Peg Perego ISIZE ISOFIX Base

The Peg Perego i-Size ISOFIX Base is a car seat base, made in Italy, that stays installed in your car so you can click your Peg Perego car seat on and off in seconds. It locks into your car's ISOFIX anchor points, with a support leg to the floor, so there's no seat belt to thread each time.

It's approved to UN R129 (i-Size) and works with the Primo Viaggio SLK and Primo Viaggio Lounge infant car seats, and the Viaggio FF105 toddler seat. With the Lounge, it's also how you use the flat recline position in the car.

What's in the box

• Peg Perego i-Size Base: With ISOFIX connectors and an adjustable support leg.

Key features

• Quick click-in: Fit the base once, then simply click the car seat on and off. It's ideal for the car you use every day.
• ISOFIX installation: Connects directly to your car's ISOFIX anchor points, without using the seat belt.
• Support leg: Rests on the car floor and reduces forward rotation in a crash. It's height-adjustable to suit your car.
• Lower risk of fitting mistakes: Independent testers found Peg Perego's infant seats easier to install correctly on the base than with a seat belt alone.
• i-Size (UN R129) approved: Tested to the latest European car seat standard.

Compatible car seats

• Primo Viaggio SLK: Rear-facing, from 40 to 87 cm (up to 13 kg).
• Primo Viaggio Lounge: Rear-facing, from 40 to 87 cm (up to 13 kg), including the flat recline position.
• Viaggio FF105: Peg Perego's forward-facing i-Size toddler seat.

Independent crash tests

• Primo Viaggio Lounge on the i-Size Base: "Good" (1.7) in the spring 2021 ÖAMTC / ADAC tests, with a very low risk of injury in front and side impacts.
• Primo Viaggio SLK on the i-Size Base: 4 stars in the spring 2022 European consumer tests, with a very low risk of injury in front and side impacts.

Specifications

Good to know

• Your car needs ISOFIX: Check that your car has ISOFIX anchor points in the seat you want to use, and that it's on Peg Perego's vehicle fitting list.
• Support leg and floor: The support leg must stand on the car floor. Some cars have under-floor storage compartments in front of the rear seats, which may not be suitable. Check your car's manual.
• Front seat airbags: Never fit the base in a front passenger seat with an active airbag.
• Car seat sold separately: The base doesn't include a car seat.
• Taxis and second cars: The Primo Viaggio SLK and Lounge can also be installed with a seat belt, so you can still use them in cars without a base.

How to care for it

• Wipe the base with a damp cloth and mild soap.
• Keep the ISOFIX connectors and the car seat attachment points free of crumbs, sand and grit, so the seat clicks in properly.
• Replace the base after any car accident, even if it looks undamaged.

Safe use

• Always follow the manual for the base and for your car seat.
• Before every trip, check that both ISOFIX connectors are locked, the support leg is touching the floor, and the car seat has clicked securely onto the base.
• Give the car seat a firm pull upwards after clicking it in, to check it's locked.
• Don't use a second-hand base unless you know its full history.

Pandylane Pro Tip: Fit the base a few weeks before your due date, and practise clicking the empty car seat on and off. On the day you bring your baby home, it'll take seconds instead of a stressful car park struggle.
