Infant Car Seat or Lie-Flat Car Cot
Matrix cup infant carrier, suitable from birth either sat-up as a car seat or lying flat as a car cot.
We are becoming more aware that babies should not be sat upright in a car seat for long periods, with this in mind this Jane Infant carrier can be used in two ways as a flat cot across the back of the car, taking up 2 seats, or rear facing in an upright seating position using just one seat.
Upright
In the upright position baby will face the back of the car, if used in the front the air bag must be deactivated to prevent serious injury, or death. Ideally it will be placed in the rear of the car with a mirror above for easy safe visual checks. The seat sits at 130 degrees; the enfolding structure also provides protection from side impacts.When used in this way the seat is in the group 0 taking baby up to 10kgs in weight around 11 months.
Baby has a three point harness with a single pull adjustment ensuring the harness is always at the correct tension whatever clothing baby is wearing.
Lie flat
When used as a lie flat infant carrier the cot is placed across the back seats, taking up two seats and using two adult 3point seat belts. The cot lies at 180 degrees reclined, with the 3 point harness securing baby in place.
The cot is classed as a group 0 this is safe until baby is 10kg this is around 11 months. Baby can travel for longer periods in this flat position than sitting up, so maybe the answer if friends and family live long distances away, giving the versatility of an up right seat for local short trips and the cot for longer journeys, although you may find the seat very upright for a newborn baby.
Travel System
The Matrix Cup can be used with any of the Jane pushchairs this will fit on to the chassis facing mother, and can be used in a range of recline positions, not all recline positions can be used while in the car.
The Matrix Cup comes in the full range of Jane colours and is supplied with a sun canopy with music pod, a reversible roll back apron and insect mesh. All fabric that comes into contact with baby is 100% cotton to ensure baby's delicate skin is kept a cool and comfortable. An identification label will ensure that your seat does not become mixed up with another when at nursery.
The handle is easy to adjust from car mode to carry mode with a single button on the top.It is this button that attaches and releases the Matrix Cup from any of the Jane chasssis when used as part of a travel system.
Optional accessories include cosy colour coordinated Kayak footmuff and rain cover.
