Scope1.1 This consumer safety specification covers establishment of requirements, test methods, and marking requirements topromote safe use of an infa
4、nt bouncer seat by an occupant and a caregiver.1.2 For purposes of this consumer safety specification, an infant bouncer seat is a freestanding product intended to support anoccupant in a reclined position to facilitate bouncing by the occupant, with the aid of a caregiver or by other means. Intende
5、doccupants are infants who have not developed the ability to sit up unassisted (approximately 0 to 6 months of age).1.3 This consumer safety specification is intended to minimize the risk of injury to an occupant resulting from normal use andreasonably foreseeable misuse or abuse of an infant bounce
