This SAE Recommended Practice provides design guidelines to vehicle manufacturers by establishing the characteristics of top tether anchorage provisions required for securing child restraints so equipped in forward facing rearmost designated passenger seating positions of all passenger cars, multipurpose passenger vehicles, and trucks and buses of 4500 kg (10 000 lb) Gross Vehicle Weight Rating or less, accommodating six occupants or less. Further, it provides interface information to child restraint manufacturers.

The purpose of this SAE Recommended Practice is to provide design guidelines to vehicle manufacturers by establishing characteristics of anchorages and attachment hardware provisions at the passenger front seat outboard seating location for securing a child seating system in vehicles equipped with automatic (passive) restraint systems that are not suitable for use with a child seating system. Further, it is intended to provide interface information to child restraint manufacturers. The anchorage and hardware configuration and location as well as interface parameters are described along with performance and identification requirements.

Define recommendations for color coding of child restraint labels, specifically focused on the information contained therein and whether it provides information for installation in a forward facing, rear facing, or booster mode.

1. SCOPE These guidelines should be considered: When implementing the LATCH system in vehicle seating positions that will be designated by the vehicle owner’s manual and in the information included in the owners manual. When implementing the LATCH system in child restraint designs that include the LATCH system and in the information included in the instruction manual

To harmonize and define terminology associated with occupant protection for children for vehicle manufacturers and child restraint manufacturers in the United States and Canada.

The scope of this SAE Recommended Practice is to promote compatibility between child restraint systems and vehicle rear seats and seat belts. Design guidelines are provided to vehicle manufacturers for certain characteristics of rear seats and seatbelts, and to child restraint system (CRS) manufacturers for corresponding CRS features so that each can be made more compatible with the other. The Child Restraint System Accommodation Fixture, shown in Figure 1, is used to represent a CRS to the designers of both the vehicle interior and the CRS for evaluation of each product for compatibility with the other. The features of the accommodation fixture are described as each is used. A CRS accommodation template of transparent plastic, now shown, represents the side of the accommodation fixture for use in approximating its installed position on design drawings.
