Hi everyone!

I have the Graco Nautilus (link below), and my son spilled juice down the front of him this morning.  I know how to take the covers off and clean them, but he got juice down in the buckle, where the two prongs go into the crotch part, kwim? How do I clean inside there, I noticed when we got home and I brought it inside, that it no longer *clicks* when it goes in, but it does stay secured when I pulled on it.

What on earth do I do to clean it? I am thinking I may have to call the manufacturer for a new piece, do you think I have to do that?

Thanks for all your help!

I don't have a Nautilus, but hopefully there would be a section in the manual dealing with how to clean the pieces appropriately.

I know with the seats I'm currently using, you can take the crotch strap out and run warm water down inside the female part of the buckle, and that is how that part is cleaned. You have to be careful not to soak the webbing of the strap part though. If your manual doesn't address it, call customer service and ask them to be sure.
