28、 following items, as appropriate, in the state given: a) Installation of Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) system: 1) mass of the recommended cylinder(s) or tank(s) when filled in accordance with Directive 92/21/EEC; 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(s) in accordance with Directive 92/21/EEC; 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 us
30、e of any other items of standard equipment full. c) Electrical supply 1) allowance of 4 kg for the low voltage (LV) connection cable; 2) mass of the auxiliary battery(s), if provided or when provision has been included. 5 Calculation of user payload 5.1 General The user payload is the result of the

32、onventional load The mass of the conventional load is the mass allowance that a manufacturer shall have to make to allow for carrying passengers (excluding the driver). This mass is calculated by multiplying by 75 kg the number of passenger seating positions designated by the manufacturer for use wh
33、en the vehicle is in motion. 5.3 Personal effects 5.3.1 General Personal effects are typically items common to all occupants such as food, cutlery, pots, pans, first aid box, maps, portable chemical toilet, levelling blocks, TV and radio, fire blanket or fire extinguisher and items personal to each
34、occupant such as clothing, footwear, bedding, books, cameras, toys and toiletries. Bicycles, boats, sail boards, sports equipment, etc. are also included whether carried on racks or otherwise. 5.3.2 Calculation of allowance The mass allowance M for personal effects, in kilograms, for a motor caravan
35、 shall be calculated from the following formula: M = 10n + 10l (1) where l is the overall length of the motor caravan in metres or, in the case of a de-mountable unit, the overall length of the habitation capsule; n is the maximum number of passengers, including the driver, as stated by the manufact
36、urer. 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 5.3.2, whichever is the lower. 5.4 Optional equipment The manufacturer shall specify the mass of each item of optional equipm
37、ent offered including the mass of any fluids required for its safe and proper functioning. NOTE Examples for optional equipment offered are air conditioning, bicycle rack. 6 Users handbook 6.1 Information on masses The manufacturer shall state in the users handbook of the motor caravan, the followin
38、g information including the definitions: a) maximum technically permissible laden mass and registration mass, in kilograms; b) mass of the vehicle in running order, in kilograms; c) mass of the user payload, in kilograms; d) mass of the essential habitation equipment, in kilograms. e) mass of the co

41、the users handbook: a) PLEASE TAKE CARE TO ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE ALLOWED FOR THE MASSES OF ALL ITEMS YOU INTEND TO CARRY IN THE MOTOR CARAVAN. e.g. passengers, optional equipment, essential habitation equipment and personal effects such as clothing, food, pets, bicycles, sailboards, sports equipment
42、etc. b) WARNING UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THE REGISTRATION MASS OF THIS MOTOR CARAVAN BE EXCEEDED. c) THE MASS IN RUNNING ORDER CONTAINS A PROVISION FOR THE MASSES OF LIQUIDS, GAS ETC.
