'
5.  5.1. For the purpose of determining the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of a vehicle submitted to multi-stage type-approval, as defined in Article 3(7) of Directive 2007/46/EC, the base vehicle, as defined in Article 3(18) of that Directive, shall be tested in accordance with points 2 and 3 of this Annex.
 5.2. The reference mass to be used for the testing shall be the one resulting from the following formula:
RM = RMBase_Vehicle + DAM
In this formula:
