INTRODUCTION (Continued)

The Infant Carrier and base is installed so that the infant is facing rearwards. This provides the best position

in a crash for infants. However, no child restraint can guarantee absolute protection from injury in every crash,

so to ensure that your child gets all the protection designed into this restraint.

Carefully read all the instructions for installation in this book. If in doubt about the method of installation,

consult Cybex or agent or a child restraint fitter or, in New Zealand, to consult the agent for the vehicle.

The Cloud Q is suitable for fitting to a variety of Cybex Strollers using one of the adaptor systems.

For compatible Strollers like CYBEX Priam and M-Strollers, refer to www.cybex.com. Works perfect

together with CYBEX Priam and M-Strollers.

Welcome to the CYBEX family

Thank you for purchasing the CYBEX Cloud Q. We are proud to bring this German engineered product to

Australia. We hope the Cloud Q will make your child’s travel both safer and more pleasant as well as make

installation and use for you as simple as possible.The award winning Cloud Q brings a few important safety

innovations to the infant car seat category.

INTRODUCTION (Continued)

CYBEX Linear Side-impact Protection (LSP) System: A unique telescoping blocker arm, combined with

deep side wings lined with thick energy-absorbing EPS foam and an adjustable headrest creates the CYBEX

LSP System. This system has been optimized to protect and greatly reduce any forces on your baby in the

event of a side impact crash. (See Page 27)

Full Recline Backrest: A new function of the Cloud Q is that it can be changed to a full recline position when

used outside of the car. With an extended leg-rest and a fully reclining backrest, the child can lie comfortably

and in an ergonomically correct position when used as a travel system or in the home. (See Page 20)

IMPORTANT

CHILD HEIGHT RELATIVE TO HEIGHT MARKERS

HEIGHT MARKERS

DO NOT MOVE TO THE NEXT RESTRAINT UNTIL SHOULDERS

REACHES THE SHOULDER HEIGHT MARKER

The Infant Carrier is not suitable for your child when their shoulders are above

the shoulder height marker.

If the babies neck muscles are unable to support their head then the child

should remain rear facing, choose a child restraint that will take larger babies

in rear facing.

When babies shoulders are in-line with the Shoulder Height Marker - then

you will need to move to the next child restraint (See page 8).

Shoulder height markers are provided on this restraint for a visual indication

that the child is safe to ride in this restraint.

SHOULDERS MUST BE

BELOW THIS LINE

NEXT STAGE OF RESTRAINT TO BE USED

When your child has outgrown the seat, you can then use one of the following restraints:

1 - Convertible Child Seat

If the convertible seat is suitable for approximately 12 months then continue to

keep your child rear facing until their shoulders reach the lowest marker. Then turn

to forward facing until the child reaches the top marker - approximately 4 years of

age. Some convertible child seats may allow option for the child to remain rearward

facing until 2 to 3 years of age.

2 - Dedicated forward facing seat

3 - Convertible booster seat

With built-in harness - for children who have outgrown their infant carrier

approximately 6 months, up to approximately 4 years of age, or 8 years of age

depending on the restraint.

With built-in harness that faces forward - for children who have out grown their

rear facing seat approximately 6 months. This can be used up to approximately

4 years of age with built-in harness and then be converted to a booster seat and

used up to approximately 8 years of age.
