Text prepared by the International Automotive Lighting and Light Signalling Expert Group (GTB) to clarify the definition of “type”, with regard to manufacturer, trade names and marks and to introduce editorial improvements to the requirements for markings.

Although documents GRE/2013/45 and GRE-70-02 were adopted by GRE at its last (70th) session, this proposal consolidates the amendments and offers editorial improvements to the provisions concerning markings in Regulations Nos. 19, 23, 38, 65 and 119. These editorial improvements aim to clarify that the devices, and not only the samples, shall bear the trade name or mark and align the requirements with the other correctly worded regulations to avoid misunderstanding.

Proposal to reference the compliance requirements for installation contained in Regulations Nos. 48, 53, 72 and 86 into the Regulations 3, 4, 6, 7, 19, 23, 38, 50, 77, 87, 91, 98, 104, 112, 113, 119 and 123. This proposal is a revised version of document GRE/2013/55 discussed during the October 2013 GRE session.

Proposal to delete unnecessary markings for LED front fog lamps that have non-replaceable LED modules and to correct and clarify the requirements for colour measurement and ultraviolet (UV) testing of light emitting diode (LED) modules.

Revised text originally submitted to WP.29 for its November 2013 session, but returned by the Forum due to concerns over the Conformity of Production (CoP) provisions. This revised version deletes the CoP provisions and is submitted pending also a review by GRE at its October 2014 session. This supplement completes the deletion of distributed lighting systems (DLS), or rather light generators, from the regulation.
