22、tors such as the strength of materials, loading capacity of the tyres, etc., and which is stated by the vehicle manufacturer 3.2 registration mass mass of the vehicle declared by the manufacturer at type approval for registration; this mass shall not exceed the mass according to 3.1, if the requirem
23、ents specified in clause 5 of this standard are met 3.3 mass of the caravan in running order mass of the unladen caravan with bodywork in running order (see clause 4), tools, spare wheel (if any); it also includes the essential habitation equipment (see 3.5) 3.4 user payload difference between the m
24、aximum technically permissible laden mass (see 3.1) or the registration mass (see 3.2), if this mass differs from the mass according to 3.1, and the mass of the caravan in running order (see 3.3) 3.5 essential habitation equipment items required for the safe and proper functioning of the equipment f

27、ss of any item shall not be included more than once. The manufacturer shall ensure that all manufacturing tolerances for weight fluctuations shall be allowed to be within the mass of the vehicle in running order. 4.2 Essential habitation equipment The essential habitation equipment shall include the
28、 following items, as appropriate, in the state given: a) Installation of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) system: 1) mass of the recommended cylinder(s) or tank(s) when filled to 100 % of their nominal capacity; 2) number of cylinders to be considered are those that can be connected to the regulator(s)
29、 installed by the manufacturer. b) Mass of the liquids in: 1) fresh water storage and heating system full; 2) central heating system full; 3) waste water tank empty; 4) toilet flushing tank full; 5) toilet waste holding tank empty; 6) essential fluids for the use of any other items of standard equip

34、r as given in ISO 612:1978, 6.1.2; n is the sum of all standard and optional berths. NOTE It is essential that despite permitted tolerances in the mass in running order the personal effects allowance is not eroded below either 100 kg or as calculated in 5.2, whichever is the lower. 5.3 Optional equi
35、pment The manufacturer shall specify the mass of each item of optional equipment offered including the mass of any fluids required for its safe and proper functioning.
