1、Designation: F3118 16F3118 16aStandard 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 revi
2、sion. 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 addresses incidents associated with infant inclined sleepproducts identified by the U.S. Con
3、sumer Product 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 intend
4、ed to cover 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.T
5、his consumer 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 consu
6、mer safety specification establishes safety performance requirements, test methods, and labeling requirements tominimize the hazards to infants presented by infant inclined sleep products as identified in the introduction.1.2 This consumer safety specification is intended to minimize the risk of inj
7、uries to infants resulting from normal use andreasonably foreseeable misuse or abuse of infant inclined sleep products.1.3 This consumer safety performance specification covers a free standing product with an inclined sleep surface primarilyintended and marketed to provide sleeping accommodations fo
8、r an infant up to 5 months old or when the infant begins to roll overor pull up on sides, whichever comes first. It also covers a smaller product intended for newborns up to 3 months old or whennewborn begins to wiggle out of position or turn over in the product or weighs more than 15 lb (6.8 kg), w
9、hichever comes first.It also covers infant and newborn inclined sleep product accessories, which are attached to, or supported by, another product withthe same age or abilities, or both, as the free standing products. If the inclined sleep product can be converted into a product forwhich another AST
10、M standard consumer safety specification exists, the product shall meet the applicable requirements of thatstandard. For example, an inclined sleep product that can have the recline angle adjusted below 10 shall also comply with theapplicable requirements of Consumer Safety Specification F2194.1.4 N
11、o infant inclined sleep product produced after the approval date of this consumer safety specification shall, either by labelor other means, indicate compliance with this specification unless it conforms to all requirements contained herein.1.5 The following precautionary caveat pertains only to the
12、 test method portion, Section 7, of this consumer safety specification:This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of theuser of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the ap
