Lay the cables alongside the pipe of the rack table. The cables may not be kinked,
pulled or crushed, for example, in the folding mechanism area. Secure the cables
with cable ties. When you are nished, trim any excess material from the cable ties
using cutting pliers.

5.3 SECURING THE THIRD BICYCLE

The third bicycle is positioned in the third rail, counter to the second. With the
frame holders, wheel to wheel, connect the frame of the third bicycle to that of the
second. The wheels are again secured in the same way as for the rst bicycle. It may
be necessary to arrange the individual bicycles di erently on the rack to ensure that
the frame holders may be correctly secured. Now secure the bicycles with the long
safety strap. Wrap the safety strap through the bicycle frames and the U-shaped
bar and tighten.
The frame holder may cause slight pressure points and damage
to the paintwork of the bicycle frame.
The bicycle rack may not be used without this safety
strap.
The bicycles are removed in reverse order.

5.4 USING THE TENSION RELIEF STRAP

These instructions describe the use with estates and compact vehicles with a
hatchback (rear door). With boots (saloons) proceed appropriately.
Before mounting the tension-relief strap, remove dust and dirt from the upper
region of the rear door in order to prevent scratching and abrasion when travelling
with the tow-bar rack.
Open the rear door of your vehicle. Guide the free end of the strap from the inside
to the outside between the rear door and the edge of the roof. Leave approximately
20 cm free between the strap anchor and the edge of the roof. Carefully close the
rear door. Make sure that the strap lies at and straight between the seals. Now
slowly pull the strap until the strap anchor meets the panel of the roof liner and
the rear door.
Make sure that any roof edge spoilers are not damaged
and that the functionality of the tension-relief strap is
not in uenced by such spoilers.
Now attach the lock section of the strap to the U-bar as shown on Figures 14 to 17.
