Preparing to Clean Your Car Seat<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Keeping your car seat clean is essential for maintaining a safe and comfortable environment for your child. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend using soft towels and a sponge for wet spot cleaning. Make sure to use a gentle soap without any harsh chemicals or fragrances that could be dangerous for sensitive babies. Start by wiping off all the solid debris and other nasty messes that need to be picked away before continuing on the cover and harness. For any wet spots or spills, use a sponge dipped in a mixture of warm water and soap. <span data-contrast=\"auto\"><strong>Important to note: <\/strong>avoid soaps with harsh chemicals and any products containing solvent because it can have a negative impact on the plastic material and thereof the safety of the seat. Be attentive when you choose your cleaning products<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Step 2. Remove the car seat cover<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>All of our car seats are unique, and therefore the design of the upholstery is also different. Velcro, elastic and zips are conveniently and discreetly integrated into the textiles so that you can easily put them on and remove them on your own. The upholstery of the car seat is soft and comfortable, while at the same time it resists light wear and tear such as dust, stains, and dry dirt and the car seat can easily be washed in a normal washing machine at 30\u00b0C <span data-contrast=\"auto\">&#8211; do not tumble dry<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"368\" height=\"246\" src=\"https:\/\/axkid.com\/hu\/app\/uploads\/Skarmklipp.jpg\" alt=\"Wash your car seat fabric.\" class=\"wp-image-4871\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"368\" height=\"247\" src=\"https:\/\/axkid.com\/hu\/app\/uploads\/Skarmklipp2.jpg\" alt=\"Wash the fabric of car seat Axkid ONE 2.\" class=\"wp-image-4872\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"368\" height=\"245\" src=\"https:\/\/axkid.com\/hu\/app\/uploads\/Skarmklipp3.jpg\" alt=\"sk\u00e4rmklipp3\" class=\"wp-image-4873\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"369\" height=\"248\" src=\"https:\/\/axkid.com\/hu\/app\/uploads\/Skarmklipp4.jpg\" alt=\"Machine washing car seat Axkid ONE 2.\" class=\"wp-image-4874\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">To get full instructions of how to remove the cover you can click on the link below that easily demonstrates how to remove your&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/VfDVWZ9FK4o\">Axkid&nbsp;Minikid<\/a>&nbsp;cover. Be careful when you remove the padding around the adjustment strap lock. It can easily be damaged if it clicks out<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"> <strong>Step 3. Clean the cover and harness<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">When the fabric cover is removed you toss it in the washing machine. Apart from the fabric cover, it is important to clean the harness and the buckle. The harness can be cleaned but not in a washing machine, it can harm the tensile strength of the textile webbing and therefore make it unsafe. What you could do is to wash it by hand with a soft towel and unscented soap. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Step 4. Reassemble the seat<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">When everything is cleaned, dried and aired out it is time to reassemble the seat.<\/span> <span data-contrast=\"auto\">Make sure all the snaps, loops&nbsp;etc.&nbsp;are attached on the cover as well as the loose pieces you took out when the seat cover was in the wash. <\/span>If <span data-contrast=\"auto\">you have any questions regarding the&nbsp;reinstalment&nbsp;of the car seat, you can always refer to your manual or <a href=\"https:\/\/axkid.com\/hu\/contact\/\">contact us<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Do you feel that the car seat tends to get dirty quickly?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p> We recommend buying an extra Car seat cover, it\u00b4s even easier to put on and remove than the original cover before washing, but it is also made of breathable material to avoid becoming too hot in the summer.
