Thank you for deciding on the CLOUD T i-Size when choosing your car seat. Carefully read this User guide before installing the car seat in your vehicle and always keep it to hand in the designated compartment (34).

IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND WARNINGS

• Without the approval of the Type Approval Authority, the car seat may not be modified or added to in any way.
• To keep your child properly protected, you must use the car seat as described in this User guide.
• This car seat may only be installed on vehicle seats that are approved for the use of child restraint systems according to the vehicle manual.
• The car seat can either be attached with the Base T/Base Z2 and ISOFIX, or with a 3-point automatic belt that is approved according to UN regulation No. 16 or an equivalent standard.
• If the car seat is installed using a 3-point automatic belt, the vehicle belt buckle must never reach the lap belt guide of the car seat. If the belt whip is too long, the car seat is not suitable for use in this position in the vehicle.
• The installation of this car seat on the front passenger seat with the front airbag activated is NOT PERMITTED.
• Do not use any load-bearing contact points other than those described in the User Guide and marked on the child restraint.
• The Newborn inlay is used to protect your child and must be used up until they have reached a height of 60 cm.
• Before each journey make sure that the car seat harness system is correctly adjusted and fits tightly to the child’s body. The belts must never be twisted!
• Always buckle up your child when it is in the car seat.
• Only an optimally adjusted headrest can offer your child maximum protection and comfort while ensuring that the belt system can be fitted appropriately.
• The car seat must always be correctly installed and secured in the vehicle even when not in use.
• If the car seat is used with the Base T/Base Z2 the load leg must always make direct contact with the floor of the vehicle. If your vehicle has storage compartments in the footwell, be sure to contact the vehicle manufacturer.
• While driving, the car seat must always be locked in the rear-facing position.
• For the car seat to provide the best possible protection, always use linear side-impact protection (L.S.P.).
• If using the car seat on the middle seat of the vehicle, the linear side-impact protection (L.S.P.) must never be folded out.
• The car seat has also been tested and approved for use without the linear side-impact protection (L.S.P.) folded out.
• Always ensure that the car seat is not jammed against any surface when closing the vehicle door or adjusting the back seat.
• Luggage or any other objects present in the vehicle must always be firmly secured. Otherwise, they may be thrown within the vehicle, which could cause fatal injuries.
• The car seat must never be used without the seat cover. Ensure that only an original CYBEX seat cover is used, as the cover is a key element allowing the seat to function correctly.
• Never leave your child unattended in the vehicle.
• It is allowed to use the intermediate lie-flat position in the car if the seat is used with Base T/Base Z2. If the car seat is installed using a 3-point automatic belt, it has to be in the most upright position.
• The full lie-flat position may only be used outside the vehicle.
• Do not place the car seats on raised surfaces, such as a table.
• Parts of this child restraint system can heat up when exposed to direct sunlight and could potentially burn your child’s skin. Protect your child and the car seat from direct sun exposure.
• An accident may cause damage to the car seat that is not identifiable to the naked eye. Please replace the car seat after an accident. In case of doubt, please consult your dealer or the manufacturer.
• Do not use this car seat for more than 8 years. The car seat is exposed to high stress during its product lifespan, which leads to changes in the quality of its materials with increasing age.
• The plastic parts can be cleaned with a mild cleaning agent and warm water. Never use harsh cleaning agents or bleaches!
• On some vehicle seats made of sensitive materials, the use of car seats may leave marks and/or cause discolouration. To prevent this, you can place a blanket, towel or similar underneath the car seat to protect the vehicle seat.
