The PortAbout 5 was last manufactured in 2005, making it very likely the seat has expired. Contact Evenflo (800-233-5921, www.evenflo.com) about the expiration date and reattaching the visor (if the seat has not expired). Please DO NOT use an expired seat! Manufacturer states that, when installing this rear facing only restraint in an outboard seating position, there should be at least 1.5" of space between the restraint, including the handle, and theback of the front seat.Do not remove the harness strap from the adjuster. If the harness is ever mistakenly removed, Evenflo will send a new harness with adjuster. -- Marc

Yes, you can out a newborn in a car seat without a base. The base does not affect the safety of the car seat. It is only a matter of convenience for you in getting the car seat in and out of the car. So it is not a problem.

The question was about replacement not cleaning, So "A" it is already moldy or "B" the dog ate it.

Grab a pair of pliers! With the pliers, pull the bottom tab out towards you and slide the top tab underneath. Once the top tab is under the bottom, the armrest will pop right off.

Push the harness anchors, harness straps, buckle tongues and chest clips back through to the front of the seat.

Enter the model number and date of manufacture. The parts list that is displayed will have an instruction manual which you can download for free.

I am looking for the back wheels can you help me please the model number is 1621854A.

If it is the one that is on the end of a strap, at the end of the strap is a loop.
Feed the loop thru a small set of holes in the back of the seat. The seat should have 2 small, close to eachother, holes. It goes in one, out the other and then slide the clip thru the loop and pull it back tight.
The only other design I know of uses a screw to attach the belt, the clip is on, to to a nub with a hole in
it on the back of the car seat.
If by "clip" you mean the little bracket that looks like an "H" you thread the car's seat belt thru it, where the belt goes up to the highest point, and use the H clip to keep that part of the car's seat belt away from the child and car seat by weaving it behind the edge of the car seat.
