5. A product shall have a color or colors, grain and gloss adjusted on the surface to those on a sample separately specified. For the tolerances relating to Color
Difference DE (Da, Db and DL), a depth of grain and a value of gloss, see the Specification Tender.
1 6. Unless otherwise specified, the appearance quality shall be subject to NES C5055 (Appearance Quality Standards on Automotive Parts - Interior Parts).
7. The characters and symbols to be stamped shall conform to a manuscript of characters.
8. For a plasticizer to be applied when making a slash molding of the pad on the surface skin, apply a trimellitic plasticizer as the main component.
2 9. If the material to be used is made of filter-sorted polypropylene (PPC), it shall meet the requirements specified in NES M8026.
10. Materials applied shall be marked with identifiers in accordance with NES D0031 "Marking of Polymeric Parts".
11. Nissan genuine symbols shall be marked in accordance with NES D0021 "Marks and Marking Methods for Parts".

IV. Verification Items

Prior to parts production, the following items must be submitted to the design department in charge to seek verification.
1. Proposed drawings
The manufacture must submit proposed drawings which indicate the shape, materials, parts configuration, identification mark shape and position, construction
method, and other relevant information. The Remarks column of the proposed drawings must be basically formatted in compliance with Attached Sheet A.
2. Wooden model review session
Before proceeding to the production of a tooling, manufacturers shall submit a wooden model, which allows us to know the appearance of a related part, together
with the related measurement data.
3. Pattern review session
Before etching grain on a production tooling, manufacturers shall submit a molding in all colors and measurement data.
4. Final moldings
Manufacturers shall submit a final molding in all colors and measurement data.
5. Colors, gloss and grain
Submit the measurement data relating to Color Difference DE (Da, Db and DL), a depth of grain and a value of gloss.
6. Characters and symbols

applied and arranged, with its center taken at the crossing of those lines which have been drawn
longitudinally and laterally at intervals of 180 mm as shown to the right side of Fig. 1.
4. Requirements to be met by the thermostatic tank with infrared ray lamps:
(1) Temperature shall distribute within a range of ±3°C within the test temperature setting reference
plane (Note 1).
(2) The test setup should preferably allow infrared rays to be irradiated uniformly onto a test piece. To

and temperature by regulating both voltage and irradiation distance or the like, with lamp intervals
minimized as far as practicable.
Note 1: As shown in Fig. 2, take half the height at the highest and lowest positions of the test
piece inside the tested plane for the reference height. And the plane which has a height
identical with the reference one shall be called the "test condition setting reference plane
(reference plane)".

negative leg shall be of an alloy with nickel applied as the main component. And they shall have
thermal tolerances of ±25°C over a temperature range of 0°C thru under 1,200°C, or 0.75% on a

The test shall be conducted in every color available on standard bases. A test piece to be employed shall be
a finished product (Note 2), in principle. Unless otherwise specified, the test shall be conducted after leaving
the test piece under the conditions of standard temperature and humidity, 20 ±2°C and 65 ±2%, respectively
(Note 4). The test shall be conducted while any parts (Note 3) in contact with the instrument panel pad are

2.4 Test conditions

Conduct the test under the conditions specified on Table 1, in principle. The test duration, however, may be
subject to a change according to the performance of a thermostatic tank. It is necessary, therefore, to
determine the test conditions for the thermostatic tank to be employed, in accordance with 3 "Test Data" after
consulting with Test Section in charge (Note 5).

2.5 Operations
(1) In a thermostatic tank adjusted (Note 12) to the test conditions referred to in 2-4, install a test piece
in its normal service position (Note 10) and heat it for a specified duration of time.
(2) Throughout the process of heating, check the test piece for a possible detrimental deformation,
discoloration, surface stickiness, rupture due to an ordinary operation (Note 11), failure and any
other probable abnormalities in intervals of 24 h or less. If a discoloration lower than Class 4 in the
discoloration/fading gray scale should take place, determine the surface temperature at the related
location (Note 12) when it took place or after heating for a specified duration. Unless the problem
can be corrected on account of the equipment, take the test piece out of the tank and check it for a
possible abnormality within 3 min.
(3) Following the operations referred to in (2) above, leave the test piece at the room temperature for
30 min.
(4) After leaving the test piece as referred to in (3) above, check it for possible abnormality and
determine its residual deformation.
Note 10: This signifies the condition where the test piece is mounted on a test rack or fittings so as to attain
the load conditions as installed on a motor vehicle.
With a weight or weights mounted and/or with a load or loads applied, moreover, the related
weight, dimensions and load conditions shall be agreed upon by and between the parties
concerned.
Note 11: The term, ordinary operation, signifies:
(a) Light hitting by hand, holding, pulling and picking by nail
(b) Lightly kicking by foot, getting on and/or pushing
(c) Leaning your body or sitting
Note 12: A part shall have its surface temperature and its back atmosphere temperature determined as
follows:
(A) Follow the procedure shown in Fig. 3 "Determining a surface temperature". To drill a hole
on the surface film, use a heated needle or equivalent (needle, soldering iron or the like).
Any thermocouple other than those for setting test conditions shall not be attached to the test
piece.

Definition of Standard Light C
Standard light C:
Standard light C is the light which has a spectral distribution as defined in Exhibit 1. It is used to indicate the colors of an
object illuminated with the daytime light. Standard light C, however, shall not be used to indicate the colors of an object,
which will emit fluorescence as excited under ultraviolet radiation.
Remarks: Standard light C is approximated to the daytime light with a quantity of approx. 6,774 K in correlative color temperature.
As compared with this daytime light, however, standard light C shows a small value of correlation in the spectral
distribution at an ultraviolet zone. It tends to be gradually replaced with standard light D43, accordingly.

Fire Prevention Performance Test of Console Ashtray
(1) Mount the ashtray on a specified console in vehicle in assembly conditions. With the tray (or lid) open, burn
paper, match sticks, cigarette butts, etc. in the tray and check the influence on other console portions. The result
should be reported.
(2) Assemble all the accessories to be fit in a specified console in vehicle assembly conditions. Carry out the test
under the conditions described below. When the live matter to make a fire is put out, the console shall not catch
a fire or the fire spread to the console shall be extinguished at the same time.
a. Put cigarette butts in the tray by 80% to 100%. 17
b. Horizontally place fire source widthwise in tray. The fire source shall be put in the worst position in that
vehicle condition.
Live matter to make a fire:
3
Fire absorbent cotton of 10 ´ 10 ´ 30 mm immersed in ethyl alcohol 0.5 cm {cc}.
c. The tray shall be fully opened.
