6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Sytas office chair, refer to the following common problems and solutions.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Chair wobbles or feels unstable. | Loose screws or improper assembly. | Check all screws and bolts, especially those connecting the seat plate, backrest, and armrests. Tighten them securely. Ensure the gas lift is fully inserted into the base. |
| Seat height adjustment not working. | Gas lift not engaged or faulty. | Ensure the height adjustment lever is fully pulled. If the issue persists, the gas lift may need replacement. Contact customer support. |
