1. Open the buckles on both sides of the car seat and pull it out of the vehicle.
2. Unbuckle the shoulder straps and fold them in half so that they are now shorter than the width of the car seat.
3. Position the car seat in front of the vehicle and line up the lower edge of one shoulder strap with an edge of the car door. Align the upper edge of that strap with another edge of door. Then close both buckle straps to secure car seat in position. Repeat for other side. (See photo)
4. If using a base for your carseat, align it with one end of either side rail, making sure that there is at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) between rail and base (see photo). Push down on base until it snaps into place; repeat on opposite side.(See photo)

How to Remove a Car Seat from a Vehicle

Removing a car seat from a vehicle can be a bit of an ordeal, but it’s not as difficult as you might think. Here are some tips on how to do it:

1. Locate the latch that secures the car seat in place. It will likely be on one of the side or rear of the carseat. Pry up on the locking clip until it pops outwards, then pull the car seat away from the vehicle.

2. You may also need to remove the base of the car seat if it has one. On many models, this is done by lifting up on two tabs located at either end of the base and pulling them outwards. If necessary, use a wrench or pliers to remove the bolt that holds it in place.

3. If your car seat has straps, make sure they’re unclipped before removal. Then, lift up on both ends of each strap and pull strips out of their holders. Finally, release all latches and screws that secure the straps to the car seat body or base.

How to Store a Car Seat

If you have a car seat that is a standard size, you can store it in the trunk of your car. If your car has an accessory rack, you can also store your car seat there. If your car doesn’t have an accessory rack, you can put the car seat on the passenger side floorboard or in the backseat.

You should make sure that your car seat is properly installed before storing it. Check to see if the straps are tight and if the padding is intact.
