2、vision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis consumer safety specification is intended to minimize the risk of injury or death associatedwith a childs use of an infa

3、nt or infant/toddler rocker. The specific hazards addressed by thisspecification are product disassembly/collapse, stability, and falls from elevated surfaces.1. Scope1.1 This consumer safety specification covers establishment of requirements, test methods, and marking requirements topromote safe us

4、e of the rocker by an occupant and a caregiver.1.2 For purposes of this consumer safety specification, an infant rocker or infant/toddler rocker is a freestanding productintended to support an occupant in a seated, reclined position and to facilitate rocking by the occupant with the aid of a caregiv

5、eror by other means. Intended occupants for infant rockers are infants who have not developed the ability to sit up unassisted(approximately 0 to 6 months of age), and infant/toddler rockers have an extended use with occupants until toddler age(approximately 212 years of age). Both infant and infant

6、/toddler rockers include a restraint system.1.2 This specification does not cover positions or modes on products that recline to 10 or less above the horizontal or areintended primarily for sleeping. If the rocker can be converted into a product for which an ASTM standard consumer safetyspecificatio

7、n exists, the product shall meet the applicable requirements of that standard. For example, a rocker that converts to abassinet shall also comply with the applicable requirements of Consumer Safety Specification F2194 when in a bassinet mode. Thisspecification does not cover rockers intended for tod

8、dler only use without a restraint system, hand-held infant carriers, or inclinedsleep products that have the ability to rock or have a rocking mode.1.3 This consumer safety specification is intended to minimize the risk of injury to an occupant resulting from normal use andreasonably foreseeable mis

9、use or abuse of an infant or infant/toddler rocker.1.4 No rocker 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 This consumer safety s

10、pecification is not intended to address incidents and injuries resulting from the interaction of otherpersons with the occupant in the product or the incidents resulting from abuse or misuse by other children.1.6 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given

11、in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.1.7 The following precautionary caveat pertains only to the test methodmethods portion, Section 7, of this consumer safetyspecification: This standard does not purport to add

12、ress all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety safety, health, and healthenvironmental practices anddetermine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.8 This international standa
