# Commission Decision of 7 March 2013 on the safety requirements to be met by European standards for certain seats for children pursuant to Directive 2001/95/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on general product safety (Text with EEA relevance) (2013/121/EU), Division: Restraint system

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

The high chair must be designed to secure children in the sitting position and to prevent falls when they stand up and lose their balance, either by using a restraint system comprising a crotch restraint and a horizontal component or by means of an integral harness. If the high chair is fitted with a reclinable backrest, it must have an integral harness.
Static and dynamic mechanical stress during reasonable foreseeable use of the high chair must not cause permanent damage, which can impair their safety and normal function, to crotch restraints, waist belts and straps of the integral harness.
When a high chair is fitted with a harness or belt attachment points, static and dynamic mechanical stress during reasonable foreseeable use of the high chair must not cause permanent damage to them which can impair their safety and normal function.
If an integral harness or a belt is supplied, it must be adjustable and static and dynamic mechanical stress during reasonable foreseeable use of the high chair must not cause permanent damage to it which can impair its safety and normal function.
