Key features

• Unique protection for the neck and chest - Despite good planning and careful driving, you can never prepare for a collision. To protect your child's sensitive neck area in case of a frontal impact, Britax Römer has developed a shock-absorbing foam pad. It prevents the impact of your child's chin on their chest, absorbing up to 30% * of the energy. A jerky forward head movement is reduced, and the neck is protected. At the same time, it provides additional padding around the edges of the seat belt. *Britax Römer tests 2019
• Advanced Side Impact Protection – SICT - Britax's SICT offers superior protection to your child in the event of a side collision. It reduces impact forces by minimising the distance between the car and the car seat and deforms to absorb the energy before it reaches your little one. To benefit from the protection, simply adjust the SICT on the side of the car seat closest to the door. SICT reduces the side impact forces by up to 40%*. * Britax Römer internal tests and simulations
• SecureGuard - The SecureGuard helps to protect your child’s delicate abdominal area by adding an extra – a 4th – contact point to the 3-point seat belt. By keeping the lap belt in an optimal position over your child’s pelvic bones SecureGuard helps reduce abdominal forces in the event of a frontal collision by up to 35 %*, and at the same time allows your child freedom of movement during the journey. *Britax Römer internal tests with a Q6 dummy, representing an average 6-year-old child.
• Easy adjustable, ergonomic headrest - Britax's headrest is designed specifically for the comfort of older children and can easily be adjusted to the correct position. Helpful markings at the back of the headrest guide parents to find the right headrest height every single time when they change the seat between cars or transport multiple children in the same seat.
• Air ventilation - Carefully placed air ventilation holes aid air circulation to keep your child comfortable for longer.
• Three seats in a row - The seat's slim and compact design allows for three seats to be installed in the back row of a wide range of cars.
• Removable cover - Things can get messy in the car – drinks can spill, and children can get car sick. That’s why we’ve designed a machine washable seat cover that can easily be removed, so you can clean up quick and get on your way.
• High-back booster protection - The high-back boosters protect your child in 3 ways: the seat shell provides head to hip protection for your child, especially in the event of a side impact; the upper and lower belt guides provide correct positioning of the seat belt; and the padded headrest provides safety and comfort for your child’s head and neck.

Safety:

• Under no circumstances should a car seat be used on a passenger seat where there is an active airbag.
• Correct fitting of all car seats and boosters is of paramount importance to make them most effective in the event of an accident. Not all car seats fit all cars and it is important to check for fitting suitability on all cars you intend fitting the seat to, as well as re-checking if you change your car.
• Always read the instruction booklet which comes with your car seat to achieve a safe and correct fitting, retaining the guide for future reference. We recommend fitting your car seat in advance of first using it.
• We recommend that babies shouldn`t be left in Group 0/0+ car seats (infant carriers) for prolonged periods.

Suitability:

• Please make sure that you check the car seat you choose is suitable for your car before ordering. This can be done in store with a Partner or on the car seat manufacturers website.
• Some of our shops offer a car seat fit test, where a Nursery advisor will test the display model in your car to check that it will fit properly. Please contact your local shop to see if this service is available. Alternatively, please contact the car seat manufacturer who will be able to advise whether their model will be suitable for your car.

Car seats are categorised into the following groups and it is imperative that a category is chosen so the child's weight or height depending on regulation chosen, falls within the range indicated:

Car Seat groups:

Note: some car seats will be approved in two or more groups. This just means that these seats have the ability to adapt as your child grows, meaning they can use them for longer.
