Nissan Engineering Standard

General Appearance Quality Specifications for

NES Automobile Interior Parts
1. SCOPE This Standard specifies general requirement specifications (hereafter referred to as general
appearance specifications) mainly pertaining to the appearance of automobile interior parts.
Remarks: 1. This Standard shall not be applicable when a particular requirement is stipulated by specification, drawings, etc.
otherwise prepared.
2. Some appearance specifications that are regarded as unnecessary in consideration of the item or location in a
particular product (vehicle) can be disregarded where an agreement has been reached between the parties concerned
with the delivery.
3. The units and numerical values in this Standard are SI units, and those given in { } in this Standard are based on the
conventional unit system and are appended for informative reference.

2. RELEVANT PARTS The relevant parts are shown in 6 below.

3. DEFINITION OF TERMS
3.1 General appearance:
Characteristics including color, luster, texture, etc. of parts. These shall be stipulated in specification,
drawings, etc.
3.2 General appearance specifications:
Some characteristics of parts can be measured physicochemically, while in the case of other
characteristics it may be difficult to make a physicochemical examination. In the latter case, a simpler
sensory evaluation is often made as quality specification. General appearance specifications incorporate
both physicochemical and sensory evaluation criteria.
3.3 Substandard point:
Location where the quality requirement unit deviates from the requirement value specified in the standard,
specification, drawings, etc.
3.4 Number of substandard points per unit:
Number of substandard points in the part, per unit.
3.5 Plural substandard points:
Two or more substandard points are present in the part, per unit.
3.6 Sample for acceptance:
The sample indicating quality threshold limits to determine whether it is a standard or substandard
product; shall be specified between the parties concerned with the delivery.
4. RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GENERAL APPEARANCE SPECIFICATIONS AND INSPECTION
STANDARD
4.1 Handling of multiple substandard points:
Multiple substandard points of parts shall be accepted. However, if they are considered to be
inappropriate in each product (vehicle) in terms of product function, the acceptance criteria of the
substandard points shall be determined between the parties concerned with the delivery, and shall be
specified in the Parts Inspection Standard.
4.2 Certification method of general appearance specifications:
The certification method by the supplier (inspection method, inspection frequency, etc.) of general
appearance specifications shall be stipulated in the Parts Inspection Standard.

<Definition of dark and light colors>

Based on the matched resin color for interior, the following classification should be used as the guideline. See
ANNEX1 for details.
Dark color: Black, dark grey, grey, brown, etc.
Light color: Light grey, beige, etc.

<Definition of zone>
The following divisions of the zone shall be used to define visibility when mounted on vehicle.
Zone Definition
Area that can be visible in normal posture.
A
Area that can be frequently touched in normal operation.
Area that can be hardly visible in normal posture.
Area that can be visible in opening/closing.
B Area that can be rarely touched.
* Gathers and perforation on the main area shall be treated as B zone.
* See ANNEX 2 for how to define areas of less visible parts.

[3] BACK bottom end ･･･ Area facing against the rear end area of BACK
[4] BACK top area ･･･ Area covered with the bottom of HRST while HRST is retracted
[5] Inner ceiling surface of armrest retracting space

* If a single cut-out part covers both A and B zone, then, it is acceptable to partially apply B
zone criteria as applicable, instead of applying A zone criteria to the entire part.

<Definition of allowable limits>

The hatched areas above [1] to [6] shall be treated as Grade 2 surfaces as defined by AVES.
Thus, even though classified as A zone, the “B zone” criteria shall apply to them because they are “less visible
areas.”
However, the A zone criteria shall apply to “linear scars and scratches” because they are easily spotted.

<Scope>
・ Applicable to any vehicle type
・ Applicable to each row of seat
・ Applicable to any color

<Supplement>
For other areas, it is also acceptable to apply the B zone criteria to areas judged as equivalent to Grade 2 surfaces based
on the use by customers.
(Example: Front and side surfaces, etc. with ottoman used)
In each project, the designing section should confirm with CA0 and determine whether the application of the B zone
criteria to areas other than the above [1] to [6] is acceptable or not.
Upon defining less visible areas, check how each area is seen with the parts installed onto the vehicle, then determine B
zone areas on the development view of the pattern. The applicable dimensions should be indicated on the view.
