Stupid question but how do you fold a Radian?

I have a 65 SL and we're going to be taking it on our trip (flight and rental car) in November. I'd like to be able to fold it if needed, although my 2 1/2 year old does have her own seat and I'd prefer to install it on the plane.

I sat there for 10 minutes in the garage trying to figure out how it folds, feeling really dumb.:eek:

Loosen the straps. I've found all the way not usually necessary, but a good amount. Flip it over and find the red levers on the bottom. Pull them both at once, and the hinge will unlock. Then lay it on its back and shove the bottom up really hard; sometimes I have to kneel on it. Pull out the red velcro strap, loop it through the bar above the adjuster, and jerk on it while pushing on the bottom of the seat until you can get it closed and velcroed to your satisfaction.

Don't worry, you're not dumb! I had to pull out my dang manual to figure it out. All I knew was the red flappy thing behind the cover had something to do with it. :p
