If the tyre conforms to type approvals under one or more other Regulations annexed to the Agreement in the country which has granted approval under this Regulation, the symbol prescribed in paragraph 5.4.1. above need not be repeated. In such a case the additional numbers and symbols of all the Regulations under which approval has been granted in the country which has granted approval under this Regulation shall be placed adjacent to the symbol prescribed in paragraph 5.4.1. above. 5.6.

The test procedure shall be carried out as described in Annex 8 to Regulation No. 117, taking into account the provisions of paragraph 3. below, using studded tyres with studs whose protrusion is measured before each braking test cycle pursuant to the procedure described in paragraph 2. below. The studded tyres should be "broken-in" prior to testing (at least 100 km on roads or with an equivalent method) to ensure correct fit of the studs and stable performance. 2. Stud protrusion measurement procedure The stud protrusion measurement shall be done under the inflation pressure conditions required by the ice grip test. Figure 1 illustrates the stud protrusion measurement device. It shall be equipped with a support plate (2) of 20 mm diameter and a 12-mm diameter hole for the measurement head (1). The measurement head shall be pressed perpendicular to the tread surface with a force of 15 N to 20 N to trigger the measurement. The stud protrusion shall be measured from every test tyre, from 20 consecutive studs over the whole width of the tread and in circumferential direction, and at the same stud positions each time. Figure 1 Stud protrusion measurement device sketch 3. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 2.1.1.2. of Annex 8 to Regulation No. 117, the braking lines must not overlap. The reference tyre shall be tested on its own braking line and each candidate studded tyre next to it on its own individual braking lines. The line for the reference tyre shall be kept clean from ice and snow dust. The candidate studded tyres shall be driven on new clean braking lines.
