Replace the Chicco Nextfit Car Seat Cover
If you want to replace the Chicco Nextfit car seat cover, follow these steps:
1. Open the car door and remove the child from the car seat.
2. Remove any straps or buckles holding the car seat in place.
3. Unfold the car seat cover so that it hangs over the sides of the carseat.
4. Pull down on one corner of the cover to detach it from the webbing that holds it in place.
5. Hang the cover over one of your arms so that it’s not blocking your view as you remove the child from the car seat onto the floor of your vehicle.
6. Replace any straps or buckles that were removed in step 2, then close up any open gaps in the cover by tucking it under itself and stitching into place where necessary (this is especially important on corners).
7. Re-attach any remaining straps or buckles, then re-insert your child into their new car seat cover.
Reattach the Straps
If your straps have come undone, follow these steps to reattach them:
1. Start with the front strap. Pull it through the hole on the back of the cover, and then pull it tight.
2. Repeat with the back strap. Make sure they’re both tight before moving on to the next step.
3. Loosen the straps on either side of the buckle by pulling one towards you and then pushing it away from the buckle to release it. Then do the same thing with the other side.
4. Position each strap over one of the buckle bumps and insert each end into its respective slot on the buckle (you may need to push them in a bit). You’ll now have two loops of strap hanging out of each side of the buckle. Pull evenly until they’re snug against each other and against your child’s body (make sure they’re not twisted!). Snap closed, and viola – your straps are reattached!
Replace the Safety Clip
If you’re looking to replace the safety clip on your Chicco Nextfit car seat cover, follow these simple steps:
1. Removed the existing clip by pulling gently on the fabric threads near the buckle end. The clip should come off easily.
2. Cut a new clip to size with a pair of scissors or a utility knife. Be sure to cut away from yourself so that the edges of the clip are smooth and even.
3. Put the new clip in place by threading one end through the hole at the buckle end and looping it around the fabric post near the back of the seat. Pull tight to secure.
