Perguntas frequentes sobre carrinhos Joolz

From what age or height is a car seat rated up to 150 cm used?

These group 2/3 or i-Size seats for older children are designed roughly from 3 to 12 years old, until your child reaches 150 cm or switches to using the car's seat belt directly. The main criteria are the height and weight stated by the manufacturer.

Do these seats use the car's seat belt or their own harness?

At this stage, your child is secured by the car's own seat belt, which the seat positions correctly over the shoulder and hips. ISOFIX fitting, where fitted, keeps the seat stable, but it's the car's seat belt that restrains your child.

Is a car seat with ISOFIX better, or one simply resting on the seat?

Isofix fixing keeps the seat firmly attached to the bench even when your child isn't sitting in it, stopping it from shifting. Models such as the Kidfix Pro or the RodiFix use Isofix. A seat without Isofix is also safe as long as it's correctly positioned, but Isofix adds stability and convenience.

Does your child need a backrest, or is the booster cushion enough?

It's recommended to keep the backrest on for as long as possible, as it protects against side impacts and positions the seat belt correctly. Backless booster seats are only suitable for older children, within the limits set by the manufacturer.

What's the difference between an i-Size seat and a group 2/3 one?

i-Size car seats, under R129, are classified by the child's height and include enhanced side-impact testing, while group 2/3 seats are based on weight, between 15 and 36 kg. Both are suitable for this age range; the choice depends on the model and compatibility with your car.

Up to when should a child use a car seat?

In Portugal, it's recommended that children use a restraint device until they reach 135 cm in height, and it's advisable to extend this up to 150 cm. Only after that should they use just the seat belt. Always check the limits shown on the seat's product sheet.
