Traffic regulations/test conditions
- Secure front wheels (place wheel chocks 100 mm in front of front wheels).
- Check tire pressure of rear wheels, set to specified pressure.
- Check luggage compartment content, remove any heat sensitive and heavy objects.
- Use blower to cool down vehicle (minimum output 15, 000 m 3 /h). Direct air flow at radiator and underside of vehicle (oil pan, exhaust, 3-way catalytic converter, tires). Maintain a distance of approx. 1 m between blower and vehicle.
- The driven period is to be limited solely to the time required to read off the instruments (approx. 5 seconds for the output dynamometer; approx. 20 seconds for the exhaust emission test).
- On vehicles fitted with a CAT the procedure must be interrupted immediately if combustion faults occur otherwise damage to the CAT cannot be ruled out
Unless an express performance complaint is available, the test can be conducted at max. 100 km/h or 120 km/h.
Comply with test specifications and the following sequence:
- Warm up
- Performance test
Continue for exhaust test only
- Wide open throttle exhaust test, upper part-throttle operation, lower part-throttle operation
- Idle speed
- Exhaust test when idling
The full-throttle tests (output, exhaust) are to be performed directly after the engine has been warmed up (when the temperature of the tires are still low), because these test case the temperature to rise the quickest.
Two repeated tests are permitted after adjustment work has been made. Before any further testing can be done, a 45 minute break must be taken to let all of the components cool down.
