ABSTRACT
This consumer safety specification establishes the performance requirements and test methods to ensure the satisfactory performance of infant floor seats, which may include a tray, toys, or a restraint system. It seeks to minimize injuries to children resulting from normal usage and reasonably foreseeable misuse or abuse of infant floor seats by addressing incidents associated with infant floor seats, including injuries, caused by falls and tip-overs from both elevated and floor level surfaces. This specification does not address accidents and injuries resulting from the interaction of older children with children in infant floor seats. It also does not apply to pillow-like infant positioners that are generally constructed from fabric and stuffing for the purposes of positioning or lounging and do not have an active or passive restraint, or infant floor seats that were either blatantly misused or used in a careless manner with disregard to the warning statements and safety instructions provided with each product.
Performance requirements cover stability, structural integrity, occupant retention, and bounded openings, whereas test methods cover removal of protective components, single action release mechanism, stability, static load, dynamic load, restraint system, completely bounded openings, permanency of labels and warnings, and occupant retention. This specification also covers requirements for calibration and standardization, marking and labeling, and instructional literature.
SCOPE
1.1 This consumer safety specification covers the performance requirements and methods of test to ensure the satisfactory performance of infant floor seats.
1.2 This consumer safety specification is intended to minimize injuries to children resulting from normal usage and reasonably foreseeable misuse or abuse of infant floor seats. This consumer safety specification is not intended to address accidents and injuries resulting from the interaction of older children with children in infant floor seats.
1.3 For purposes of this consumer safety specification, an infant floor seat is a seat which is placed on the floor that is intended to contain a child who can hold his/her head up unassisted (approximately 4 months of age) until the child can either walk (approximately 12 months of age) or get in and out of the product by themselves. An infant floor seat may include a tray, toys, or a restraint system. This consumer safety specification does not include pillow-like infant positioners that are generally constructed from fabric and stuffing for the purposes of positioning or lounging and do not have an active or passive restraint.
1.4 No infant floor seat produced after the approval date of this consumer safety specification shall, either by label or other means, indicate compliance with this specification unless it conforms to all requirements contained herein.
1.5 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.
1.6 The following precautionary caveat pertains only to the test method portion, Section 7, of this specification: This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.7 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

ABSTRACT
This consumer safety specification covers the performance requirements and test methods designed to ensure the satisfactory performance, and hence, minimize injuries to children resulting from normal use and reasonably foreseeable misuse or abuse of portable hook-on chairs. Chairs that conform to this specification shall pass the following performance tests: chair drop test; static load test; seat and seat back disengagement test; chair bounce test; chair pull/push test; restraint system integrity and retention tests; chair assembly test for the latching mechanism to prevent unintentional folding; torque test; tension test; and labeling test. Instructional literature detailing information such as assembly, maintenance, cleaning, operating, folding, and warnings, where applicable, must be included.

1.3 For the purposes of this specification a chair is:
1.3.1 A seat made for the express purpose of seating and holding a child who can remain in a sitting position due to his or her own coordination.
1.3.2 Usually a legless seat constructed to locate the occupant at a table in such a position and elevation so that the surface of the table can be used as the feeding surface for the occupant.
1.3.3 Supported solely by the table on which it is mounted. These chairs are intended for use by children between the ages of six months and three years and who weigh no more than 37 lb (16.8 kg) (95th percentile male at three years).
1.4 No chair produced after the approval date of this consumer safety specification shall, either by label or other means, indicate compliance with this specification unless it conforms to all applicable requirements contained herein.
1.5 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.
1.6 The following precautionary caveat pertains to the test methods portion only, Section 7, of this specification: This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
