This document specifies safety requirements and the corresponding test methods for fixed or folding reclined cradles intended for children up to when they start to try to sit up. This document applies also to car seats complying with UN ECE R44 or UN ECE R129 that can be used as reclined cradles according to manufacturer’s instructions. If usage as reclined cradle is not included in the product information or marketing material, car seats are excluded from the scope of this document. If a reclined cradle has several functions or can be converted into another function the relevant European standards apply to it.
