    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Technical Report covers a product which is designed to carry a child solely on the carer’s torso, which does not have integrated openings for the child’s limbs and is designed to allow the carer a hands-free operation when standing and/or walking. An integrated leg opening is an opening for the child’s legs which exists in the product prior to installation on the carer’s torso. A leg opening which is formed when the carer wears the product is not an integrated opening. Children’s slings are not covered by EN13209‑1 and EN13209‑2 .
