14、dies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental an
15、d non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bo
16、dies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. International Standard ISO 4040 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 22, Road vehicles, Subcommittee SC 13, Ergonomics applicable to road vehicles. This third editi

18、 Bank University, Sat Dec 09 02:11:13 GMT+00:00 2006, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSI BS AU 199a:1997 BSI 10-19991 Introduction There is a recognized potential for errors in the selection of controls essential to the safe operation of a vehicle if these controls are not similarly located in all vehicles.
19、 Therefore the standardization of these control locations must be considered a logical and beneficial design objective since drivers have an ever-increasing opportunity to change from one vehicle to another. 1 Scope This International Standard lays down the location of the controls in road vehicles,
20、 by subdividing the space within reach of drivers into specific zones to which certain controls essential to the safe operation of vehicles are assigned. It also specifies certain combinations of functions for multifunction controls and the degree to which certain indicators and tell-tales shall be
21、visible. A specification for a control, indicator or tell-tale does not imply that the item must be fitted. This International Standard applies to hand-operated controls, to indicators, and to tell-tales for left and right-hand drive passenger cars as defined in ISO 3833. 2 Normative references The
22、following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All standards are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this International Standard are
23、 encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the standards indicated below.

43、trols shall be located in zone one: headlights beam switching; headlights optical warning; turn signal direction indicator. 4.3 The operational area of the following controls shall be located to the left of the reference plane: master lighting control (left-hand drive only); hand-operated parking br
44、ake (right-hand drive only). 4.4 A portion of the operational area of a control for the audible warning (horn) shall be located either in zone one or in zone two. Additional audible warning controls may be located elsewhere, or may have operational areas that extend beyond these zones. 4.5 The opera
45、tional area of the following controls shall be located to the right of the reference plane: master lighting control (if panel-mounted and right-hand drive); hand-operated parking brake (left-hand drive only). 4.6 When there is one stalk control, other than the gear selector, in zone 3, it shall oper
46、ate the windscreen washer and wiper. If there are two or more stalks in zone 3, other than the gear selector, the windscreen washer and wiper shall be controlled by that stalk with an operational area that is closest to the steering-wheel rim.

However, some countries have a
48、long-standing practice in right-hand drive vehicles of mirror-imaging (about the reference plane) the controls given in subclauses 4.2 and 4.6. In these countries only, subclauses 4.2 and 4.6 may be applied to right-hand drive vehicles by changing zone one to zone three in subclause 4.2, and zone th
49、ree to zone one in subclause 4.6.2) 4.8 The ignition switch control shall be located to the right of the reference plane. 4.9 All or part of the hazard warning control shall be located inboard of the reference plane. 5 Requirements for combination of functions into multifunction controls 5.1 The following pairs of functions shall be operated by the same control: windscreen wiping on/off and windscreen washing on/off (if power-operated); optical warning and headlights beam switching. 5.
