When you return
After you return from your trip, you will have to take off your carrier, unfortunately.
This is also quite easy to do., Here's some help:
1. Release the cocoon by unwrapping the cord with press studs on strap 2. Release the
Velcro strip with your left hand, while holding your right hand on your baby's back.
2. Slide the straps away from your shoulders, while holding hand on your baby's back
(with new-borns support of the neck is important). Now lift your baby out of the carrier
with an upward movement (we recommend placing your both hands under the
armpits). Place your baby on a safe spot first. Your carrier will stay in place as you are
still wearing it.
3. After you have made sure your baby is safe, untie the knot under the cocoon and
place the outer ends of the straps in the foot pockets to prevent them from falling on
the ground.
4. Slide back the elastic safety band and remove the waistband by opening the buckle.
5. Roll or fold your carrier into a compact package - ready for your next adventure.
