Regulation, the definitions and symbols used in paragraph 16.1. are in accordance with ISO 16505:2015, Chapters 3 and 4.

               Unless otherwise provided in this Regulation, the requirements given in paragraph 16.1. shall be verified according to the test procedures given in ISO 16505:2015, Chapter 7, where available.

              16.1.1. Intended use, activation and deactivation

              The intended use shall be mentioned within the operator's manual. The procedure for activation and deactivation of the CMS of Classes II and III shall allow a safe use of the vehicle.

              The CMS shall be activated when the vehicle is opened (e.g. unlocking of the doors, opening of a front door or any other means by the choice of the manufacturer).

              In addition to the requirements mentioned in paragraph 15.2.1.1.2., after each engine switch-off the system shall remain operational for a period of at least T1 = 120 s. After T1 period and for a period of at least T2 = (420-T1) seconds the system shall be able to be reactivated such that the required field of vision is made available within 1 second by manoeuvring any front door opening automatically and, if available, manually by the driver. After T2 period the system shall be able to be reactivated within 7 seconds (e.g. by initiating any front door opening process).

              Notwithstanding the provisions above, any other concept to activate or deactivate the system shall be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Technical Service within the safety concept that is provided according to the provisions in Annex 12, paragraph 2.

              16.1.1.1. Default view

              In default view the CMS shall show the field of view at least as defined in paragraph 15.2.4., with at least the required magnification and resolution as defined in paragraph 16.1.3.

              In the case of mirror and CMS dual function system of Class I, the CMS mode shall be set by the driver. Activation and deactivation device shall be located directly on the mirror and CMS dual function system.

    16.1.1.1.1 Temporarily modified view

              To enable an improved view in special manoeuvres (e.g. where in the case of conventional mirrors the field of view is usually changed by the driver moving their head to achieve incident angle to the mirror), it shall be permitted to change temporarily the field of view, so that the requirements laid down in paragraphs 15.2.4. (field of vision) and 16.1.3. (magnification and resolution) may not be fulfilled during this temporarily modified view.

              The operation of this function shall be intuitive to the driver and not cause additional safety risks such as additional blind spots. In the case of articulated vehicles, this includes an adaptation of the modified
