Installation Guide
Welcome to the Cybex Sirona S Installation Guide. This section provides clear instructions to ensure proper and safe installation of your car seat. Read carefully for optimal safety and correct use.
3.1. Step-by-Step Installation Process
Begin by ensuring your vehicle is compatible with the Cybex Sirona S. Unbox and prepare the seat, checking all components are intact. Place the base in your car, positioning it rear-facing for infants or forward-facing for older children. Locate the vehicle’s seatbelt or ISOFIX points and secure the base tightly, ensuring it is level. Attach the Sirona S seat to the base, clicking it firmly into place. Tighten the seatbelt or ISOFIX connectors to prevent movement. Finally, test the seat’s stability by gently shaking it. Always refer to your vehicle’s manual for specific installation requirements.
3.2. Securing the Base and Seat
To ensure a safe and stable installation, first secure the base using either the vehicle’s seatbelt or ISOFIX points. For seatbelt installation, thread the belt through the designated guides and tighten firmly. For ISOFIX, connect the base to the vehicle’s anchors and click into place. Once the base is secure, attach the Sirona S seat by aligning the connectors and ensuring it clicks firmly. Tighten the seatbelt or ISOFIX connectors to eliminate any movement. Always check the level indicator to confirm proper alignment. Finally, test the seat’s stability by gently rocking it back and forth to ensure it is tightly fastened.
Adjusting and Using the Sirona S
Adjust the Sirona S to fit your child perfectly, ensuring optimal comfort and safety. Modify the harness, headrest, and recline as needed for proper positioning. Always secure the seatbelt or ISOFIX connectors tightly and verify proper fit before each use. Regular checks ensure continued safety and comfort for your child.
4.1. Adjusting the Harness and Headrest
To ensure your child’s safety and comfort, adjust the harness and headrest according to their size. Loosen the harness straps, position your child, and tighten evenly. The headrest should align with your child’s ears for proper support. Use the height-adjustment feature to customize the fit as your child grows. Always check that the harness lies flat and snug, with no twisting. Ensure the chest clip is at armpit level and the straps are neither too loose nor too tight. Regularly verify the fit to accommodate growth and maintain safety.
4.2. Proper Use for Different Age Groups
The Cybex Sirona S accommodates children from birth to approximately 4 years. For newborns, use the included infant insert for a snug fit. As your child grows, remove the insert and adjust the harness and headrest to their height. Toddlers require a firmer fit without the insert, ensuring proper chest clip placement. Always refer to the weight and height limits in the manual. Transition to forward-facing once your child meets the minimum age and size requirements. Ensure the seat is correctly configured for each stage to maximize safety and comfort throughout their development.
Maintenance and Care
Regular cleaning and proper storage are essential for the longevity of your Cybex Sirona S. Avoid using harsh chemicals, and store the seat in a dry, cool place. Always inspect for wear and damage before use.
5.1. Cleaning Instructions
To maintain your Cybex Sirona S, clean it regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive materials, or soaking the seat. For tougher stains, mix mild soap with water, but ensure no moisture enters the padding or mechanism. Remove the cover and wash it according to the care label instructions. Harness pads and canopies can be wiped clean or hand-washed gently. Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembling. Never machine dry or bleach any components. Regular cleaning prevents stains and odors, ensuring a hygienic environment for your child while maintaining the seat’s functionality and appearance.
5.2. Storage and Longevity Tips
When storing the Cybex Sirona S, keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity. Store the seat upright to prevent deformation. Remove any removable parts, such as the cover and harness pads, and store them separately in a breathable bag. Regularly inspect the seat for wear and tear. Replace any damaged or worn-out components promptly. Proper storage and maintenance ensure the seat remains safe and functional for its intended lifespan, providing continued protection and comfort for your child.
