Amend. to Rev.3

The recommendations in the Manual of Tests and Criteria supplement the "Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods" and the Model Regulations annexed thereto.

The third revised edition of the Manual of Tests and Criteria results from the decisions of the United Nations Committee of Experts on the Transport of Dangerous Goods up to its twentieth (1998) session.

Corrections to the third revised edition are included in Part I of this publication.

The amendments contained in Part II have been adopted by the Committee at its twenty-first session in 2000 (refer to ST/SG/AC.10/27/Add.2). They concern new provisions for the classification criteria and testing procedures for lithium batteries.
