Continuous use of child restraint may cause damage to vehicle seat. Use a child restraint mat, towel or thin blanket to protect upholstery.
Metal and plastic parts: clean with mild soap and cool water. No bleach or detergents.
Harness straps and LATCH straps: spot clean with damp sponge. Do not immerse the straps in water. Doing so may weaken the straps.
Buckle should fasten with a “click”, if not, rinse buckle with warm water. DO NOT USE SOAPS or LUBRICANTS. DO NOT use household detergents. Never lubricate buckle.
If buckle or harness adjuster sticks or will not remain tight, check for foreign objects such as food, dirt, etc. Remove objects with tweezers and/or clean with a cotton swab. If you cannot get the harness to remain tight with the buckle securely locked, do not use this child restraint.
