FAQs

• What is IsoFix?

  Answer

  IsoFix is a (new) attachment system for car seats in modern cars. Special IsoFix attachment points are installed in the car in the factory during production. This means that the car seat does not need to be installed in the car using the car seat belts. Car seats that are more than a few years old cannot be installed using this system. IsoFix seats have been specially designed for this system and are equipped with IsoFix adapters. That is why Maxi-Cosi introduced a special IsoFix seat on the market in December 2005: Maxi-Cosi CabrioFix with an IsoFix base for babies (Group +0) and Maxi-Cosi Priori-Fix for children ages 9 months to around 4 years (Group I).
  

• Is IsoFix safer than installing with a car seat belt?

  Answer

  If installed properly, a Maxi-Cosi car seat is the safest in its class. The IsoFix method prevents incorrect installation of the car seat, but is no safer than when the seat is installed using the traditional method. IsoFix prevents incorrect installation because a colour indicator (red or green) is used to indicate the correct installation of various parts.
  

• Why do babies have to travel in a rear-facing position?

  Answer

  Babies have a large and heavy head compared to the rest of their body. In addition, their neck muscles are not yet fully developed. If the baby is transported in a forward-facing position, his or her head will be thrown forward in the event of a head-on collision. This can cause serious neck injury and may even be fatal. By placing the baby in a rear-facing position, the forces exerted during the crash will be distributed across the baby’s entire back.
  

• How to ensure a correct Top Tether installation ?

  Answer

  What is key is to always check the Top Tether is correctly tight. An green indicator on the Top Tether is ensuring the correct tension.
  To obtain the best tension of the Top Tether, you should look for the shorter routing, going directly from the top of the car seat to the Top Tether hook (often located on the luggage compartment)
  We recommend to remove the headrest to avoid deviate the top tether routing from this shorter route, and consequently ensure a very tight installation in any situations.
  Installing the top tether in between the headrest or on top of the headrest can deviate his natural routing, and be less efficient in case of impact.
