Whatever answer you give it should be the same as to the question “How do S-Risk scenarios impact the decision to wear a seat belt when in a car” since both actions increase your expected lifespan and so, if you believe that S-Risks are a threat, increase your exposure to them. If there are a huge number of “yous” in the multiverse some of them are going to be subject to S-risks, and if cryonics causes this you to survive for a very long time in a situation where you are not subject to S-risks it will reduce the fraction of yous in the multiverse subject to S-risks.

This only seems to apply if you have a constant probability for S-risk scenarios. If you think they’re more likely in the far future, then the calculation should be quite different.
