How to: Fix squeaking issues with your CORSAIR Gaming Chair

If you are noticing that your CORSAIR gaming chair is squeaking or creating a weird creaking sound, please follow these steps to resolve it:

1. Identify the source: Start by pinpointing the exact location of the squeaking sound. Sit on the chair and try to determine whether it's coming from the seat, backrest, armrests, or any other specific part.

2. Check the connections: Inspect all the connections and fasteners on your chair. Look for loose screws, bolts, or nuts that may be causing the squeaking. Use the provided Allen Wrench or Screw driver to tighten them securely.

3. Lubricate moving parts: Apply a lubricant to any moving parts of the chair, such as the swivel mechanism, gas lift, or tilt mechanism. Silicone-based lubricants or spray lubricants work well for this purpose. Be sure to follow the product instructions for safe and effective use.

4. Clean the chair: Dust, debris, or accumulated dirt can contribute to squeaking. Thoroughly clean the chair using a soft cloth or brush. Pay extra attention to the areas around joints and hinges. If there are any spills or stains, use a mild soap or upholstery cleaner and a damp cloth to clean them.

5. Adjust the chair's components: Try adjusting the different components of the chair to see if it reduces the squeaking. Experiment with the height adjustment lever, tilt mechanism, or armrest positions. Sometimes, the squeaking can be caused by misalignment or improper installation.
