Britax Römer Vario Base 5Z - Car seat base

1 BASE. 2 SEATS. 4 YEARS OF SAFETY.

With the VARIO BASE 5Z, you are ready for four years of convenient safety on the road. The modular base is compatible with the new BABY-SAFE PRO, the BABY-SAFE 3 i-SIZE, the BABY-SAFE CORE as well as the DUALFIX 5Z – and each of them can be installed on the base with just one click. The rotating feature allows you to turn each seat towards the car door, making it easy to place and harness your child. Additionally, the DUALFIX seat can be turned 360 degrees, allowing forward-facing travel when your child exceeds 15 months and 76 cm.

MODULAR COMFORT AND CONVENIENCE

The modular base fits the new BABY-SAFE PRO as well as the BABY-SAFE 3 i-SIZE and DUALFIX 5Z and accompanies your little one from the first ride home up until four years old. The seats can easily be removed and installed with just one click. The easily accessible release button allows you to effortlessly pick up the infant carrier on the handle. Plus, the adjustable rebound bar provides additional leg space when travelling rearward facing.

ALWAYS SET FOR COSINESS

In cars with inclined vehicle seats, your child's head might tip forward when harnessed in the seat. That's why the VARIO BASE 5Z can be adjusted to six different positions to provide the best combination of safety and comfort for your little one. With the infant carriers it's best set the correct angle before installing the seat and with the DUALFIX 5Z you can adjust the angle on the go to a more comfortable position when your toddler falls asleep.

TURN TO EASY ACCESS – THE ROTATABLE BASE

All compatible seats for the VARIO BASE 5Z can be turned towards the open car door so you can place and harness your child with ease. Whilst we recommend keeping your child rearward facing for as long as possible, you can easily rotate the base 180 degrees for your DUALFIX 5Z for forward travel once your child exceeds 15 months and 76 cm.

MODULAR BASE SYSTEM

The modular VARIO BASE 5Z is compatible with the new BABY-SAFE PRO, the BABY-SAFE 3 i-SIZE, the BABY-SAFE CORE and the DUALFIX 5Z.

EASY ACCESS

The rotating feature of the base allows you to turn the seat to the car door, allowing you to easily place your child in and out of the seat.

PLENTY OF SPACE FOR LITTLE LEGS

Give your child added protection in an accident: the rebound bar of the VARIO BASE 5Z helps prevent the car seat from tilting in a collision. The bar has been optimised so it's shorter and more compact to offer extra leg space - perfect for a long journey - and makes carrying and storage simple.

ADJUSTABLE ANGLE OPTIMISATION

In cars with inclined vehicle seats, there may be a risk of your child's head tipping forward especially when they fall asleep in a car seat. With our VARIO BASE 5Z you can easily adjust the angle of the car seat to six different positions, to provide a more ergonomic yet safe position of your child during any journey and in any car.

INSTALLED CORRECTLY EVERY TIME

Thanks to the audible click, you can be sure that the BABY-SAFE PRO is installed correctly every time. Additionally, a visual indicator on the release button of the base offers extra peace of mind.

HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE SUPPORT LEG

Install the VARIO BASE 5Z safely in your car using the adjustable support leg. The leg fixes to your car's floor to provide extra stability and minimise tilting movements of the car seat. And an easy-to-read indicator shows you when the support leg is positioned firmly on your vehicle’s floor, making it effortless to fit correctly.

INDEPENDENT ISOFIX CONNECTORS

Install the VARIO BASE 5Z effortlessly thanks to the ISOFIX connectors, which can be operated independently. You're fully in control, so they're fast and safe to connect without damaging your car's seats. And you're ready to get on with your day.

EASY STORAGE

We know that parents of young children have lots of baby items to store so we have designed the infant carrier base with convenient storage in mind. The support leg folds up so you can easily pack it away in your car’s boot or at home. By folding the leg under the seat this also deactivates the security beep from the support leg to provide a peaceful storage solution.
