Proposal to clarify that the recently increased height requirements for the effective upper belt anchorage (Supplement 4 to the 07 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 14) can be satisfied by means of a “belt adjustment device for height” that is part of the belt-anchorage as well as a device that is part of the belt itself, each with a distinctive approach. The proposals are presented as draft Supplement 7 to the 07 series of amendments to Regulation No. 14 and draft Supplement 6 to the 06 series of amendments to Regulation No. 16.

The current text of UN R14 requires the installation of two ISOFIX anchorages in a vehicle. Vehicles with only one seat row are exempted from this requirement. This proposal refines the previous German proposal to introduce provisions for at least one set of ISOFIX anchorages in vehicles having only one seat row or having several seat rows with only one seat per row (document GRSP-53-11) which modified the proposal for Supplement 6 to the 07 series of amendments (document GRSP/2013/15).
