Section 3.3.9 says:
The period start at 18:00:00 on January 1, 1997 and lasting 5 hours and 30 minutes would be: 19970101T180000Z/PT5H30M
It should say:
The period start at 18:00:00 on January 1, 1997 and lasting 5 hours and 30 minutes would be: 19970101T180000/PT5H30M
Notes:
I do not know if this is an editorial or technical issue.
If I understand the datetime value (Section 3.3.5) correct the last character should only be "Z" if the value is in UTC.
In the first example in section 3.3.9 UTC is explicitely mentioned but not in the second example.
