*OMB Number*: 2127-0511.

A permanently attached label gives quick-look information on whether the restraint meets the safety requirements, recommended installation and use and warnings against misuse. Manufacturers are also required to provide owner registration cards and label to their child restraints with a message informing users of the importance of registering the restraint.                 

*Affected Public:*                     The manufacturer's producing child restraint systems.                 

*Estimated Total Annual Burden:*                     90,000.                 

*Comments are invited on*: Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Department, including whether the information will have practical utility; the accuracy of the Departments estimate of the burden of the proposed information collection; ways to enhance the quality, utility and clarity of the information to be collected; and ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
