Overview
ISO 13216-1:1999/Amd 3:2006 is an international standard developed by ISO focusing on the safety measures for child restraint systems (CRS) in road vehicles. This amendment adds specifications for detecting the use of ISOFIX child restraint systems equipped with seat bight anchorages and attachments. The standard aims to enhance child safety during vehicle travel by improving CRS anchoring and enabling reliable detection when ISOFIX systems are in use.
The ISOFIX system offers a universal approach for securely anchoring child seats to vehicle seat structures, improving installation convenience and significantly reducing misuse risks. Amendment 3 specifically addresses detection methods, allowing vehicles to recognize properly installed ISOFIX CRS and enabling safety features, such as airbag deactivation in certain conditions.
Key Topics
- Seat Bight Anchorages: This refers to the critical anchorage points located near the junction of the seatback and the seat cushion, which provide the structural attachment for child restraint systems.
- ISOFIX Connector Dimensions: Clear specifications on maximum and minimum connector sizes to ensure compatibility and secure fitment with vehicle anchor bars, maintaining a maximum clearance of 1.5 mm between latch and bar.
- Detection Method: Introduction of a magnetic field-based detection system using a ferrite magnet and ferromagnetic materials embedded in the child seat connectors to reliably identify the presence of an ISOFIX CRS.
- Detection Apparatus and Procedure: Defined test setups include positioning of connectors, measurement points, and characteristics of magnets for accurately sensing ISOFIX connector engagement.
- Safety Integration: Enables vehicle systems to recognize child seats and potentially deactivate airbags or adjust safety features accordingly to increase child occupant protection.
- Compliance Criteria: Magnetic induction thresholds distinguishing “detected” versus “not detected” positions are clearly defined to ensure consistent and reliable identification.
Applications
- Child Safety Seats Manufacturing: Manufacturers of child restraint systems can use this standard to design seats that integrate reliably with ISOFIX anchorages and comply with detection specifications to enhance safety.
- Automotive Industry: Vehicle manufacturers can incorporate detection systems according to the standard to improve passive safety by identifying ISOFIX seat installation and enabling adaptive safety mechanisms like airbag suppression.
- Safety Testing Laboratories: Test agencies can utilize the described magnetic induction methods and apparatus for certification and verification of CRS compliance with ISOFIX detection requirements.
- Regulatory Bodies: Safety authorities can reference the amendments when drafting or updating national regulations governing child restraint anchorage systems to promote standardized safety measures.
- Automotive Aftermarket Equipment: Providers of child restraints and vehicle seats can ensure compatibility and conformance with international safety benchmarks by following ISO 13216-1 amendment guidelines.
Related Standards

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Amendment 3 to ISO 13216-1:1999 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 22, Road vehicles,
Subcommittee SC 12, Passive safety crash protection systems.
ISO 13216-1 describes a universal system for anchoring child restraint systems to vehicles.
The purpose of this system is to improve the overall safety performance of child restraints, particularly by
improving the convenience of installation and reducing the risk of misuse.
To further increase the child security, solutions to recognize the use of child seat complying with the ISOFIX
system, when fitted in a vehicle seating position equipped with airbags and to allow the disconnection of the
airbags in the event of impacts are studied by car manufacturers.
Annex C hereafter describes a basic solution allowing detection with a reliable manner the presence of an
ISOFIX child seat, when fitted into a vehicle.

Avant-propos
L'ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération mondiale d'organismes nationaux de
normalisation (comités membres de l'ISO). L'élaboration des Normes internationales est en général confiée
aux comités techniques de l'ISO. Chaque comité membre intéressé par une étude a le droit de faire partie du
comité technique créé à cet effet. Les organisations internationales, gouvernementales et non
gouvernementales, en liaison avec l'ISO participent également aux travaux. L'ISO collabore étroitement avec
la Commission électrotechnique internationale (CEI) en ce qui concerne la normalisation électrotechnique.
Les Normes internationales sont rédigées conformément aux règles données dans les Directives ISO/CEI,
Partie 2.
La tâche principale des comités techniques est d'élaborer les Normes internationales. Les projets de Normes
internationales adoptés par les comités techniques sont soumis aux comités membres pour vote. Leur
publication comme Normes internationales requiert l'approbation de 75 % au moins des comités membres
votants.
L'attention est appelée sur le fait que certains des éléments du présent document peuvent faire l'objet de
droits de propriété intellectuelle ou de droits analogues. L'ISO ne saurait être tenue pour responsable de ne
pas avoir identifié de tels droits de propriété et averti de leur existence.
L'Amendement 3 à l'ISO 13216-1:1999 a été élaboré par le comité technique ISO/TC 22, Véhicules routiers,
sous-comité SC 12, Systèmes de protection en sécurité passive.
L'ISO 13216-1 décrit un système universel pour fixer des systèmes de retenue pour enfants dans les
véhicules.
L'objectif de ce système est d'améliorer les performances globales de sécurité des retenues pour enfants,
particulièrement en améliorant la commodité d'installation et en réduisant le risque de mauvaise utilisation.
Pour accroître encore la sécurité des enfants, les constructeurs automobiles étudient des solutions pour
reconnaître l'utilisation d'un siège enfant comme conforme au système ISOFIX, quand un tel siège est monté
à bord d'un véhicule routier aux places assises équipées de plus de sacs gonflables et pour permettre la
déconnexion de ces sacs gonflables dans l'éventualité de chocs.
L'Annexe C présentée ci-après décrit une première solution de base consistant en la reconnaissance de
façon fiable de l'utilisation d'un siège ISOFIX, quand un tel siège est monté à bord d'un véhicule.
AVERTISSEMENT — Le propos de l'Annexe C n'est cependant pas de présenter une méthode de
vérification du bon verrouillage du système de fixation du siège enfant dans le véhicule.
