How can I find out how to safely install my baby’s car seat?

If you buy a new car seat it will always come with printed instructions for fitting. If you have problems, contact the manufacturers and, if you purchased the seat from a High Street store, you will often find they have trained members of staff to show you how to fit it. If you have a Britax Duo Plus Isofix, you can download the instructions from this web site or more simply, watch this video!

In general, the fitting in a car depends on the type of seat. If you have a rear facing seat (which you should keep for as long as possible) it should be located in the centre of the rear seat while the next stage seats or boosters will be placed either side behind the driver and passenger seats.

If you wish to take a car seat on a plane, please note this is often required if a child is under 2. You will be restricted by the width of the seat which usually must be less than 16 inches. Call the airline to find out if your seat will fit the plane and once onboard, the cabin crew will help you fit your seat and settle your child comfortably.
