Car seats group 1

Transporting your child safely in a group 1 car seat

To transport your child safely in the car, you use a car seat. When your child is newborn, choose the smallest size seat, namely the group 0 car seat. Once your child reaches 75 cm, it's time to switch to a larger seat. The next-generation seat is a group 1 car seat. This seat is suitable for children weighing 9 to 18 kg and measuring 60 to 105 cm tall. 

Nowadays, when classifying car seats into different groups, the height of your child is taken into account in relation to the group of the car seat. This is the I-Size approval standard. This European safety law makes it very easy for you as a parent to determine which seat is suitable for your child. Your child's height is the same as their clothing size. It is important that your child fits properly in the car seat so they receive sufficient support.

Installing the car seat in the car

A group 1 car seat can be installed in the car in various ways. This can be done using the car's 3-point seat belt or with a separate Isofix base. An Isofix base makes installing the car seat very easy and safe, ensuring the car seat is always securely fastened. Isofix is ​​the safest, easiest, and fastest way to install a car seat. The Isofix system is located in the car between the backrest and the seat cushion. There are two attachment points, and the Isofix base can be clicked into place. Choosing a 360-degree rotating base makes things even easier! This allows the car seat to rotate fully, making it easy to remove your child from the seat. Some group 1 car seats are equipped with integrated Isofix. In this case, the Isofix system is integrated into the seat, eliminating the need for a separate base.

A car seat that grows with you

If you're looking for a car seat that lasts longer, you can choose a group 0/1/2/3 or a group 1/2/3 seat. These seats can be adjusted so they grow with your child, allowing you to enjoy them for a longer period of time. 

A group 0/1/2/3 car seat can be used from birth up to a maximum weight of 36 kg. This corresponds to a height of 135 cm and an age of approximately 10/12 years. From the moment your child reaches 135 cm, they are no longer required to sit in the car seat. The car seat can be used for a long time because the backrest and headrest can be adjusted to different heights and positions. 

A group 1/2/3 car seat is suitable for a weight of 9 kg up to a maximum of 36 kg. This corresponds to a height of 60 cm to 135 cm. These chairs can also be adjusted to different sizes and positions so that they can be used for a long time.
