BEFORE INSTALLATION, PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY.
If you are installing dark colored Seat Savers, READ and FOLLOW the special washing instructions noted below. You must "set" the
color into the fabric or there is a possibility that dye will transfer to the upholstery.
Thoroughly inspect each of your Seat Savers before installation to determine if any or all of the following special features apply to
your specific style seat. Some of the information presented in this instruction sheet may or may not apply to your specific installa-
tion. Please be sure to use the applicable information for your installation.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
If your vehicle is equipped with brackets on the outboard side of
the backrest, check the covers to determine if any opening has
been provided for them. If not, they must be removed before
installation of the Seat Savers. If your covers have a belt loop
sewn at the bottom, make sure it slips over the backrest while
completing "Step 1".
Step 1: Slip the Seat Saver over the backrest, watching for any
or all of the special points mentioned above.
Step 2: Pull the cover down snugly over the entire back until the
top and sides fit the contour of the backrest.
Step 3: Lean the backrest forward and pull the bottom of the
Seat Saver forward to stretch the elastic over the bottom cush-
ion. Be aware of any of the special points mentioned above.
Step 4: If so equipped, slip the two elastic straps sewn onto the
underside of the bottom cushion cover through the crevice be-
tween the seatback and the bottom cushion...OR, if so equipped,
insert the flap with the hook & loop attachments through the
crevice. Mate the elastic straps or the flap with hook & loop
strips to the hook & loop on the bottom and/or rear edge of the
bottom cushion part of the cover. Return seatback to upright
position.
Step 5: If your seat covers have the cloth type belt with hook &
loop attachments, slip the belt around and under the bottom
cushion and secure the hook & loop together.
Step 6: Make sure any cutouts in the Seat Savers have been
aligned properly. Make sure any hook & loop or side release
buckle attachments are securely fastened.
Step 7: With the backrest again tilted forward, gently press the
Seat Saver into the crevice between the backrest and bottom
cushion. Return seatback to upright position.
Through normal use, in a short time, your covers will settle and
conform to the seat's contour.

SPECIAL WASHING INSTRUCTIONS FOR
Before you "set" the fabric color please test-fit the Seat Savers
and be sure you are satisfied with the fit. You must follow
these special washing instructions before leaving dark col-
ored Seat Savers installed for any length of time.
We DO NOT recommend installation of dark colored Seat Sav-
ers on light colored seats. As noted above, it is necessary to
"set" the fabric color on dark colored Seat Savers before instal-
lation.
In any convenient location, put enough COLD WATER to soak
each Seat Saver. Dissolve one tablespoon salt, per Seat Saver,
into the water. Allow Seat Savers to soak in the cold water for
at least 30 minutes. After soaking, wash in a conventional type
home washing machine. Use only cold water on a gentle cycle
setting. Dry the covers using an "air" or "low heat" setting on a
standard style tumble dryer. They may also be line dried, weather
conditions and temperature permitting.
