Maxi-Cosi Pebble Group 0+ Car Seat (Jet Black)

Maxi-Cosi Pebble--The user-friendly, comfortable and safe infant carrier seat

The smooth, sleek design of the Maxi-Cosi Pebble offers you and your baby an exceptional sense of comfort, ease of use and safety. Every Maxi-Cosi car seat model--defined in the latest UN safety standard ECE R44.04--is specially designed for each age, as your child grows from birth to the age of 12. The Maxi-Cosi Pebble is a rear-facing Group 0+ infant carrier seat, suitable from 0 to 13 kg or birth to around 12 months.

Maxi-Cosi Pebble (Jet Black)

As of September 2006, the use of safety belts in cars and approved child safety devices is mandatory for all children under 12 years old or less than 1.35 metres/4'5" in height for transport by car in the front and back seat.

• It is always the weight not the age of a child that dictates the choice of car seat.
• A baby should be transported rear-facing for as long as possible as this position offers more support to the head and backbone.
• Do not buy or accept a second-hand car seat--you can never be certain of its full history and it may not provide adequate protection in an accident.

Why Choose the Maxi-Cosi Pebble?

Basic Features: The Maxi-Cosi Pebble is a lightweight rear-facing infant carrier seat weighing only 4.1 kg.

Right Protection: The seat's Side Protection System offers optimal protection against side impact in a collision.

Correct Seat Belt Installation: Anti-misuse belt routing prevents incorrect fitting of the Pebble with a car seat belt.

Carrying Handle: The Pebble's carrying handle allows you to adjust the seat to various positions--sitting/feeding, sleeping/rocking or carrying/car use. This convenient feature also allows you to easily take baby in and out of the car, without removal from the seat.

Harness: The Maxi-Cosi Pebble's innovative stay-open harness lets you place and secure your baby in the car seat within seconds.

Support Pillow and Head Pillow: The Pebble's removable support pillow for newborns adapts to the baby's lying position and provides newborns with more comfort and a better fit. The adjustable head pillow provides your baby's head with side support and can be adapted to the size of your baby's head. Neither pillow should be used beyond 4 to 5 months of age.

Sun Canopy: The easy-access integral sun canopy stores under the car seat's flexible rim.

Travel System: The Maxi-Cosi Pebble forms a practical travel system when used with any Maxi-Cosi or Quinny pushchair. Place the Maxi-Cosi Pebble rear-facing onto the pushchair chassis. 'Click' the Maxi-Cosi Pebble onto the adapters of the unfolded frame.

Car Seat Cover: The car seat cover is washable at 30C. It is advisable to buy an extra cover when purchasing the Pebble, so that you can continue using it even when the cover is being washed or dried.

Maxi-Cosi FamilyFix: If using the Maxi-Cosi with the Maxi-Cosi FamilyFix car seat base, you enjoy long-lasting value and convenience as only 1 base is needed for 2 consecutive age car seats--Maxi-Cosi Pebble (baby/0 to 13 kg) and Maxi-Cosi Pearl (toddler/9 to 18 kg). The Pebble offers a unique adjustable upward position for older babies when used with the FamilyFix.

Colour Range: The Pebble is available in a range of exciting stone and gem-inspired colours that match Maxi-Cosi and Quinny pushchairs.

Accessories: Accessories available (all sold separately) for the Maxi-Cosi Pebble include footmuffs, summer car seat covers, blankets, travel buddies, raincover and mosquito net.

The Maxi-Cosi Pebble is compatible for use with the Maxi-Cosi FamilyFix and EasyBase 2 car seat bases. Click here for a larger image

Installing the Maxi-Cosi Pebble

There are 3 ways to install the Maxi-Cosi Pebble in the car.

• First, the Pebble simply 'clicks' onto the Maxi-Cosi FamilyFix base (sold separately) that is attached using the vehicle's IsoFix* anchor points.
• Second, it simply clicks onto the Maxi-Cosi EasyBase 2 (sold separately), which is attached using the vehicle's regular 3-point seat belt.
• The Maxi-Cosi Pebble can also be secured without a car seat base using the vehicle's regular 3-point seat belt. The Pebble may only be installed in a rear-facing position and the carrying handle must be in an upright position. Anti-misuse belt routing prevents incorrect fitting with vehicle seat belt.
*IsoFix is an international standardised system to install child car seats and is fitted in most new cars. The system consists of two anchor points located between the backrest and seat of the rear or front passenger seat that are connected to the body of the car.



Secure the car seat harness--ensure you hear an audible 'click'

Infant car seats must be fitted rear-facing on a pushchair. Click the car seat onto the pushchair's adapters.

Leave no more than 1 finger/1 cm gap between harness and child

Maxi-Cosi Pebble and Your Baby--Safety Guidelines

Installation in a Car: The Maxi-Cosi Pebble may only be installed in a rear-facing position in the car. Make sure the fold-down rear seat is locked into position. It is very important a child does not go forward facing too early as in a 30 mph impact forces are increased by 25 times. A child forward facing too early, in an accident, can suffer crushed windpipe, separated spinal cord, or sudden death.

Airbags: Never use the Maxi-Cosi Pebble on a seat equipped with a front airbag, as this can result in death or injury of the baby--this does not apply to 'side' airbags.

Seat Belt: The car safety belt must be threaded along all blue markings--for proper installation instructions. See the illustrations in the PDF manual and/or the sticker on the side of the Maxi-Cosi Pebble.

Use of Harness: Always secure your baby with the harness belt, even when he/she is not in the car--the harness must be about ½ inch below shoulder level for rear-facing car seats. Ensure you clearly hear an audible 'click' when securing the harness. Make sure you can fit no more than 1 finger (1cm) between the harness belts and your baby.

Headrest: Only use the headrest of the Maxi-Cosi Pebble when the shoulder belts are in the lowest position.

Sun Exposure: Always cover the Maxi-Cosi Pebble when exposed to direct sunlight in the car to avoid the cover, metal and plastic parts from becoming too hot for your child's skin.

Installation on an Airplane: The Maxi-Cosi Pebble may only be secured using a 2-point safety belt when used on an airplane.



Next Stage Car Seats

The Maxi-Cosi Pebble is suitable for babies up to approximately 1 year of age. If the baby's head protrudes past the shell, it is necessary to move to the next stage car seat that offers adequate protection. Recommended next-stage car seats include...
• Group 0+/1: Maxi-Cosi Opal (suitable from 0 to 18 kg or birth to around 3.5 years)
• Group 1: Maxi-Cosi Pearl (FamilyFix), Maxi-Cosi Axiss, Maxi-Cosi Tobi, Maxi-Cosi PrioriFix, Maxi-Cosi Priori SPS and Maxi-Cosi Priori XP
