One of the most popular Graco car seat models is the Extend 2 Fit. This model has a unique feature that allows you to extend the seat by 2 inches. This blog post will walk you through the steps needed to install this car seat, so that you can get started protecting your loved ones as soon as possible.
What is a Graco Car Seat Extend 2 Fit?
The Graco Car Seat Extend 2 is a car seat that can be extended to fit more than one child. It has a weight limit of 55 pounds, and can also be used as a booster seat. The car seat has an easy-to-use buckle system, and the straps are adjustable to fit most drivers and cars.
To install the Graco Car Seat Extend 2, first make sure that your car has an anchor hole in the bottom of the seat for use with a tether. Next, unzip the cover on the back of the car seat. This will allow you to install the shoulder belt and waist belt. Make sure that the shoulder belt is positioned over your shoulder and across your chest, then tighten it using the clicker. Snug up the bottom of the waist belt against your hips so that it’s tight but not too tight. Finally, snap close the cover on the back of the car seat.
How to install a Graco Car Seat Extend 2 Fit
Installing a Graco Car Seat Extend 2 Fit is simple. All you need are the appropriate tools and instructions.
1. Locate the car seat in your vehicle. It should be located near the rear of your vehicle on the floor, behind the passenger seat. The extend fit model should also have a strap that goes over the edge of your frontseat and secures to the front headrest.
2. If your car has a manual release button, press and hold it while peeling back the cover from the base of the car seat to release it from its anchor straps or connectors.
3. Remove all packaging materials (flaps, labels). On both sides of the car seat, locate two red lever clips that are vertically aligned near each end of the child restraint system (CRSS). Rotate these clips counterclockwise so they’re visible from above and remove them with a flat-head screwdriver (Figure A). Do not damage these clips! Place them aside for later use (Figure B).
4. Unbuckle both shoulder harnesses, if applicable, then remove them by unfolding them and pulling them out of their slots on either side of thecar seat (Figure C). Be sure to keep track of who’s harness goes where since you will reattach them later in this process (Figure D)!
5. Slide each shoulder harness over one arm of the child restraint system then pull snugly up
