Special provision 388

UN No. 3166 entries apply to vehicles powered by flammable liquid or gas internal combustion engines or fuel cells. Vehicles powered by a fuel cell engine shall be assigned to the entries UN 3166 VEHICLE, FUEL CELL, FLAMMABLE GAS POWERED or UN 3166 VEHICLE, FUEL CELL, FLAMMABLE LIQUID POWERED, as appropriate. These entries include hybrid electric vehicles powered by both a fuel cell and an internal combustion engine with wet batteries, sodium batteries, lithium metal batteries or lithium ion batteries, carried with the battery(ies) installed. Other vehicles which contain an internal combustion engine shall be assigned to the entries UN 3166 VEHICLE, FLAMMABLE GAS POWERED or UN 3166 VEHICLE, FLAMMABLE LIQUID POWERED, as appropriate. These entries include hybrid electric vehicles powered by both an internal combustion engine and wet batteries, sodium batteries, lithium metal batteries or lithium ion batteries, carried with the battery(ies) installed. If a vehicle is powered by a flammable liquid and a flammable gas internal combustion engine, it shall be assigned to UN No. 3166 VEHICLE, FLAMMABLE GAS POWERED. Entry UN 3171 only applies to vehicles and equipment powered by wet batteries, metallic sodium batteries or sodium alloy batteries, carried with these batteries installed. UN No. 3556 VEHICLE, LITHIUM ION BATTERY POWERED, UN 3557 VEHICLE, LITHIUM METAL BATTERY POWERED and UN No. 3558 VEHICLE, SODIUM ION BATTERY POWERED, as applicable, apply to vehicles powered by lithium ion, lithium metal or sodium ion batteries carried with the batteries installed. For the purpose of this special provision, vehicles are selfpropelled apparatus designed to carry one or more persons or goods. Examples of such vehicles are cars, motorcycles, scooters, threeand fourwheeled vehicles or motorcycles, trucks, locomotives, bicycles (pedal cycles with a motor) and other vehicles of this type (e.g. selfbalancing vehicles or vehicles not equipped with at least one seating position), wheelchairs, lawn tractors, selfpropelled farming and construction equipment, boats and aircraft. When vehicles are carried in a packaging, some parts of the vehicle, other than the battery, may be detached from its frame to fit into the packaging. Examples of equipment are lawnmowers, cleaning machines or model boats and model aircraft. Equipment powered by lithium metal batteries or lithium ion batteries shall be assigned to the entries UN 3091 LITHIUM METAL BATTERIES CONTAINED IN EQUIPMENT or UN 3091 LITHIUM METAL BATTERIES PACKED WITH EQUIPMENT or UN 3481 LITHIUM ION BATTERIES CONTAINED IN EQUIPMENT or UN 3481 LITHIUM ION BATTERIES PACKED WITH EQUIPMENT, as appropriate. Lithium ion batteries or lithium metal batteries installed in a cargo transport unit and designed only to provide power external to the cargo transport unit shall be assigned to the entry UN 3536 LITHIUM BATTERIES INSTALLED IN CARGO TRANSPORT UNIT lithium ion batteries or lithium metal batteries. Dangerous goods, such as batteries, airbags, fire extinguishers, compressed gas accumulators, safety devices and other integral components of the vehicle that are necessary for the operation of the vehicle or for the safety of its operator or passengers, shall be securely installed in the vehicle and are not otherwise subject to ADR. However, lithium batteries shall meet the provisions of 2.2.9.1.7.1, except that (a), (e) (vii), (f) (iii) if applicable, (f) (iv) if applicable and (g) do not apply when batteries of a production run of not more than 100 cells or batteries, or preproduction prototypes of cells or batteries when these prototypes are carried for testing, are installed in vehicles. Furthermore, sodium ion batteries shall meet the provisions of 2.2.9.1.7.2, except that (a), (e) and (f) do not apply when batteries of a production run of not more than 100 cells or batteries, or preproduction prototypes of cells or batteries when these prototypes are carried for testing, are installed in vehicles. Where a lithium battery installed in a vehicle is damaged or defective, the vehicle shall be carried in accordance with the conditions defined in special provision 667 (c).
