in order to ensure the best possible protection and comfort for your child at all times,
there are two methods of using the seat, depending on the weight of the child.
Rearward-facing use (0-18 kg)
we recommend that you use CyBex sirona facing rearwards, counter to the
direction of travel until your child has reached a weight of approx. 18 kg. this is
required by law for children weighing up to 9 kg and even when your child is older,
he or she is safest when seated facing rearwards to the direction of travel.
For this configuration the child is secured with the 5-point belt system. For further
details please see the section: "rearward-FaCing use (0 kg to 18 kg)"
NOte! newborns and infants who are not yet able to sit up by themselves (up to
around 1 year), should for orthopedic and safety reasons always be transported in
the flatest recline position rearward facing.
NOte! store the safety cushion in a dry, secure place and keep it handy until you are
ready to use the seat in a forward-facing position.
NOte! the child should be clear of any moving parts while making adjustments with
the seat. keep children away from the seat, during the installation and deinstallation
in the car. there is a risk that fingers can become trapped and scissoring actions are
unavoidable.
!
Warning! never use CyBex sirona on a seat, where the airbag is
activated. this does not include airbags in side locations.
Warning! when the seat is used in the rearward-facing position, the child
must never be secured with the safety cushion! For further information, see
the section, "Forward-FaCing use (9 kg to 18 kg)".
