Operating Instructions
Once installed, the Elite Duomat functions passively to protect your car's interior. Its primary role is to create a barrier between the car seat and your vehicle's upholstery, preventing indentations, scuffs, and spills. The integrated mesh pockets located at the front of the mat provide convenient storage for small items such as pacifiers, small toys, or snacks, keeping them accessible for your child during travel.
Maintenance
The Summer Infant Elite Duomat is designed for easy maintenance. In case of spills or soiling, simply wipe the mat clean with a damp cloth. The waterproof material prevents liquids from penetrating to your car's seat. Allow the mat to air dry completely before reinstalling the car seat.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with the fit or function of your Elite Duomat, please ensure it is correctly positioned according to the installation instructions. Verify that the non-skid backing is flat against the vehicle seat and that car seat anchors or belts are routed through the designated slots. If problems persist, contact Summer Infant customer support for assistance.
