Proposal to amend to document GRSP/2018/10 in order to clarify the torque specification for attaching seats and to delay the proposed entry into force.

Proposal to add injury criteria in relation to the neck bending moment along the lateral axis (not to exceed 57 Nm when stretched), clarify the distance between the seats to align with IN R107, and annulation of the proposal to delete paragraph 2.1.2 because the scope of UN R80 provides for testing of seats for vehicles of M₂ and M₃ categories of II, III and B classes where approval is allowed via testing without a vehicle and mounted rigidly on a test platform.

Proposal to delete Appendix 5 as a basis for type approval and thereby end static testing as a compliance option.

Proposal to amend Appendix 1 by reducing the forward movement of the head of the manikin to 1.2 m in alignment with UN R14. The proposal would also limit the movement of the seat anchorages to 100 mm to ensure a minimum residual space for the passenger between the seats. Lastly, to ensure that seat fixations are reliably fastened after relocation, the proposal would require the necessary information to be marked directly on the seat and provided in the owner’s manual.

Proposal to raise requirements for the attachments and fittings of the seat (as a prelude to the eventual deletion of static test methods in favor of dynamic testing).

Proposal to delete Appendix 5 and thereby end static testing as a compliance option. In addition, this proposal amends Appendix 1 by reducing the forward movement of the head of the manikin to 1.2 m in alignment with UN Regulation No. 14. Further, the proposal would limit the movement of the seat anchorages to 100 mm to ensure a minimum residual space for the passenger between the seats. Lastly, to ensure that seat fixations are reliably fastened after relocation, the proposal would require the necessary information to be marked directly on the seat and provided in the owner’s manual.
