When the UK left the EU, legislation.gov.uk published EU legislation that had been published by the EU up to IP completion day (31 December 2020 11.00 p.m.). On legislation.gov.uk, these items of legislation are kept up-to-date with any amendments made by the UK since then.
Legislation.gov.uk publishes the UK version. EUR-Lex publishes the EU version. The EU Exit Web Archive holds a snapshot of EUR-Lex’s version from IP completion day (31 December 2020 11.00 p.m.).
This is the original version as it was originally adopted in the EU.
This legislation may since have been updated - see the latest available (revised) version
A collision warning when the AEBS has detected the possibility of a collision with a preceding vehicle of category M, N or O in the same lane which is travelling at a slower speed, has slowed to a halt or is stationary having not being identified as moving. The warning shall be as specified in point 1.5.1.
A failure warning when there is a failure in the AEBS that prevents the requirements of this Annex being met. The warning shall be as specified in point 1.5.4.
There shall not be an appreciable time interval between each self-check by the AEBS, and subsequently there shall not be an appreciable delay in illuminating the warning signal, in the case of an electrically detectable failure.
A deactivation warning, if the vehicle is equipped with a means to manually deactivate the AEBS, shall be given when the system is deactivated. This shall be as specified in point 1.4.2.
The AEBS function shall be automatically reinstated at the initiation of each new ignition cycle.
A constant optical warning signal shall inform the driver that the AEBS function has been deactivated. The yellow warning signal specified in point 1.5.4 may be used for this purpose.
The timing of the warning signals shall be such that they provide the possibility for the driver to react to the risk of collision and take control of the situation, and shall also avoid nuisance for the driver by too early or too frequent warnings. This shall be tested in accordance with points 2.4.2 and 2.5.2.
In the case of the failure warning signal being in a common space, the common space must be observed to be functional prior to the failure warning signal status check.
Alternatively, this protection requirement is fulfilled when a secondary means of checking the correct operational status of the AEBS is available.
The Union acceded to that UNECE Regulation by Council Decision 97/836/EC (OJ L 346, 17.12.1997, p. 78).
