Common use of Non-locked transmissions Clause in Contracts

Non-locked transmissions. In case of non-locked transmission conditions, the test may include a gear change to a lower range and a higher acceleration under accelerated conditions. A gear change to a higher range could occur under cruise and low load acceleration conditions. Such upshifts shall be avoided. The authority present during the test shall modify operation conditions so that these upshifts are avoided between AA' and BB'. In the approach to line AA', the vehicle shall be driven in a way to allow the transmission to stabilize the gear.
