Product Information

They’re not designed to absorb the forces of a car crash, but are used to keep the seat in place when it’s not in use, as an unsecured child car seat becomes a very heavy projectile in an accident.

There has recently been a lot of buzz around safety in a car with people actually taking NCAP rating seriously. This made people switch from unsafe cars to robustly built cars. But there is still a very important aspect to this whole safety spectrum that we ignore, that is child safety. Isofix child seats Already chosen your favourite Maxi-Cosi ISOFIX car seat , but not sure if it fits your car? Find out which of our car seats fit your car in our Car Fitting List . if you look at the crash test data for some restraints, the isofix is less safe whilst for others it’s safer. Child restraints needed to utilise the three-point static safety belt of the vehicle as an anchorage medium. The diverse design features of so many different vehicles in the marketplace made this a formidable task, and hence manufacturers looked at an alternative medium to the three-point static belt for installation.Alternatively, look for the ISOFIX identifier on the rear seats. Normally, these are the two outboard positions on the rear seat. They may also be found in the front seat of some vehicles. With the three-point static safety belt there are a number of issues that makes installing car seats a little bit more complex. This complexity could affect the proper installation of the child restraint, which could lead to the seat not being safe in a collision. ISOFIX points became mandatory in cars with four or more seats in November 2012, so any car manufactured after this time will definitely have it. Many carmakers have been fitting ISOFIX points for far longer than that; numerous cars from the 2000s have ISOFIX. That includes a 2003 Renault Megane, a 2006 Honda Civic and a 2009 Ford Fiesta. A notable exception is the 2004-2011 Ford Focus (and the related Ford C-MAX). First, what type of seat is appropriate for the age and size of your child? If your child is under 13kg and 85cm, they may use an infant carrier. Another option is a convertible car seat, which can grow with your child for a number of years. All Joie convertible car seats are suitable from birth. Convertible seats can then be used with the 5-point harness restraint until your child is 18kg or 105cm, at which point they should move to booster mode. Isofix is also known as LATCH in the US and UAS or CANFIX in Canada, and sometimes as UCSS (Universal Child Safety Seat System). As a ‘standard’ car seat, it’s not exactly standard, but it goes a long way to improving the safety of your child in the car. There are many different types of Isofix fittings so you need to be sure that the one in your car matches the one on your child’s car seat. Is my car fitted with Isofix?

The ISOFIX introduction into vehicles began as early as 2002 in Europe. Manufacturers of child restraints, or baby car seats, were challenged with trying to get their product to work effectively in as many vehicles in the marketplace as possible. The tether point is usually found in the boot somewhere, but not always, so refer to your car’s manual to find out where it is in your car. Anything that can simplify the task of being a parent is always cool. However at this level, cool also means safer, and this is exceptionally reassuring for parents. Who are the main end-users?

Is this necessary?Read: How to install ISOFIX http://www.maxi-cosi.com/car-seats/car-seat-safety/choosing-a-child-car-seat/what-is-isofix/how-to-install-an-isofix-car-seat.aspx What advantages does it have over other such systems? Isofit connectors are more like large hooks on the end of flexible arms or sometimes straps (rather than the rigid arms of Isofix connectors). When it comes to child safety in passenger cars, there is much talk around ISOFIX, a system for installing child car seats safely and correctly.

Modern two-seat cars like the Mazda MX-5 now feature ISOFIX points on the passenger seat, while an increasing number of cars offer three or more seats of ISOFIX points. The Volkswagen Touran has five, while the Audi Q7 offers up to six sets of ISOFIX points. Both of these work to prevent the car seat tipping forward in an accident and you can find out more about them below.As previously stated, ISOFIX has the advantage of being universal, and will thus accommodate the child restraint installation regardless of the brand or model of seat. Where can I get it? When securing the top tether, it’s vital to make sure you’re attaching the strap to the correct anchor point in your car, as sometimes a tether point can be mistaken for a headrest stem or luggage tether fixing (neither of these are meant for use with a child car seat and aren't designed to withstand the forces of a crash). This can either be a support leg, which comes built into the seat or seat base, or a top tether (a strap that attaches to a mount somewhere behind the rear seat).
