3.GRANTING OF EU TYPE-APPROVAL OF A VEHICLE TYPE
3.1.
If the relevant requirements are satisfied, EU type-approval pursuant to Article 9(3) and, if applicable, Article 10(4) of Directive 2007/46/EC shall be granted.
3.2.
A model for the EU type-approval certificate is contained in Appendix 2.
3.3.
An approval number in accordance with Annex VII to Directive 2007/46/EC shall be assigned to each vehicle type approved. The same Member State shall not assign the same number to another vehicle type.
3.3.1.
If the vehicle type complies with the limit values of Phase 1 in Annex III, Section 3 of the type-approval number shall be followed by the character ‘A’. If the vehicle type complies with the limit values of Phase 2 in Annex III, Section 3 of the type-approval number shall be followed by the character ‘B’. If the vehicle type complies with the limit values of Phase 3 in Annex III, Section 3 of the type-approval number shall be followed by the character ‘C’.
4.AMENDMENTS TO EU TYPE-APPROVALS
In the case of amendments to the type approved pursuant to this Regulation, Articles 13, 14, 15, 16 and Article 17(4) of Directive 2007/46/EC shall apply.
5.CONFORMITY OF PRODUCTION ARRANGEMENTS
5.1.
Measures to ensure the conformity of production arrangements shall be taken in accordance with the requirements laid down in Article 12 of Directive 2007/46/EC.
5.2.
Special provisions:
5.2.1.
The tests laid down in Annex VI to this Regulation shall correspond to those referred to in point 2.3.5 of Annex X to Directive 2007/46/EC.
5.2.2.
The frequency of inspections referred to in point 3 of Annex X to Directive 2007/46/EC shall normally be once every two years.
The following information, if applicable, shall be supplied in triplicate and include a list of contents. Any drawings shall be supplied in appropriate scale and in sufficient detail on size A4 or on a folder of A4 format. Photographs, if any, shall show sufficient detail.
If the systems, components or separate technical units have electronic controls, information concerning their performance shall be supplied.
