FAQs

What is the age range for the Joie i-Bold™?

The Joie i-Bold™ is suitable for children from approximately 15 months to 12 years old, or from 76 to 150 cm in height.

Can I use the Joie i-Bold™ in any car?

The Joie i-Bold™ is compatible with vehicles that have ISOFIX anchor points and a top tether. Always check your car's manual for compatibility.

How do I clean the car seat cover?

The seat cover is machine washable at a maximum temperature of 30°C. See care instructions for more details.

How do I switch between harness and booster mode?

When your child reaches the height/weight limit for the harness mode, remove the harness and use the vehicle's seat belt to secure your child.

Is the headrest adjustable?

Yes, the headrest is adjustable and works in conjunction with the harness, ensuring a proper fit for your child.

What safety certifications does the Joie i-Bold™ have?

The Joie i-Bold™ is certified according to the ECE R129/03 safety standards.

Troubleshooting

Car seat seems wobbly after installation.

Double-check ISOFIX connectors are fully engaged, and the top tether is correctly attached and tightened. Ensure the seat is on a flat surface.

Harness straps are difficult to adjust.

Make sure there are no obstructions in the harness adjustment system. Check the strap release button and pull the harness straps while simultaneously adjusting the headrest height.

Seat belt doesn't fit correctly in booster mode.

Ensure the vehicle seat belt is routed through the correct guides. The lap belt should sit low on the hips, and the shoulder belt should cross the chest, not the neck.

Cover is stained and won't come clean.

Pre-treat stains with a mild detergent before washing. Consider spot cleaning with a specialized upholstery cleaner if necessary.
