Traduction de «Tyre changing » (Anglais → Français) :

In particular, the Commission should be empowered to establish the specific procedures, tests and requirements for the type-approval of motor vehicles, components and separate technical units; to define more precisely the characteristics a tyre must fulfil to be defined as ‘special use tyre’, ‘off-road professional tyre’, ‘reinforced tyre’, ‘extra load tyre’, ‘snow tyre’, ‘T-type temporary-use spare tyre’ or ‘traction tyre’; to set out specific safety requirements for vehicles intended for the transport of dangerous goods by road within or between Member States; to exempt certain vehicles or classes of vehicles of categories M, M, N a ...[+++]nd N from the obligation to install advanced emergency braking systems and/or lane departure warning systems; to amend the limit values on rolling resistance and rolling noise for tyres as a result of changes in test procedures without lowering the level of protection of the environment; to establish rules on the procedure for the determination of noise levels of tyres; to shorten the sell-off period for tyres not complying with the requirements set out in this Regulation and its implementing measures; and to amend Annex IV to include the Regulations of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE Regulations) which are mandatory under Council Decision 97/836/EC of 27 November 1997 with a view to accession by the European Community to the Agreement of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe concerning the adoption of uniform technical prescriptions for wheeled vehicles, equipment and parts which can be fitted to and/or be used on wheeled vehicles and the conditions for reciprocal recognition of approvals granted on the basis of these prescriptions .

In particular, the Commission should be empowered to establish the specific procedures, tests and requirements for the type-approval of motor vehicles, components and separate technical units; to define more precisely the characteristics a tyre must fulfil to be defined as ‘special use tyre’, ‘off-road professional tyre’, ‘reinforced tyre’, ‘extra load tyre’, ‘snow tyre’, ‘T-type temporary-use spare tyre’ or ‘traction tyre’; to set out specific safety requirements for vehicles intended for the transport of dangerous goods by road within or between Member States; to exempt certain vehicles or classes of vehicles of categories M2, M3, N ...[+++]2 and N3 from the obligation to install advanced emergency braking systems and/or lane departure warning systems; to amend the limit values on rolling resistance and rolling noise for tyres as a result of changes in test procedures without lowering the level of protection of the environment; to establish rules on the procedure for the determination of noise levels of tyres; to shorten the sell-off period for tyres not complying with the requirements set out in this Regulation and its implementing measures; and to amend Annex IV to include the Regulations of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE Regulations) which are mandatory under Council Decision 97/836/EC of 27 November 1997 with a view to accession by the European Community to the Agreement of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe concerning the adoption of uniform technical prescriptions for wheeled vehicles, equipment and parts which can be fitted to and/or be used on wheeled vehicles and the conditions for reciprocal recognition of approvals granted on the basis of these prescriptions (5).

These potentials can be achieved, in particular, by ensuring fuel efficiency of cars, developing markets for cleaner vehicles, ensuring the maintenance of proper tyre pressure, and by improving the efficiency of urban, rail, maritime and aviation transport systems, as well as changing transportation behaviour.

I understood from the Commissioner’s answer that an owner changing the tyres on his car for the second time is entitled to have another type of tyre, if permitted by the national authorities.

If the measured test surface temperature does not change by more than 5 °C within all measurements necessary for the determination of the sound level of one set of tyres, the temperature correction may be made only on the final reported tyre-road sound level as indicated above, utilizing the arithmetic mean value of the measured temperatures.

The effect of changes in minor details of tyre tread and construction on the tyre/road noise emission will be determined during checks on the conformity of production.
