1、Designation: F3118 15Standard Consumer Safety Specification forInfant Inclined Sleep Products1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F3118; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A n
2、umber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis consumer safety specification addresses incidents associated with infant inclined sleep productidentified by the U.S. Consumer Prod
3、uct Safety Commission (CPSC).In response to incident data compiled by the CPSC, this consumer safety specification attempts tominimize the following: (1) fall hazards, (2) positional asphyxiation, and (3) obstruction of nose andmouth by bedding. This consumer safety specification is intended to cove
4、r normal use and reasonablyforeseeable misuse or abuse of inclined sleep products. This specification does not cover inclined sleepproducts that are blatantly misused or used in a careless manner that disregards the safety instructionsand warnings provided with each inclined sleep product.This consu
5、mer safety specification is written within the current state-of-the-art of infant sleepproduct technology and will be updated whenever substantive information becomes available thatnecessitates additional requirements or justifies the revision of existing requirements.1. Scope1.1 This consumer safet
6、y specification establishes safetyperformance requirements, test methods, and labeling require-ments to minimize the hazards to infants presented by infantinclined sleep products as identified in the introduction.1.2 This consumer safety specification is intended to mini-mize the risk of injuries to
7、 infants resulting from normal useand reasonably foreseeable misuse or abuse of infant inclinedsleep products.1.3 This consumer safety performance specification coversa free standing product with an inclined sleep surface primarilyintended and marketed to provide sleeping accommodationsfor an infant
8、 up to 5 months old or when the infant begins toroll over or pull up on sides, whichever comes first. It alsocovers a smaller product intended for newborns up to 3 monthsold or when newborn begins to wiggle out of position or turnover in the product or weighs more than 15 lb (6.8 kg),whichever comes
9、 first. It also covers infant and newborninclined sleep product accessories, which are attached to, orsupported by, another product with the same age or abilities, orboth, as the free standing products. If the inclined sleep productcan be converted into a product for which another ASTMstandard consu
10、mer safety specification exists, the product shallmeet the applicable requirements of that standard. Forexample, an inclined sleep product that can have the reclineangle adjusted below 10 shall also comply with the applicablerequirements of Consumer Safety Specification F2194.1.4 No infant inclined

12、, Section 7, of this consumer safety speci-fication: This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of re
