Product Information
Full details
The Joie Trillo is a reliable Group 2/3 high-backed booster seat designed for parents looking for a long-term safety solution for children from approximately 12 months to 12 years old. Its primary benefit is the comprehensive side impact protection that shields the child from head to hips, ensuring peace of mind during travel. While the seat offers excellent longevity and stable ISOSAFE connectivity, users should note that as a high-backed booster, it relies on the vehicle’s 3-point seat belt system for primary restraint, requiring careful routing to ensure the belt sits correctly on the child.

FAQs
Can this seat be used without ISOFIX?
Yes, the Trillo can be used in vehicles without ISOFIX points by using the 3-point seat belt alone, though ISOSAFE is recommended for extra stability.
At what age should I stop using the backrest?
The Joie Trillo is designed as a high-backed booster. It should be used with the backrest attached for the duration of its use to ensure continued side impact protection.
Are the covers machine washable?
Yes, the seat covers are removable and can be machine washed on a cold, delicate cycle. Air dry only to prevent shrinkage.
Is this seat suitable for newborns?
No, this is a Group 2/3 seat and is only suitable for children from approximately 12 months to 12 years of age.
What should I do if my vehicle doesn't have ISOFIX?
The seat is fully compatible with standard 3-point seat belts, so you can safely use it without ISOFIX anchors if your car is an older model.
Troubleshooting
Headrest is difficult to move
Ensure that the vehicle seat belt is not wrapped around the back of the headrest and that no debris is stuck in the adjustment track.
Seat wobbles after ISOFIX installation
Check that the ISOSAFE connectors are fully extended and locked into the vehicle's anchor points, and verify that the seat base is pressed flush against the vehicle seat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the Joie Trillo, extend the ISOSAFE connectors and click them firmly onto the vehicle's ISOFIX points until you hear an audible click. Once anchored, guide the vehicle’s 3-point seat belt through the shoulder belt guides located on the headrest, ensuring the belt crosses the child’s chest and hips correctly without twisting. For care, the fabric covers are removable and machine washable; always check the specific washing instructions on the tag to maintain flame retardant integrity. The plastic shell can be cleaned with mild soap and a damp cloth; avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
