Maxi Cosi Cabrio hood - please HELP!

Hi there!

I have managed to remove the sun canopy/hood from our maxi cosi cabrio, and I think I may have removed it for EVER! No idea how to get it back on, no mention in the instructions! Please tell me there's a technique! Argh!

Any help much appreciated!

Pop into mothercare and get help - tbh I found it hard to get the hood out in the first place to start with, have never taken it off though. Sorry that's not much help. Good luck x

ours popped off- it was a complete bugger to fix back on and dont know how I did it tbh but i managed it!- you sort of need to pull the seat cover off a bit and pop the back off a bit so you can see the hooks and then try and hook in the hood loops into it- but it is bloody hard!

ah ha I may be able to help Grin
I took off the cabrio seat cover to wash (for the very first time) so that I could sell it on ebay and had to take off the canopy in order to get the covers off.
There is a silver coloured button under the rim of the canopy cover bit - you know where it tucks in. If you press that bit you can then pull out the plastic rim a bit more. Then down by the handle there are two sticky out bits and there is a very small loop at the end of the canopy that hooks onto the sticky out bit. Does that make sense?
