How to Remove the Graco Snugride Car Seat Base
If you need to remove the Graco Snugride car seat base for any reason, follow these simple steps:
1. Remove the infant insert. It’s located behind the head restraint and easy to get to by tugging on one side.
2. If your car has a folding feature, unfold it so that the base sits on the ground. If your car doesn’t have a fold-out feature, simply lift up on one corner of the base and pull it out from the car.

Tips on Removing a Car Seat Base
If you’re like most parents, you probably don’t want to have to remove your child’s car seat every time you want to move the seat. Here are a few tips on how to remove a Graco Snugride car seat base:
1. Locate the release buttons. The Snugride car seat base has two buttons located on either side of the base. To release the base, push down on one of these buttons and pull up on the other.
2. Carefully pull the base off of the car seat. Be sure to grip the sides of the base with both hands so that it doesn’t fall off while you’re pulling it off.
3. Unfasten all of the straps securing your child in the car seat. If there are any loose straps, tie them securely before removing the base from the car seat.
4. Store the base in a safe place until you’re ready to use it again.
