￿TO REMOVE AND WASH INFANT RESTRAINT PAD, follow instructions in “6.1 Positioning Harness Straps”, p. 27-30.

On 5-point harness models,

push aside the small tab that holds the anchor buckles in place  and pull the anchor buckles out of their indentations. Push a corner of each anchor buckle back into its slot .

Carefully remove the seat pad. Machine wash on delicate cycle and drip-dry. DO NOT USE BLEACH.





Reverse steps to reinstall seat pad. Check that harness system is not twisted, and pull on harness system to be sure harness is securely reinstalled.

￿INFANT RESTRAINT METAL AND PLASTIC PARTS may be cleaned by wiping with a mild soap and water solution. DO NOT USE BLEACH. Use of bleach may weaken plastic parts.

￿HARNESS STRAPS may be spot cleaned or replaced. DO NOT IMMERSE THE HARNESS STRAPS IN WATER. Doing so may weaken the harness straps.
