Proper use of restraints is one of the most basic and important factors in surviving an accident, whether itis in a motor vehicle or on board an aircraft. Accident investigations and scientific dynamic testing have indicated that it is not possible for a parent to physically restrain an infant or child, especially during sudden acceleration or deceleration, unanticipated or severe turbulence, or impact. In such scenarios, an infant or child who is not restrained in a child restraint system (CRS) may suffer serious or fatal injury.
Research on CRS has concluded that infants and children are at higher risk of sustaining injuries if they are not properly secured in a suitable device that has been approved for use on board the aircraft. The use of certaintypes of devices, not specifically designed for use with an aircraft seat, is detrimental to an infant/child's safety (seeChapter 2, 2.3). Such devices do not provide the same level of safety as CRS approved for use on board aircraft, or that provided to other passengers who occupy their own seats.
The purpose of this manual is to encourage the widespread use of CRS at an international level by presenting an internationally harmonized approach to the approval and use of CRS on board aircraft. In order to promote such harmonization, States are encouraged to incorporate the content of this manual into their guidance material andmake use of it in the development or amendment of regulations.
