Agenda item 4.6.5. Proposal for Supplement 5 to the 02 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 129 (Enhanced Child Restraint Systems)

Proposal to

introduce new and modified labeling and to clarify packaging information to distinguish between forward-facing-only, rear-facing-only, and convertible CRS in order to reduce the risk of users misusing these enhanced CRS
clarify that assessment of the DE plane only applies to rearward-facing Child Restraint Systems (CRS) in UN Regulation No. 44 and therefore does not apply to forward-facing child restraints that maintain structure of the child restraint behind the head of the dummy
specify the dimensions of the approval number
correct the term “Regulation No. 129-02” to “UN Regulation No. 129/02”
change the 145 cm stature of the Specific Vehicle Booster seat to the 150 cm stature as this is the upper limit, and
modify the approval markings for consistency between technical services and approval authorities and between the labels of products approved under the 02 and 03 series.
