UN R129: Proposal for Supplement 2 to the 03 series of amendments
Document WP.29/2019/40
15 April 2019

Proposal to

  1. 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
  2. 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
  3. specify the dimensions of the approval number
  4. update i-Size universal ISOFIX, Specific Vehicle ISOFIX, i-Size Booster seat and Specific Vehicle Booster seat numbering (omitted in WP29-2018-045)
  5. rearrange the dimensions mark for arrangements of the approval mark where used in combination with the module mark
  6. change the 145 cm stature of the Specific Vehicle Booster seat to 150 cm stature as this is the correct upper limit, and
  7. clarify that Conformity of Production assessments shall be conducted under the same requirements as those of the original approval or, if applicable, the extension of the approval.

29. The expert from Spain introduced GRSP-64-06, GRSP-64-02-Rev.1, GRSP-64-03-Rev.1, GRSP-64-04-Rev.1 and GRSP-64-05-Rev.1 which aimed at providing better provisions for the dummy’s head displacement when surpassing the reference plane DE during frontal and rear impact tests of forward facing Enhanced Child Restraint Systems (ECRS). She explained that these documents were revised proposals and have already been introduced at the May 2018 session of GRSP (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/63, para. 33) to provide better rationales for the sled test. GRSP adopted GRSP-64-02-Rev.1, GRSP-64-03-Rev.1, GRSP-64-04-Rev.1 and GRSP-64-05-Rev.1 as reproduced in Annex V to the session report. The secretariat was requested to submit GRSP-64-02-Rev.1 as draft Supplement 9 to the original version of UN Regulation No. 129, GRSP-64-03-Rev.1 as draft Supplement 6 to the 01 series of amendments, GRSP-64-04-Rev.1 as draft Supplement 5 to the 02 series of amendments and GRSP-64-05-Rev.1 as draft Supplement 2 to the 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 129 for consideration and vote at the June 2019 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1.

30. The expert from Spain also introduced GRSP-64-10 to present GRSP-64-07, GRSP-64-08-Rev.1 and GRSP-64-09 which aimed at updating the arrangements of the approval mark. GRSP adopted GRSP-64-07, GRSP-64-08-Rev.1, GRSP-64-09 and GRSP-64-31 as reproduced in Annex V to the session report. The secretariat was requested to submit GRSP-64-08-Rev.1 and GRSP-64-31 as part of (see para. 29) draft Supplement 5 to the 02 series of amendments, GRSP-64-07 and GRSP-64-09 as part of (see para. 29) draft Supplement 2 to the 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 129 for consideration and vote at the June 2019 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1.

31. The expert from CLEPA introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2018/24 to clarify the definition of “infant carrier” and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2018/28 to clarify that certain user information was displayed sufficiently. The expert from Spain introduced GRSP-64-28 to improve the consistency of the information. GRSP adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2018/24 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2018/28 as amended by Annex V to the session report. The secretariat was requested to submit ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2018/24 as part of (see paras. 29 and 30) draft Supplement 2 to the 03 series of amendments and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2018/28 as part of (see para. 29) draft Supplement 9 to the original version of UN Regulation No. 129, as part of (see paras. 29 and 30) Supplement 6 to the 01 series of amendments, as part of (see paras. 29 and 30) draft Supplement 5 to the 02 series of amendments and as part of (see paras. 29 and 30) draft Supplement 2 to the 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 129 for consideration and vote at the June 2019 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1.

32. The expert from CLEPA withdrew ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2018/31 and introduced GRSP-64-42 to clarify that conformity of production (COP) testing should be conducted using the same requirements which were effective at the time of the initial approval or any later applicable extension. The expert from Italy suggested that a similar requirement could be handed over to other UN Regulations to ensure consistency of COP testing. GRSP adopted GRSP-64-42 as reproduced in Annex V to the session report. The secretariat was requested to submit GRSP-64-42 as part of (see paras. 29–31) draft Supplement 5 to the 02 series of amendments and as part of (see paras. 29–31) draft Supplement 2 to the 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 129 for consideration and vote at the June 2019 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1.
