These provisions shall not apply to ornaments on radiator grilles, to which only the general requirements of item 5 shall apply.[F1To apply the 10 daN force a flat-ended ram of not more than 50 mm diameter shall be used. Where this is not possible, an equivalent method shall be used. After the ornaments are retracted, detached or bent over, the remaining projections shall not project more than 10 mm.
