UN R129: Proposal for Supplement 2 to the 03 series of amendments
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
update i-Size universal ISOFIX, Specific Vehicle ISOFIX, i-Size Booster seat and Specific Vehicle Booster seat numbering (omitted in WP29-2018-045)
rearrange the dimensions mark for arrangements of the approval mark where used in combination with the module mark
change the 145 cm stature of the Specific Vehicle Booster seat to 150 cm stature as this is the correct upper limit, and
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.
This proposal (WP.29/2019/40) was adopted by the World Forum. Thirty-nine Contracting Parties out of the 54 applying UN R129 were present for the vote by AC.1. Thirty-nine voted in favor with zero against and zero abstaining.
