Car seats are for travelling, carrycots are for sleeping. Newborns need to sleep as much as possible in the best possible position. That's why Maxi-Cosi invented the first R129 (R129) approved carrycot: the Jade. Thanks to its 180° flat sleeping position, babies can travel and sleep at the same time for a longer period of time in the healthiest and safest way. With the Jade, you can ease your mind and travel for longer when you take baby with you during long-distance family trips and even during the day-to-day activities, safely and without needing to wake baby up. Offering ultimate comfort for sleeping babies, Jade car cot is easy to install in the car on the FamilyFix3 base which provides safe Isofix and a convenient Slide and Go installation.

Why lie flat?

Experts have long recommended that lying flat is the best position for small babies to sleep in. It's crucial for your baby's body growth and brain development that they can move, stretch, and exercise their arms and legs. Carrycots and prams that provide this position on the move have long been the preferred option for newborn babies. And now, with Jade, you have the extra flexibility of using the Jade carrycot as a full lie-flat option too.

Safety:

• Under no circumstances should a rearward-facing 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 in making them the 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 to fit 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 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 manufacturer's 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 adhere to strict safety regulations and conform to one of the following two types of seats:

• Height-based seats - These seats adhere to the safety regulation R129. They must be rear-facing until your child is over 15 months old. Your child can use a forward-facing child car seat when they’re over 15 months old. You must check the seat to make sure it’s suitable for the height of your child. i-Size is an enhancement of R129 that makes it easier to confirm your car seat's compatibility with any i-Size approved vehicle - reducing the risk of installing your car seat incorrectly. While all i-Size car seats meet the R129 testing standards, not every R129 car seat is an i-Size compatible seat.
• Weight-based seats - These seats adhere to the R44.04 car seat regulation. The seat your child can use (and the way they must be restrained in it) depends on their weight.

The below table is a rough guide as to how the car seats can relate to a child’s age based on the average child's weight or height depending on the regulation chosen.
