Proposal to further clarify the risk of installing a rearward-facing child restraint in a seating position that is equipped with a frontal airbag. The text is based on a document GRSP-52-06 as discussed during the 52nd GRSP session (document GRSP-52, para. 23).
22. The expert from Sweden introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2013/8 harmonizing UN Regulation No. 16 with UN Regulation No. 94 concerning the warning label provisions on risks of installing a rear-facing CRS in a seating position equipped with air bag. The expert from OICA introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2013/13, proposing an alternative solution.
23. Finally, GRSP was more in favour of a proposal fully aligning the two above-mentioned UN Regulations and adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2013/8 as amended by Annex IV to this report. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration and vote at their November 2013 sessions as draft Supplement 5 to the 06 series of amendments to the UN Regulation.
