• CONTINUOUS USE OF CAR SEAT MAY CAUSE
DAMAGE TO VEHICLE SEAT. Use a car seat 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 or replace. Do not immerse the straps in water.
Doing so may weaken the straps.

a damp cloth.
• NEVER LUBRICATE THE BUCKLE. If buckle or

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 car
seat. Call Graco at 1-888-224-6549 to purchase a
replacement harness or buckle.

mild soap and cool water. If necessary, cover may
