Chipolino Twist is a versatile and safe child restraint system designed to provide optimal protection for your child during car journeys. Approved according to the latest safety standards, it offers a range of features to ensure your child's comfort and security.

Suitable for children weighing from 0 to 36 kg, Chipolino Twist can be used from birth up to approximately 12 years of age. It features an ISOFIX attachment system for secure installation in vehicles equipped with ISOFIX anchorages.

For newborns and infants up to 13 kg, the car seat can be installed in a rearward-facing position, providing enhanced head and neck protection in the event of a collision. As your child grows, the seat can be easily converted to a forward-facing position for children weighing 9-18 kg.

This child restraint system is designed and manufactured

in compliance with the requirements of Regulation 44 of the United Nations

Economic Commission for Europe concerning the safe transportation of chil-

dren, the provisions of the Product safety Directive 2001/95/EU of the Euro-

pean Parliament and The Council as well as the Consumer Protection Law of

Bulgarian Legislation.
