Cybex 2.GO - Manual (Page 13)

GENERaL INFoRMaTIoN
I. Spread-squat position: By opening and closing the lower zipper, the seat width can be adjusted. Very small
children will already sit comfortably in the required “spread-squat position” without any adjustments to the
seat area. for older children, the seat area can be adjusted by opening the zipper over the entire length.
Children from approx. 10 months of age should sit in the narrowest position, thus allowing for more leg room
and freedom of movement.

II. Height adjustment: the waist belt has the function of a height adjustment system. (a) to carry smaller
children, the belt should be placed around the waist, allowing the child to sit at a higher position. (b) for larger
children the belt should be placed around the hips. the optimum sitting position is reached when the carrying
person can touch the child´s head with the lips and should be adjusted accordingly.
III. Connector belt: (a) for ease of use, the connector belt on the shoulder straps can be adjusted in both length
and height, (b) allowing it to be closed from behind the neck or behind the back.
IV. Width adjustment: tighten the shoulder straps to the point that it is comfortable for yourself and your baby.
the adjustment of the width will also regulate the support of your child’s back. Excess length from the straps
can be folded and placed in the loops provided on the shoulder straps.

V. The bib: the bib can be removed and regularly washed. Please follow the washing instructions.
The Headrest can be used in 3 different ways
VI. Full support: You can adjust the width of the head support with the upper zipper. with the zipper all
the way closed, you will support your baby´s head in the sleeping position. The space of the headrest
can be individually adjusted to ensure a comfortable position for the baby. See picture ii b.
VII. Headrest shortened: Should your child´s head no longer need supporting, the head rest can simply
be folded outwards. This position also allows the vision field of your child to expand.
VIII. Inwards Mobility Seat: (a) once your baby is approx. 6 months of age, the headrest can be
completely folded inward, so that the back is completely free and your child has more moving space.
(b) Unfasten the buckles for the head rest and fold it inwards.
