ThuleElm 360 Rotating Toddler Car Seat, Blue

A comfortable and protective toddler seat Tailored safety and comfort for your growing child Thule Elm features the exclusive Thule Impact Protection System, designed to provide all-encompassing safety for your toddler. Alongside a 5-point padded seatbelt system and a large protective headrest, Thule Impact Protection System envelops your child in a secure, protective layer, protecting from all angles, ensuring every car ride is as safe as it can be.

Effortless installation

Thule Elm uses the same EasyDock technology as the infant seat, making it just as effortless to secure the seat onto the Thule Alfi base as it is with Thule Maple. A digital display integrated with the Thule SenseAffirm System provides real-time feedback, giving you the all-clear signal that you’ve correctly installed the system, eliminating any second-guessing.

Comfort in focus

Thule Elm is adaptable to your child’s growth and comfort needs. The seat offers rotation for convenient access. Furthermore, Thule Elm accommodates safe rearward-facing travel up to four years of age. With three recline options and an array of soft, comfy pads, your toddler is in for a cosy ride.

1. Intuitive installation With the EasyDock technology, it’s easy to secure Thule Elm onto the Thule Alfi ISOFIX base. The digital display provides instant visual confirmation of a correct, secure installation.

2. Unmatched safety Thule Impact Protection System and a 5-point padded seatbelt ensure the highest level of safety for your toddler. The easy-in feature streamlines buckling up, so you can focus on the road.

4. Adaptive design Large headrest and safety harness, both of which can be adjusted smoothly without any fixed steps, allowing them to be perfectly tailored to the child’s height as they grow.

8. Secure rotation lock For forward-facing access, a key must be pressed for rotation. This feature is designed to remind parents to check the seat’s positioning before use.

9. Hidden release key A hidden release key for detaching the seat from the base is locked during driving mode, preventing accidental misuse.

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 that 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.
• We also offer in-store and virtual appointments so you can access our All Things Baby services at a time and place to suit you. Click here to book your appointment. or find your nearest department store here.

All the car seats in our range are designed to give your child the best possible protection and meet the criteria set out in the R129 (iSize) safety regulation. A baby must travel in the safer rear-facing position up to the minimum recommended age of 15 months. Some R129 car seats can be used rear-facing until a child is 105cm tall, which is around 4 years old.

Side impact testing is assessed as part of the regulation to improve the protection of the child’s head and neck. R129 also makes use of the most high-tech crash test dummies which not only has improved sensor technology to test for greater sensitivity, but it also features more sensors on fragile areas of the body. iSize is an enhancement of R129 that makes it easier to confirm your car seat's compatibility with any iSize 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 iSize compatible seat.

R129 (iSize) car seats are classified by height only. 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 height. In some instances, we may still need to check the weight of the child within the height band due to the maximum mass load permitted on a vehicle’s ISOFIX points.

Type	Height of Child	Approx. Age of Child
Baby	40-85cm	Birth up to 15 months
Toddler	40-105cm	Birth up to 4 years
Toddler	40-150cm	Birth up to 12 years
Toddler	76-150cm	15 months up to 12 years
Child	100-150cm	4 to 12 years

Note: This is a rough guide only. Please always refer to the individual car seat’s guidance for more specific details. Some car seats will be approved for use across two or more height bands. This just means that these seats have the ability to adapt as your child grows, meaning they can use them for longer.
