4.

For the purposes of paragraph 3, point (d), the measures taken to prevent tampering with and modification of the emission control computer shall include the facility for updating using a manufacturer-approved programme or calibration.

5.

For the tests specified in Figure I.2.3 of Annex I, the manufacturer shall submit to the technical service responsible for the emission type-approval tests a vehicle representative of the type to be approved.

In-service conformity shall be checked on properly maintained and used vehicles, in accordance with Appendix 1 of Annex 4 to UN Regulation No 83, between 15 000  km or 6 months whichever occurs later and 200 000  km or 10 years whichever occurs sooner. In service conformity for evaporative emissions shall be checked on properly maintained and used vehicles, in accordance with Appendix 1 of Annex 4 to UN Regulation No 8, between 30 000  km or 12 months whichever occurs later and 200 000  km or 10 years whichever occurs sooner.

The requirements for in-service conformity checks are applicable until 10 years after the last Certificate of Conformity or individual approval certificate is issued for vehicles of an in-service conformity family that is subject to testing according to paragraph 9.4 of UN Regulation No 83, as defined in paragraph 3 of Annex 4 to UN Regulation No 83.

4.

In-service conformity checks shall not be mandatory if the annual sales of the in-service conformity family are less than 5 000 vehicles in the Union for the previous calendar year. For such in-service conformity families, the manufacturer shall provide the approval authority with a report of any emissions related warranty and relevant repair as set out in paragraph 4 of Annex 4 to UN Regulation No 83. Such in-service conformity families may still be selected to be tested in accordance with Annex II to this Regulation.

6.

The granting type-approval authority shall take the decision on whether a family failed the provisions of in-service conformity, following a compliance assessment in accordance with paragraph 6 of Annex 4 to UN Regulation No 83 and approve the plan of remedial measures presented by the manufacturer in accordance with paragraph 7 of Annex 4 to UN Regulation No 83.

7.

If a type-approval authority, technical service, the Commission or a recognised third party has established that an in-service conformity family fails the in-service conformity check, it shall notify without delay the granting type-approval authority, in accordance with Article 54(2) of Regulation (EU) 2018/858.

Following that notification and subject to the application of Article 54(5) of Regulation (EU) 2018/858, the granting type-approval authority shall inform the manufacturer that an in-service conformity family failed the in-service conformity checks. The procedures laid out in paragraphs 6 and 7 of Annex 4 to UN Regulation No 83, as amended by Annex II to this Regulation, shall be followed by the manufacturer and the granting type-approval authority and the manufacturer shall establish a plan of remedial measures and submit it to the granting type approval authority.

If the granting type-approval authority establishes that no agreement can be reached with a type-approval authority that has established that an in-service conformity family fails the in-service conformity check, the procedure pursuant to Article 54(5) of Regulation (EU) 2018/858 shall be initiated.

ANNEX II

IN-SERVICE CONFORMITY METHODOLOGY

1. INTRODUCTION

This Annex sets out the in-service conformity (ISC) methodology for checking compliance against the emission limits for tailpipe (including low temperature) and evaporative emissions throughout the additional lifetime of the vehicle, as set out in Table 1 of Annex IV to Regulation (EU) 2024/1257.

2. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

The general requirements for conducting in-service conformity testing set out in Article 10 apply.

3. TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

The technical requirements for conducting in-service conformity testing shall be those set out in Annex 4 of UN Regulation No 83 ([^E0030]) with the exceptions described in the points below.

2 PROCESS DESCRIPTION:
