ANNEX I
REQUIREMENTS
| 1. | Vehicles belonging to category M1 and those belonging to category N1 shall be so constructed as to be:
as determined by the procedures laid down in this Annex. |
| 2. | For the purposes of type-approval, the manufacturer shall submit a data presentation form duly completed, established in accordance with Annex A to the standard ISO 22628: 2002. It shall include the materials breakdown. It shall be accompanied by a listing of the dismantled component parts, declared by the manufacturer with respect to the dismantling stage, and the process he recommends for their treatment. |
| 3. | For the application of points 1 and 2, the manufacturer shall demonstrate to the satisfaction of the approval authority that the reference vehicles meet the requirements. The calculation method prescribed in Annex B to the standard ISO 22628: 2002 shall apply. However, the manufacturer must be in a position to demonstrate that any version within the vehicle type complies with the requirements of this Directive. |
| 4. | For the purposes of the selection of the reference vehicles, account shall be taken of the following criteria:
|
| 5. | Should the type-approval authority and the manufacturer fail jointly to identify the most problematic version within a type of vehicle, in terms of reusability, recyclability and recoverability, one reference vehicle shall be selected, within:
|
| 6. | For the purposes of calculations, tyres shall be considered as recyclable. |
| 7. | Masses shall be expressed in kg with one decimal place. The rates shall be calculated in percent with one decimal place, then rounded as follows:
|
| 8. | For the purposes of checking the calculations referred to in this Annex, the approval authority shall ensure that the data presentation form referred to in point 2 is coherent with the recommended strategy annexed to the certificate of compliance referred to in Article 6(1) of this Directive. |
| 9. | For the purposes of checks of the materials and masses of component parts, the manufacturer shall make available vehicles and component parts as deemed necessary by the type-approval authority. |
