Isofix bases are available for most of the seats. Each seat will be compatible with it’s corresponding base. Travel Systems are grouped to ensure that the car seat and base are compatible.
ISOFIX car seats and bases have 3 ISOFIX points:
- 2 ISOFIX connectors (metal bars) fit on the anchor points (metal clips) at the base of the vehicle seat.
- A top tether or support leg
The top tether anchor point is on the boot floor or the back of the seat bench. In most newer cars it’s highlighted with the top tether logo. The top tether hook of the car seat needs to be firmly attached to the hook, to secure the third ISOFIX point.
The support leg is on the floor of the car between the back and front seats (when installed on the rear bench) or between the front seat and dashboard (when installed on the passenger seat). To work correctly, the support leg of the car seat should be stable.
If you use a support leg, it is very important to check whether the floor of the car has a floor storage compartment.
If it has, you must check the car fitting list / instruction manual to see how you can use a support leg in combination with the compartment.
‘i-size‘ is a new EU safety regulation for child car seats (ECE R129). It was introduced in July 2013 to make child car seats easier to fit, provide better protection from side impacts and keep children rearward-facing for longer. i-size only applies to Isofix seats.
What makes i-Size safer?
- Children have improved head and neck protection
- Babies and toddlers up to 15 months old must travel in rear facing car seats
- You have to use ISOFIX – a system that makes the car seat easy to fit correctly in the car
- i-Size car seats will fit almost all ISOFIX cars
- You choose a car seat based on your baby’s length, rather than weight.
How is my child better protected by i-Size?
Rear facing car seats
These offer maximum protection to babies and toddlers by spreading most of the impact in a frontal collision.
Before July 2013, babies could be moved into a front facing car seat at approximately 9-12 months, which we learned was not old enough. The new regulation makes it mandatory for children to remain rear-facing for at least 15 months.
Side impact standards
This gives your child better protection if you’re hit side-on.
Better installation
It’s much harder to install an i-Size car seat incorrectly as it doesn’t rely on guiding a seatbelt round it. i-Size car seats simply click onto your car’s ISOFIX anchor points, and they fit almost all cars with ISOFIX.
Better fit
Because you can choose your i-Size car seat based on length rather than weight, your growing baby can stay in the seat for longer.
My car seat conforms to the previous regulation. Must I upgrade to i-Size?
No. i-Size doesn’t replace the previous regulation for the moment – it gives you another option when you buy a car seat. You can be confident that the i-Size option complies with current car seat laws.
All Group 0 infant seats can be installed with a safety belt and therefore a base is not necessary. It is important to ensure that you install the seat correctly to ensure that your baby is safe.
