carried out. As far as possible, the microphone shall be placed at a distance greater than 0.5 metre from the nearest obstacle and its
reference axis for free field conditions shall be orientated towards the exhaust gas orifice at a place which is the least masked by the
obstacles.

1. General conditions:
1. The vehicle shall approach the line AA with the path of its centre line following as closely as possible the line CC as specified in
paragraphs 2 (1) to 2 (3) as appropriate.
2. When the front of the vehicles reaches the line AA, the throttle shall be fully opened as rapidly as practicable (without operating
the kick-down, if any) and held fully open until the rear of the vehicle reaches line BB; the throttle shall then be closed as rapidly as
possible.

3. Automatic transmission vehicle.
(a) Vehicles without a manual selector shall be tested at various uniform approach-speeds of 30, 40 and 50 km/h or at 3/4 of the
on-road maximum speed if this value is lower. The condition with the highest sound pressure level shall be reported.
(b) If a manual selector with N forward positions fitted to the vehicle, the test shall be performed with the selector in the position
N; external downshifts (for example by kick-down) shall be excluded. The approach speed shall be that specified in paragraph
2 (2). If an automatic downshift occurs after the line AA, the test shall be rejected and repeated using the position N-1, N-2,
etc., as necessary, until the selector is placed in the highest position that allows the test to be performed without automatic
downshift, external downshifts (kickdown) being always excluded.
(c) If the vehicle is fitted with an auxiliary manual transmission or a multi-gear axle, the position used for normal urban driving
shall be used. In all cases, the special selector's positions for slow movements, parking, or braking shall be excluded.
