The dynamic conditions encompass the effect of road grade, head wind and driving dynamics (accelerations, decelerations) and auxiliary systems upon energy consumption and emissions of the test vehicle. The verification of the normality of dynamic conditions shall be done after the test is completed, using the recorded PEMS data. This verification shall be conducted in two steps:
5.4.1. The overall excess or insufficiency of driving dynamics during the trip shall be checked using the methods described in Appendix 7a to this Annex. U.K.
5.4.2. If the trip results as valid following the verifications according to point 5.4.1, the methods for verifying the normality of the dynamic conditions and laid down in Appendices 5 and 6 to this Annex must be applied.
