Why: The aim is uniform application of the requirements, also for compliance checks and enforcement.

Q1What changed1 change

Statement for the installation of RF-transmitters in the information document (para. 3.1.8.)

For vehicles of categories L6, L7, M, N, O, T, R and S, the vehicle manufacturer must give a statement for the installation of RF-transmitters. The statement gives frequency bands, power levels, antenna positions and installation provisions. It is necessary even if the vehicle is not equipped with an RF transmitter at time of type approval. Paragraph 3.1.8. now also requires that this statement is noted in the information document, for example under item 63 of Annex 2A. Before this supplement, paragraph 3.1.8. did not require this. The sentences on mobile radio services and on public availability after type approval do not change.

For vehicles of categories L6, L7, M, N, O, T, R and S, the vehicle manufacturer shall provide a statement of frequency bands, power levels, antenna positions and installation provisions for the installation of radio frequency transmitters (RF-transmitters), even if the vehicle is not equipped with an RF transmitter at time of type approval, and this statement shall be noted in the information document (e.g. under item 63, Annex 2A). This should cover all mobile radio services normally used in vehicles. This information shall be made publicly available following the type approval.
