Introduction
The ISO 18541 series includes the requirements to be fulfilled by repair and maintenance information
(RMI) systems as applied by the European Commission — Enterprise and Industry Directorate-General,
[9]
Consumer goods — Automotive industry EC mandate M/421 , dated Brussels, 21 January 2008.
This mandate relates to the EC type-approval system for vehicles falling into the scopes of Directives
[12]
70/156/EEC (replaced by 2007/46/EC ), 2002/24/EC [replaced by (EU) 168/2013] and 2003/37/
EC [replaced by (EU) 167/2013] and, in particular, to requirements for access to vehicle repair and
maintenance information by independent operators.
The purpose of the EC Mandate M/421 is to develop a standard or set of standards which specify the
requirements to provide standardized access to automotive repair and maintenance information (RMI)
for independent operators.
The ISO 18541 series only covers access to automotive repair and maintenance information for
[18] [17]
light passenger and commercial vehicles [see (EC) No 715/2007 , (EC) No 692/2008 and
[14] [16] [15]
(EU) No 566/2011 ] and heavy-duty vehicles [see (EC) No 595/2009 , (EU) No 582/2011
[13] [12]
and (EU) No 64/2012 ] based on Directive 2007/46/EC and for two-or three-wheel vehicles and
quadricycles based on regulation (EU) 168/2013.
The information included in the ISO 18541 series derives from the legislative requirements on European
level in the field of RMI and related security requirements and can be referenced by legislation in other
countries.

Introduction
This set of standards includes the requirements to be fulfilled by Repair and Maintenance Information
(RMI) systems as applied by the European Commission — Enterprise and Industry Directorate-General,
[8]
Consumer goods — Automotive industry EC mandate M/421 dated Brussels, 21 January 2008.
This mandate relates to the EC type-approval system for vehicles falling into the scopes of Directives
[11] [9] [10]
70/156/EEC (replaced by 2007/46/EC ), 2002/24/EC and 2003/37/EC and, in particular, to
requirements for access to vehicle repair and maintenance information by independent operators.
This document only covers access to automotive repair and maintenance information for light
passenger, commercial vehicles (see NOTE 1) and heavy duty vehicles (see NOTE 2) based on Directive
[11]
70/156/EEC (replaced by 2007/46/EC ).
[8]
The purpose of the EC Mandate M/421 is to develop a standard or set of standards which specify the
requirements to provide standardized access to automotive repair and maintenance information (RMI)
for independent operators.
NOTE 1 Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 June 2007 on
type-approval of motor vehicles with respect to emissions from light passenger and commercial vehicles
(Euro 5 and Euro 6) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information and Commission Regulation
(EC) No 692/2008 of 18 July 2008 implementing and amending Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 of the European
Parliament and of the Council on type-approval of motor vehicles with respect to emissions from light passenger
and commercial vehicles (Euro 5 and Euro 6) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information and
amending Commission Regulation (EU) No 566/2011 of 8 June 2011 amending Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 of
the European Parliament and of the Council and Commission Regulation (EC) No 692/2008 as regards access to
vehicle repair and maintenance information.
NOTE 2 Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 June 2009 on type-
approval of motor vehicles with respect to emissions from heavy duty vehicles (Euro VI) and on access to vehicle
repair and maintenance information, Commission Regulation (EU) No 582/2011 of 25 May 2011 implementing
and amending Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council with respect to
emissions from heavy duty vehicles (Euro VI), and Commission Regulation (EU) No 64/2012 of 23 January 2012
amending Regulation (EU) No 582/2011 2011 implementing and amending Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 of the
European Parliament and of the Council with respect to emissions from heavy duty vehicles (Euro VI).
The information included in this part of ISO 18541 derives from the legislative requirements on
European level in the field of repair and maintenance information and related security requirements
and can be referenced by legislation in other countries.
The vehicle manufacturer (VM) RMI website is accessible for independent operators (IOs) complying
with the European CEN and ISO standards for accessing RMI. These standards have been defined in co-
operation between VMs and IOs within the automotive industry.
This means practically that the user will be guided to the information he is searching for by, for example,
entering the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) of the vehicle and the type of information required.
The navigation has been constructed in such a way that users will find the information in a simplified way.
After logging in (requires registration) the user will be presented with options for accessing the RMI.
The standardized access will be presented in the form of types of information which will guide the user
to the information; at certain stages the user is requested to enter further data in order for the RMI
system to correctly identify the information the user is searching for.
Users need to follow the guidance precisely in order to guarantee that the user will find the correct
information that they require.

DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/DIS 18541-3:2020(E)
Road vehicles — Standardized access to automotive repair
and maintenance information (RMI) —
Part 3:
Functional user interface requirements
1 Scope
This document includes functional user interface requirements related to automotive repair and
maintenance information (RMI) systems in order to standardize access to RMI for independent
operators.
This document specifies all functional user interface requirements related to a vehicle manufacturer's
RMI system. These requirements will reflect the deriving needs from the use cases as specified in
ISO 18541-1.

5 Conventions
This document is based on the conventions discussed in the OSI Service Conventions (ISO/IEC 10731).
6 Requirements overview and principles
6.1 Basic principles for requirements definition
Basic principles have been established as a guideline to define the requirements.
— The requirements stated in this document shall not specify any implementation details;
— Requirements shall be expressed in terms of performance rather than design or descriptive
characteristics. This approach leaves maximum freedom to technical development;
— The requirements shall allow for flexible navigational pathways for practical and state-of-the-art
access to RMI in the VM websites;
— The requirements shall allow for concepts to be able to implement navigational principles to
minimize the impact to the existing VM RMI systems.
6.2 Navigational pathway from standardized use cases to VM-specific
