4. Carefully move your child’scarseat away from the base and set it down somewhere safely out of reach of your pet or children. Be sure to check any straps that attach your child’scarseat tothe base for looseness or damage prior to removing it completely.
How the Graco car seat latches onto the base
If you have a Graco car seat that uses a base, there are a few steps you need to follow in order to take the seat off of the base. The first step is to make sure that the car seat is latched into place on the base. This can be done in two ways: using the safety belt and LATCH attachments or by using the clickers. If your car seat has LATCH attachments, make sure they are properly attached to the Base. Once your car seat is latched into place, use your hands to pull it away from the base. Next, use one hand to hold on to either side of the car seat and use your other hand to lift it off of the base. Finally, set the car seat down on a flat surface.
