Alcance y aplicabilidad

This standard specifies the symbols for controls, indicators, and tell-tales of motor vehicles, along with their locations and display colors. It applies to M and N category vehicles. This standard is mandatory for applicable vehicle manufacturers, but it does not apply to controls, indicators, and tell-tales specific to electric vehicles.

Requisitos técnicos

The standard categorizes symbols into mandatory and non-mandatory types. If a vehicle is equipped with the functions listed in the mandatory section, the corresponding symbols must be displayed and comply with the specified design and color requirements. Manufacturers must ensure all mandatory symbols are permanently visible and clearly distinguishable from the background. It defines the basic graphic composition for symbols, referencing a specific grid and geometric framework detailed in the normative annex. The standard also specifies the display colors for tell-tales, such as red for danger, yellow or amber for warnings, and green for safe or normal conditions. ISO 2575 is referenced for symbols not explicitly listed in the standard. For multi-function controls, each function must have its corresponding symbol. The standard also introduces requirements for common spaces where multiple information functions are displayed. Critical safety warnings like braking system faults and seatbelt alerts must not be displayed in the same common space simultaneously. Modifications to symbols are allowed but must not alter their basic constituent elements or affect their recognizability.

Métodos de ensayo

The standard does not outline specific laboratory testing procedures. Instead, it serves as a design and compliance verification guideline, requiring visual inspection and conformity assessment of the symbol graphics, colors, and placement against the specified geometric grids and functional requirements.
