Britax elite car seat

I have got one of these secondhand for a grandchild but the cover needs washing. Could someone explain how to take it off and clean it. I can’t find anything online. That pertains to this car seat and the user manual online is bewildering

Do you actually have the original Britax Elite? That's a really old seat and I'm not sure I'd want to use it - they haven't been sold since the 1990s. Car seat safety has moved on quite a bit since then (I doubt you'll find any info about washing the covers either!)

Do you mean the two way elite? That is still around in rear facing circles but you definitely need the manual for it as it can be a bit tricky to use.

Oh really? Oh dear. In that case I’ll forget it. I phoned Britax this morning and they said it was an old model but couldn’t say how old.

Yes, sorry. I'd get another one if you can. Graco have some good inexpensive seats if you're looking to buy new.
