(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 June 2009 on type-approval of motor vehicles and engines with respect to emissions from heavy duty vehicles (Euro VI) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information and amending Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 and Directive 2007/46/EC and repealing Directives 80/1269/EEC, 2005/55/EC and 2005/78/EC(1), and in particular Articles 4(3), 5(4) and 6(2) and Article 12 thereof,

Having regard to Directive 2007/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 September 2007 establishing a framework for the approval of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles (Framework Directive)(2), and in particular Article 39(7) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 is one of the separate regulatory acts under the type-approval procedure laid down by Directive 2007/46/EC.

(2) Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 requires new heavy duty vehicles and engines to comply with new emission limits and introduces additional requirements on access to information. The technical requirements will apply from 31 December 2012 for new types of vehicles and from 31 December 2013 for all new vehicles. The specific technical provisions necessary to implement Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 should be adopted. Therefore, the present Regulation aims at setting the requirements necessary for the type-approval of Euro VI specification vehicles and engines.

(3) Article 5(4) of Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 requires the Commission to adopt implementing legislation setting out specific technical requirements relating to the control of emissions from vehicles. Therefore, it is appropriate to adopt those requirements.

(4) Following the adoption of the main requirements for type-approval of heavy duty motor vehicles and engines by Regulation (EC) No 595/2009, it is necessary to establish administrative provisions for that EC type-approval. Those administrative requirements should include provisions for conformity of production and in-service conformity to ensure continued good performance of production vehicles and engines.

(5) In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 595/2009, it is also necessary to establish requirements to ensure that vehicle on-board diagnostic (hereinafter ‘OBD’) and vehicle repair and maintenance information is readily accessible, so as to ensure that independent operators have access to such information.

(6) In accordance with Regulation (EC) No 595/2009, the measures provided for in this Regulation regarding access to vehicle repair and maintenance information, information for diagnostic tools and the compatibility of replacement parts with vehicle OBD systems, should not be restricted to emission-related components and systems but cover all aspects of a vehicle subject to type-approval within the scope of this Regulation.

(7) In accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 595/2009, the Commission should adopt measures for implementing the use of portable measurement systems for verifying the actual in-use emissions and verifying and limiting the off-cycle emissions. It is therefore necessary to set out, within an appropriate timeframe, provisions on off-cycle emissions both at type-approval and for verifying and limiting the off-cycle emissions in actual use of the vehicles. For the purpose of in-service conformity a procedure using portable emissions measurement systems (hereinafter ‘PEMS’) should be introduced. The PEMS procedures introduced through this Regulation should be subject to an assessment on the basis of which the Commission should be empowered to amend the in-use provisions.

(8) In accordance with Article 5(4)(d) of Regulation (EC) No 595/2009, it is necessary to establish requirements for type-approval of replacement pollution control devices so as to ensure that they function correctly.

(9) In accordance with Article 5(4)(d) of Regulation (EC) No 595/2009, it is necessary to establish requirements for determining deterioration factors to be used for verifying the durability of engine systems. In addition and subject to the results of research and development on methods for bench ageing of engine systems the Commission should be empowered to amend the provisions for determining deterioration factors.

(10) As provided for by Article 12(1) of Regulation (EC) No 595/2009, new limit values and a measurement procedure for the number of particles emitted should be introduced. The measurement procedure should be based on the work of the Particulate Measurement Programme (PMP) of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (hereinafter ‘UN/ECE’).

(11) In accordance with Article 12(2) of Regulation (EC) No 595/2009, limit values for the World Harmonized Transient Driving Cycle (hereinafter ‘WHTC’) and the Worldwide Harmonised Steady state Cycle (hereinafter ‘WHSC’) as specified in Annex 4B to Regulation No 49 of the Economic Commission for Europe of the United Nations (UN/ECE) — Uniform provisions concerning the measures to be taken against the emission of gaseous and particulate pollutants from compression-ignition engines for use in vehicles, and the emission of gaseous pollutants from positive-ignition engines fuelled with natural gas or liquefied petroleum gas for use in vehicles(3) should be introduced.

(12) The Commission should assess the need for specific measures regarding multi-setting engines, and should be empowered to amend the provisions in accordance with the results of that assessment.

(13) Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 and Directive 2007/46/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.

(14) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Technical Committee – Motor Vehicles,

ANNEX I U.K. ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS FOR EC TYPE-APPROVAL

1. REQUIREMENTS ON FUEL RANGE U.K.

1.1. Requirements on universal fuel range type-approval U.K.

A universal fuel range approval shall be granted subject to the requirements specified in points 1.1.1 to 1.1.6.1.

1.1.1. The parent engine shall meet the requirements of this Regulation on the appropriate reference fuels specified in Annex IX. Specific requirements shall apply to natural gas fuelled engines, as laid down in point 1.1.3. U.K.

1.1.2. If the manufacturer permits to operate the engine family to run on market fuels not included in Directive 98/70/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council(6) and the EN 228 CEN standards in the case of unleaded petrol and EN 590 CEN standard in the case of diesel, such as running on B100, the manufacturer shall, in addition to the requirements in point 1.1.1: U.K.

(a)

declare the fuels the engine family is capable to run on in point 3.2.2.2.1 of Part 1 of Appendix 4;

(b)

demonstrate the capability of the parent engine to meet the requirements of this Regulation on the fuels declared;

(c)

be liable to meet the requirements of in-service conformity specified in Annex II on the fuels declared including any blend between the declared fuels and the market fuels included in Directive 98/70/EC and the relevant CEN standards.

1.1.3. In the case of a natural gas fuelled engine the manufacturer shall demonstrate the parent engines capability to adapt to any fuel composition that may occur on the market within the European Union. U.K.

In the case of natural gas there are generally two types of fuel, high calorific fuel (H-gas) and low calorific fuel (L-gas), but with a significant spread within both ranges; they differ significantly in their energy content expressed by the Wobbe Index and in their λ-shift factor (S_λ). Natural gases with a λ-shift factor between 0,89 and 1,08 (0,89 ≤ S_λ ≤ 1,08) are considered to belong to H-range, while natural gases with a λ-shift factor between 1,08 and 1,19 (1,08 ≤ S_λ ≤ 1,19) are considered to belong to L-range. The composition of the reference fuels reflects the extreme variations of S_λ.

The parent engine shall meet the requirements of this Regulation on the reference fuels G_R (fuel 1) and G₂₅ (fuel 2), as specified in Annex IX, without any readjustment to the fuelling between the two tests. One adaptation run over one WHTC hot cycle without measurement is permitted after the change of the fuel. After the adaptation run the engine shall be cooled down in accordance with Section 7.6.1 of Annex 4B to UN/ECE Regulation No 49.

1.1.3.1. At the manufacturer's request the engine may be tested on a third fuel (fuel 3) if the λ-shift factor (S_λ) lies between 0,89 (that is the lower range of G_R) and 1,19 (that is the upper range of G₂₅), for example when fuel 3 is a market fuel. The results of this test may be used as a basis for the evaluation of the conformity of the production. U.K.

1.1.4. In the case of an engine fuelled with natural gas which is self adaptive for the range of H-gases on the one hand and the range of L-gases on the other hand, and which switches between the H-range and the L-range by means of a switch, the parent engine shall be tested on the relevant reference fuel as specified in Annex IX for each range, at each position of the switch. The fuels are G_R (fuel 1) and G₂₃ (fuel 3) for the H-range of gases and G₂₅ (fuel 2) and G₂₃ (fuel 3) for the L-range of gases. The parent engine shall meet the requirements of this Regulation at both positions of the switch without any readjustment to the fuelling between the two tests at each position of the switch. One adaptation run over one WHTC hot cycle without measurement is permitted after the change of the fuel. After the adaptation run the engine shall be cooled down in accordance with Section 7.6.1 of Annex 4B to UN/ECE Regulation No 49. U.K.

1.1.4.1. At the manufacturer's request the engine may be tested on a third fuel instead of G₂₃ (fuel 3) if the λ-shift factor (S_λ) lies between 0,89 (that is the lower range of G_R) and 1,19 (that is the upper range of G₂₅), for example when fuel 3 is a market fuel. The results of this test may be used as a basis for the evaluation of the conformity of the production. U.K.

1.1.5. In the case of natural gas engines, the ratio of the emission results ‘r’ shall be determined for each pollutant as follows: U.K.

, or

, and

1.1.6. In the case of LPG the manufacturer shall demonstrate the parent engines capability to adapt to any fuel composition that may occur across the market. U.K.

In the case of LPG there are variations in C₃/C₄ composition. These variations are reflected in the reference fuels. The parent engine shall meet the emission requirements on the reference fuels A and B as specified in Annex IX without any readjustment to the fuelling between the two tests. One adaptation run over one WHTC hot cycle without measurement is permitted after the change of the fuel. After the adaptation run the engine shall be cooled down in accordance with Section 7.6.1 of Annex 4B to UN/ECE Regulation No 49.

1.1.6.1. The ratio of emission results ‘r’ shall be determined for each pollutant as follows: U.K.

[F1 1.2. Requirements on restricted fuel range type-approval in case of positive-ignition engines fuelled with natural gas or LPG U.K.

1.2.1. Exhaust emissions type-approval of an engine running on natural gas and laid out for operation on either the range of H-gases or on the range of L-gases. U.K.

The parent engine shall be tested on the relevant reference fuel, as specified in Annex IX, for the relevant range. The fuels are G_R (fuel 1) and G₂₃ (fuel 3) for the H-range of gases and G₂₅ (fuel 2) and G₂₃ (fuel 3) for the L-range of gases. The parent engine shall meet the requirements of this Regulation without any readjustment to the fuelling between the two tests. One adaptation run over one WHTC hot cycle without measurement is permitted after the change of the fuel. After the adaptation run the engine shall be cooled down in accordance with Section 7.6.1 of Annex 4B to UN/ECE Regulation No 49.

1.2.1.1. At the manufacturer's request the engine may be tested on a third fuel instead of G₂₃ (fuel 3) if the λ-shift factor (S_λ) lies between 0,89 (that is the lower range of G_R) and 1,19 (that is the upper range of G₂₅), for example when fuel 3 is a market fuel. The results of this test may be used as a basis for the evaluation of the conformity of the production. U.K.

The parent engine shall meet the emission requirements on the reference fuels G_R and G₂₅ in the case of natural gas, or the reference fuels A and B in the case of LPG, as specified in Annex IX. Fine tuning of the fuelling system is allowed between the tests. This fine tuning will consist of a recalibration of the fuelling database, without any alteration to either the basic control strategy or the basic structure of the database. If necessary the exchange of parts that are directly related to the amount of fuel flow such as injector nozzles is allowed.

1.2.2.1. At the manufacturer's request the engine may be tested on the reference fuels G_R and G₂₃, or on the reference fuels G₂₅ and G₂₃, in which case the type-approval is only valid for the H-range or the L-range of gases respectively. U.K.

1.2.2.2. On delivery to the customer the engine shall bear a label as specified in Section 3.3 stating for which fuel composition the engine has been calibrated. U.K.

At the manufacturer’s request, the tests may be carried out in accordance with Appendix 3 to this Annex.

7.2.2.3. On the basis of tests of the engine by sampling as set out in point 7.2.2.2, the series production of the engines under consideration is regarded as conforming where a pass decision is reached for all the pollutants and as non-conforming where a fail decision is reached for one pollutant, in accordance with the test criteria applied in the appropriate Appendix. U.K.

When a pass decision has been reached for one pollutant, this decision may not be changed as a consequence of a result from any additional tests made in order to reach a decision for the other pollutants.

If a pass decision is not reached for all the pollutants and if no fail decision is reached for any pollutant, a test is carried out on another engine (see Figure 1).

If no decision is reached, the manufacturer may at any time decide to stop testing. In that case a fail decision is recorded.

ANNEX II U.K. CONFORMITY OF IN-SERVICE ENGINES OR VEHICLES

1. INTRODUCTION U.K.

1.1. This Annex sets out requirements for checking and demonstrating the conformity of in-service engines and vehicles. U.K.

2. PROCEDURE FOR IN-SERVICE CONFORMITY U.K.

2.1. The conformity of in-service vehicles or engines of an engine family shall be demonstrated by testing vehicles on the road operated over their normal driving patterns, conditions and payloads. The in-service conformity test shall be representative for vehicles operated on their real driving routes, with their normal load and with the usual professional driver of the vehicle. When the vehicle is operated by a driver other than the usual professional driver of the particular vehicle, this alternative driver shall be skilled and trained to operate vehicles of the category subject to be tested. U.K.

2.2. If the normal in-service conditions of a particular vehicle are considered to be incompatible with the proper execution of the tests, the manufacturer or the approval authority may request that alternative driving routes and payloads are used. U.K.

2.3. The manufacturer shall demonstrate to the approval authority that the chosen vehicle, driving patterns, conditions and payloads are representative for the engine family. The requirements as specified in points 4.1 and 4.5 shall be used to determine whether the driving patterns and payloads are acceptable for in-service conformity testing. U.K.

2.4. The manufacturer shall report the schedule and the sampling plan for conformity testing at the time of the initial type-approval of a new engine family. U.K.

2.5. Vehicles without a communication interface which permits the collection of the necessary ECU data as specified in points 5.2.1 and 5.2.2 of Annex I, with missing data or with a non-standard data protocol shall be considered as non-compliant. U.K.

2.6. Vehicles where the collection of ECU data influences the vehicle emissions or performance shall be considered as non-compliant. U.K.

3. ENGINE OR VEHICLE SELECTION U.K.

3.1. After the granting of type-approval for an engine family the manufacturer shall perform in-service testing on this engine family within 18 months from first registration of a vehicle fitted with an engine from that family. In case of multistage type-approval first registration means first registration of a completed vehicle. U.K.

The testing shall be repeated at least every 2 years for each engine family periodically on vehicles over their useful life period as specified in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 595/2009.

At the request of the manufacturer the testing may stop 5 years after the end of production.

3.1.1. With a minimum sample size of three engines the sampling procedure shall be set so that the probability of a lot passing a test with 20 % of the vehicles or engines defective is 0,90 (producer’s risk = 10 %) while the probability of a lot being accepted with 60 % of the vehicles or engines defective is 0,10 (consumer’s risk = 10 %). U.K.

3.1.2. The test statistic quantifying the cumulative number of non-conforming tests at the n-th test shall be determined for the sample. U.K.

3.1.3. The pass or fail decision of the lot shall be made according to the following requirements: U.K.

(a)

if the test statistic is less than or equal to the pass decision number for the sample size given in Table 1, a pass decision is reached for the lot;

(b)

if the test statistic is greater than or equal to the fail decision number for the sample size given in Table 1, a fail decision is reached for the lot;

(c)

otherwise, an additional engine is tested according to this Annex and the calculation procedure is applied to the sample increased by one more unit.

In Table 1 the pass and fail decision numbers are calculated by means of the International Standard ISO 8422/1991.

3.2. Data consistency checks U.K.

3.2.1. Analysers and EFM data U.K.

The consistency of the data (exhaust mass flow measured by the EFM and gas concentrations) shall be verified using a correlation between the measured fuel flow from the ECU and the fuel flow calculated using the formula in Section 8.4.1.6 of Annex 4B to UN/ECE Regulation No 49.

4.1. Averaging window principle U.K.

The emissions shall be integrated using a moving averaging window method, based on the reference CO₂ mass or the reference work.

The moving average calculations are conducted with a time increment Δt equal to the data sampling period. These sub-sets used to average the emissions data are referred to as ‘averaging windows’ in the following Sections.

Any Section of invalidated data shall not be considered for the calculation of the work or CO₂ mass and the emissions of the averaging window.

The following data shall be considered as invalidated data:

If the calculation results in a value of less than 1,00 for a multiplicative DF, or less than 0,00 for an additive DF, then the deterioration factor shall be 1,0 or 0,00, respectively.

An example for determination of deterioration factors by using linear regression is shown in Figure 1.

Mixing of multiplicative and additive deterioration factors within one set of pollutants shall not be permitted.

In accordance with point 3.2.1.4, if it has been agreed that only one test cycle (hot WHTC or WHSC) be run at each test point and the other test cycle (hot WHTC or WHSC) run only at the beginning and end of the service accumulation schedule, the deterioration factor calculated for the test cycle that has been run at each test point shall be applicable also for the other test cycle.

In order to receive an extension of an EC type-approval for a vehicle in respect of its engine type approved under this Regulation to a vehicle with a reference mass exceeding 2 380 kg but not exceeding 2 610 kg the manufacturer shall meet the requirements of Annex XII to Commission Regulation (EC) No 692/2008(10) with the exceptions specified below. U.K.

2.1.1. Section 2.2.1 of Annex XII to Regulation (EC) No 692/2008 shall be understood as referring to the reference fuels described in Annex IX. U.K.

2.1.2. Section 5.2.4 of UN/ECE Regulation 101 referred to in point 2.3 of Annex XII to Regulation (EC) No 692/2008 shall be understood as follows: U.K.

(1)

density: measured on the test fuel according to ISO 3675 or an equivalent method. For petrol, diesel, ethanol (E85) and ethanol for dedicated C.I. engines (ED95) the density measured at 288 K (15 °C) shall be used; for LPG and natural gas/biomethane a reference density will be used, as follows:

• 0,538 kg/litre for LPG.

• 0,654 kg/m³ for NG.

(2)

hydrogen-carbon-oxygen ratio: fixed values shall be used which are:

• C₁H_1,93O_0,032 for petrol (E10),

• C₁H_1,86O_0,006 for diesel (B7),

• C₁H_2,525 for LPG (liquefied petroleum gas),

• CH₄ for NG (natural gas) and biomethane,

• C₁H_2,74O_0,385 for ethanol (E85),

• C₁H_2,92O_0,46 for ethanol for dedicated C.I. engines (ED95).

2.1.3. Point 1.4.3 of Annex 6 to UN/ECE Regulation 101 referred to in Section 3.3 of Annex XII to Regulation (EC) No 692/2008 shall be understood as: U.K.

‘1.4.3.

The fuel consumption, expressed in litres per 100 km (in the case of petrol, LPG, ethanol (E85 and ED95) and diesel) or in m³ per 100 km (in the case of NG/biomethane) is calculated by means of the following formulae:

(a)

for vehicles with a positive-ignition engine fuelled with petrol (E10):

FC = (0,120/D) · [(0,831 · HC) + (0,429 · CO) + (0,273 · CO₂)]

(b)

for vehicles with a positive-ignition engine fuelled with LPG:

FC_norm = (0,1212/0,538) · [(0,825 · HC) + (0,429 · CO) + (0,273 · CO₂)]

If the composition of the fuel used for the test differs from the composition that is assumed for the calculation of the normalised consumption, on the manufacturer’s request a correction factor cf may be applied, as follows:

FC_norm = (0,1212/0,538) · (cf) · [(0,825 · HC) + (0,429 · CO) + (0,273 · CO₂)]

The correction factor cf, which may be applied, is determined as follows:

cf = 0,825 + 0,0693 n_actual

where:

n_actual is the actual H/C ratio of the fuel used.

(c)

for vehicles with a positive-ignition engine fuelled with NG/biomethane:

FC_norm = (0,1336/0,654) · [(0,749 · HC) + (0,429 · CO) + (0,273 · CO₂)]

(d)

for vehicles with a positive-ignition engine fuelled with ethanol (E85):

FC = (0,1742/D) · [(0,574 · HC) + (0,429 · CO) + (0,273 · CO₂)]

(e)

for vehicles with a compression-ignition engine fuelled with diesel (B7):

FC = (0,1165/D) · [(0,859 · HC) + (0,429 · CO) + (0,273 · CO₂)]

(f)

for vehicles with a dedicated compression-ignition engine fuelled with ethanol (ED95):

FC = (0,186/D) · [(0,538 · HC) + (0,429 · CO) + (0,273 · CO₂)]

In these formulae:

FC

is the fuel consumption in litre per 100 km (in the case of petrol, ethanol, LPG, diesel or biodiesel) or in m³ per 100 km (in the case of natural gas)

HC

is the measured emission of hydrocarbons in g/km

CO

is the measured emission of carbon monoxide in g/km

CO₂

is the measured emission of carbon dioxide in g/km

D

is the density of the test fuel.

In the case of gaseous fuels this is the density at 288K (15 °C)’.

2.1.4. The reporting requirements in Section 3.4 of Annex XII to Regulation (EC) No 692/2008 shall be understood as referring to Appendix 4 to Annex I to this Regulation. U.K.

Technical data on fuels for testing compression-ignition engines

Type: Diesel (B7)
a The values quoted in the specifications are ‘true values’. In establishment of their limit values the terms of ISO 4259 Petroleum products — Determination and application of precision data in relation to methods of test have been applied and in fixing a minimum value, a minimum difference of 2R above zero has been taken into account; in fixing a maximum and minimum value, the minimum difference is 4R (R = reproducibility). Notwithstanding this measure, which is necessary for technical reasons, the manufacturer of fuels shall nevertheless aim at a zero value where the stipulated maximum value is 2R and at the mean value in the case of quotations of maximum and minimum limits. Should it be necessary to clarify whether a fuel meets the requirements of the specifications, the terms of ISO 4259 shall be applied.
b The range for cetane number is not in accordance with the requirements of a minimum range of 4R. However, in the case of a dispute between fuel supplier and fuel user, the terms of ISO 4259 may be used to resolve such disputes provided replicate measurements, of sufficient number to archive the necessary precision, are made in preference to single determinations.

To complement the requirements specified in this Annex concerning the driver warning and inducement activation and deactivation mechanisms, this Appendix specifies the technical requirements for an implementation of those activation and deactivation mechanisms consistent with the OBD provisions of Annex X. U.K.

All definitions used in Annex X are applicable to this Appendix.

2. ACTIVATION AND DEACTIVATION MECHANISMS OF THE DRIVER WARNING SYSTEM U.K.

2.1. The driver warning system shall be activated when the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) associated with a malfunction justifying its activation has the status defined in Table 1. U.K.

Table 1

Activation of the driver warning system

Failure type	DTC status for activation of the warning system
Poor reagent quality	confirmed and active
Low reagent consumption	potential (if detected after 10 hours), potential or confirmed and active otherwise
Absence of dosing	confirmed and active
Impeded EGR valve	confirmed and active
Malfunction of the monitoring system	confirmed and active

2.1.1. If the counter associated with the relevant failure is not at zero, and is consequently indicating that the monitor has detected a situation where the malfunction may have occurred for a second or subsequent time, the driver warning system shall be activated when the DTC has the status ‘potential’. U.K.

2.2. The driver warning system shall be deactivated when the diagnostic system concludes that the malfunction relevant to that warning is no longer present or when the information, including DTCs relative to the failures, justifying its activation is erased by a scan-tool. U.K.

2.2.1 Erasing of failure information by means of a scan-tool U.K.

2.2.1.1. Erasing of information, including DTCs relative to failures justifying the activation of a driver warning signal and of their associated data, by means of a scan-tool shall be performed in accordance with Annex 9B to UN/ECE Regulation No 49. U.K.

2.2.1.2. The erasing of failure information shall only be possible under ‘engine-off’ conditions. U.K.

2.2.1.3. When failure information, including DTCs, is erased, any counter associated with these failures and which is specified in this Annex as one that must not be erased shall not be erased. U.K.

3. ACTIVATION AND DEACTIVATION MECHANISM OF THE DRIVER INDUCEMENT SYSTEM U.K.

3.1. The driver inducement system shall be activated when the warning system is active and the counter relevant to the type of malfunction justifying its activation has reached the value specified in Table 2. U.K.

3.2. The driver inducement system shall be deactivated when the system no longer detects a malfunction justifying its activation, or if the information, including the DTCs, relative to the failures justifying its activation has been erased by a scan-tool or maintenance tool. U.K.

3.3. The driver warning and inducement systems shall be immediately activated or deactivated as appropriate in accordance with the provisions of Section 6 after assessment of the reagent quantity in the reagent tank. In that case, the activation or deactivation mechanisms shall not depend upon the status of any associated DTC. U.K.

4. COUNTER MECHANISM U.K.

4.1. General U.K.

4.1.1. [F1 To comply with the requirements of this Annex, the system shall contain at least five counters to record the number of hours during which the engine has been operated while the system has detected any of the following:] U.K.

(a)

an incorrect reagent quality;

(b)

an incorrect reagent consumption;

(c)

an interruption of reagent dosing activity;

(d)

an impeded EGR valve;

(e)

a failure of the monitoring system as defined in point (b) of Section 9.1.

4.1.2. Each of these counters shall count up to the maximum value provided in a 2 byte counter with 1 hour resolution, and shall hold that value unless the conditions allowing the counter to be reset to zero are met. U.K.

4.1.3. A manufacturer may use a single or multiple monitoring system counters. U.K.

A single counter may accumulate the number of hours of 2 or more different malfunctions relevant to that type of counter.

4.1.3.1. When the manufacturer decides to use multiple monitoring system counters, the system shall be capable of assigning a specific monitoring system counter to each malfunction that is relevant, in accordance with this Annex, to that type of counter. U.K.

4.2. Principle of counter mechanisms U.K.

4.2.1. Each of the counters shall operate as follows: U.K.

4.2.1.1.

If starting from zero, the counter shall begin counting as soon as a malfunction relevant to that counter is detected and the corresponding diagnostic trouble code (DTC) has the status described in Table 1.

4.2.1.2.

The counter shall halt and hold its current value if a single monitoring event occurs and the malfunction that originally activated the counter is no longer detected or if the failure has been erased by a scan-tool or a maintenance tool.

4.2.1.2.1.

If the counter stops counting when the severe inducement system is active, the counter shall be kept frozen at the value defined in Table 2.

4.2.1.2.2.

In the case of a single monitoring system counter, that counter shall continue counting if a malfunction relevant to that counter has been detected and its corresponding Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) has the status ‘confirmed and active’. It shall halt and hold the value specified in Section 4.2.1.2, or 4.2.1.2.1 as appropriate, if no malfunction that would justify the counter activation is detected or if all the failures relevant to that counter have been erased by a scan-tool or a maintenance tool.

Table 2

Counters and inducement

	DTC status for first activation of the counter	Counter value for low-level inducement	Counter value for severe inducement	Frozen value held by the counter during the period just after severe inducement
Reagent quality counter	confirmed and active	10 hours	20 hours	18 hours
Reagent consumption counter	potential or confirmed and active (see Table 1)	10 hours	20 hours	18 hours
Dosing counter	confirmed and active	10 hours	20 hours	18 hours
EGR valve counter	confirmed and active	36 hours	100 hours	95 hours
Monitoring system counter	confirmed and active	36 hours	100 hours	95 hours

4.2.1.3.

Once frozen, the counter shall be reset to zero when the monitors relevant to that counter have run at least once to completion of their monitoring cycle without having detected a malfunction and no malfunction relevant to that counter has been detected during 36 engine operating hours since the counter was last held (see Figure 1).

4.2.1.4.

The counter shall continue counting from the point at which it had been held if a malfunction relevant to that counter is detected during a period when the counter is frozen (see Figure 1).

Reactivation and resetting to zero of a counter after a period when its value has been frozen

5. ILLUSTRATION OF THE ACTIVATION AND DEACTIVATION AND COUNTER MECHANISMS U.K.

5.1. This Section illustrates the activation and deactivation and counter mechanisms for some typical cases. The figures and descriptions given in Sections 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4 are provided solely for the purposes of illustration in this Annex and should not be referenced as examples of either the requirements of this Regulation or as definitive statements of the processes involved. For simplification purposes, for example, the fact that the warning system will also be active when the inducement system is active has not been mentioned in the illustrations given. U.K.

5.2. Figure 2 illustrates the operation of the activation and deactivation mechanisms when monitoring the reagent availability for five cases: U.K.

(a)

use case 1: the driver continues operating the vehicle in spite of the warning until vehicle operation is disabled;

(b)

repair case 1 (‘adequate’ refilling): the driver refills the reagent tank so that a level above the 10 % threshold is reached. Warning and inducement are de-activated;

(c)

repair cases 2 and 3 (‘inadequate’ refilling): The warning system is activated. The level of warning depends on the amount of available reagent;

(d)

repair case 4 (‘very inadequate’ refilling): The low-level inducement is activated immediately.

Figure 2

Reagent availability

5.3. Figure 3 illustrates three cases of wrong urea quality: U.K.

(a)

use case 1: the driver continues operating the vehicle in spite of the warning until vehicle operation is disabled;

(b)

repair case 1 (‘bad’ or ‘dishonest’ repair): after disablement of the vehicle, the driver changes the quality of the reagent, but, soon after, changes it again for a poor quality one. The inducement system is immediately reactivated and vehicle operation is disabled after 2 engine operating hours;

(c)

repair case 2 (‘good’ repair): after disablement of the vehicle, the driver rectifies the quality of the reagent. However, some time afterwards, he refills again with a poor quality reagent. The warning, inducement, and counting processes restart from zero.

Figure 3

Filling with poor reagent quality

5.4. Figure 4 illustrates three cases of failure of the urea dosing system. This figure also illustrates the process that applies in the case of the monitoring failures described in Section 9. U.K.

(a)

Use case 1: the driver continues operating the vehicle in spite of the warning until vehicle operation is disabled.

(b)

Repair case 1 (‘good’ repair): after disablement of the vehicle, the driver repairs the dosing system. However, some time afterwards, the dosing system fails again. The warning, inducement, and counting processes restart from zero.

(c)

Repair case 2 (‘bad’ repair): during the low-level inducement time (torque reduction), the driver repairs the dosing system. Soon after, however, the dosing system fails again. The low-level inducement system is immediately reactivated and the counter restarts from the value it had at the time of repair.

Figure 4

Failure of the reagent dosing system

Appendix 3

Low-level inducement torque reduction scheme U.K.

This diagram illustrates the provisions of Section 5.3 on torque reduction.

Appendix 4

Demonstration of correct installation on a vehicle in the case of engines EC type-approved as a separate technical unit U.K.

This Appendix applies when the vehicle manufacturer requests EC type-approval of a vehicle with an approved engine with regard to emissions and access to vehicle repair and maintenance information in accordance with this Regulation and Regulation (EC) No 595/2009.

In this case, and in addition to the installation requirements of Annex I, a demonstration of the correct installation is required. This demonstration shall be performed by the presentation to the approval authority of a technical case using evidence such as engineering drawings, functional analyses, and the results of previous tests.

Where appropriate, and if the manufacturer chooses, the evidence presented may include installations of systems or components on real or simulated vehicles, provided that the manufacturer can present evidence that the presented installation properly represents the standard that will be achieved in production.

The demonstration shall address the conformity of the following elements to the requirements of this Annex:

(a)

the installation on board the vehicle as regards its compatibility with the engine system (hardware, software and communication);

(b)

the warning and inducement systems (for example, pictograms, activation schemes, etc.);

(c)

the reagent tank and the elements (for example, sensors) mounted on the vehicle for the purpose of complying with this Annex.

Correct activation of the warning and inducement systems, and of the information storage and on-board and off-board communication systems, may be checked. No check of these systems shall require the dismounting of the engine system or components, nor shall it generate unnecessary testing burden by requiring processes such as changing of the urea quality or running of the vehicle or engine for long periods of time. In order to minimise the burden upon the vehicle manufacturer, electric disconnections and simulation of counters with high operating hours shall be selected as checks on these systems if possible.

[F2 ANNEX XVII U.K. ACCESS TO VEHICLE OBD AND VEHICLE REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE INFORMATION

1. INTRODUCTION U.K.

1.1. This Annex lays down technical requirements for the accessibility of vehicle OBD and vehicle repair and maintenance information. U.K.

2. REQUIREMENTS U.K.

2.1. Vehicle OBD and vehicle repair and maintenance information available through websites shall follow the common standard referred to in Article 6(1) of Regulation (EC) No 595/2009. Until this standard is adopted, manufacturers shall provide vehicle OBD and vehicle repair and maintenance information in a standardised manner which is non-discriminatory compared to the provisions given or access granted to authorised dealers and repairers. U.K.

Those requiring the right to duplicate or republish the information shall negotiate directly with the manufacturer concerned. Information for training material shall also be available, but may be presented through other media than websites.

Information on all parts of the vehicle, with which the vehicle, as identified by the vehicle identification number (VIN) and any additional criteria such as wheelbase, engine output, trim level or options, is equipped by the vehicle manufacturer and which can be replaced by spare parts offered by the vehicle manufacturer to its authorised repairers or dealers or third parties by means of reference to original equipment (OE) parts number, shall be made available in a database which is easily accessible to independent operators.

This database shall comprise the VIN, OE parts numbers, OE naming of the parts, validity attributes (valid-from and valid-to dates), fitting attributes and, where applicable, structuring characteristics.

The information on the database shall be regularly updated. The updates shall include in particular all modifications to individual vehicles after their production if this information is available to authorised dealers.

2.2. Access to vehicle security features used by authorised dealers and repair shops shall be made available to independent operators under protection of security technology in accordance with the following requirements: U.K.

(a)

data shall be exchanged ensuring confidentiality, integrity and protection against replay;

(b)

the standard https//ssl-tls (RFC4346) shall be used;

(c)

security certificates in accordance with ISO 20828 shall be used for mutual authentication of independent operators and manufacturers;

(d)

the independent operator’s private key shall be protected by secure hardware.

The Forum on Access to Vehicle Information referred to in Article 2h shall specify the parameters for fulfilling these requirements in accordance with the state of the art. The independent operator shall be approved and authorised for this purpose on the basis of documents demonstrating that he pursues a legitimate business activity and has not been convicted of any criminal activity.

2.3. Reprogramming of control units shall be conducted in accordance with either ISO 22900-2 or SAE J2534 or TMC RP1210B using non-proprietary hardware. Ethernet, serial cable or local area network (LAN) interface and alternative media like compact disc (CD), digital versatile disc (DVD) or solid state memory device for infotainment systems (e.g. navigation systems, telephone) may also be used, but on the condition that no proprietary communication software (e.g. drivers or plug-ins) and hardware is required. For the validation of the compatibility of the manufacturer-specific application and the vehicle communication interfaces (VCI) complying to ISO 22900-2 or SAE J2534 or TMC RP1210B, the manufacturer shall offer either a validation of independently developed VCIs or the information, and loan of any special hardware, required for a VCI manufacturer to conduct such validation himself. The conditions of Article 2f(1) shall apply to fees for such validation or information and hardware. U.K.

2.4. The requirements of section 2.3 shall not apply in the case of reprogramming of speed limitation devices and recording equipment. U.K.

2.5. All emission-related DTCs shall be consistent with Annex X. U.K.

2.6. For access to any vehicle OBD and vehicle repair and maintenance information other than that relating to secure areas of the vehicle, registration requirements for use of the manufacturer’s website by an independent operator shall require only such information as is necessary to confirm how payment for the information is to be made. For information concerning access to secure areas of the vehicle, the independent operator shall present a certificate in accordance with ISO 20828 to identify himself and the organisation to which he belongs and the manufacturer shall respond with his own certificate in accordance with ISO 20828 to confirm to the independent operator that he is accessing a legitimate site of the intended manufacturer. Both parties shall keep a log of any such transactions indicating the vehicles and changes made to them under this provision. U.K.

2.7. Manufacturers shall indicate in their repair information websites the type-approval number by model. U.K.

2.8. If requested by the manufacturer, for vehicles of category M ₁ , M ₂ , N ₁ and N ₂ with a maximum permissible mass not exceeding 7,5 tonnes and M ₃ Class I, Class II and Class A and Class B, as defined in Annex I to Directive 2001/85/EC, with a permissible mass not exceeding 7,5 tonnes, compliance with the requirements of Appendix 5 to Annex I and Annex XIV to Regulation (EC) No 692/2008 shall be considered equivalent to the compliance with this Annex. U.K.
