Final informal group version of the draft text under preparation by the CRS informal group (for eventual submission as GRSP/2015/9/Rev.1, superseding the original document) to extend the scope of UN R129 to include Non-Integral child restraint systems (“Universal Booster” or “Specific to vehicle Booster”). This version has been prepared in order to reach a definitive agreement on the text to be presented to GRSP.
Discussion on vehicle specific testing and fitting requirements: Reworded text is reviewed. Fitment testing is responsibility of OEM. Dynamic testing can be done either on a sled or in car.
Currently the text is not clear enough about who decides if a sled or body in white needs to be used for the dynamic test.
Reiner NETT (TAKATA): so this is basically not different than R44-04 semi-universal, is that true?
Pierre CASTAING (UTAC & chairman): Yes, Example an R3 product, needs a dynamic test in test bench, fitting information leaflet can indicate it is compatible with all vehicles with an R3 seating position. In Phase 2 we need to include into ECE R16 a standard fixture for high back booster (F5 Fixture?) with a width of [500] mm
