  • Always ensure the car seat is correctly installed and secured before placing your child in it.
  • The car seat offers maximum safety when used in the rear-facing position.
  • The integrated Linear Side-impact Protection (L.S.P. System) should always be extended on the side closest to the car door.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your CYBEX Gold Sirona Gi i-Size Plus Car Seat, please refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:

  • Installation Indicators Not Green: Ensure ISOFIX connectors are fully engaged and the load leg is firmly extended and locked. Re-adjust if necessary.
  • Difficulty Rotating Seat: Ensure the seat is in an upright position and not reclined. Check for any obstructions around the base.
  • Harness Too Tight/Loose: Adjust the harness length using the central adjuster strap. Ensure the headrest is at the correct height for your child, as this also adjusts the harness.
  • Unusual Noises: Check all connections and ensure the seat is securely installed. If noises persist, discontinue use and contact customer support.

For persistent issues or concerns not addressed here, please contact CYBEX customer support or your retailer for assistance.
