• Before embarking on any journey, check that the strap is fastened correctly and firmly around the bicycles and
frame bracket of the rack.

and the strap around the rear wheel of the bicycle.
• If necessary, tighten the straps again.
• Before embarking on any journey, check to make sure the straps used are undamaged and not worn.
• Damaged or worn straps must be replaced with undamaged ones before you embark on your journey. Only straps

Parts protruding beyond the edge of the vehicle or rack may cause personal injury or property damage during the
journey.
• Only mount parts that do not protrude beyond the edge of the vehicle.
WARNING!
Personal injury or property damage caused by tarpaulins.
Tarpaulins increase air resistance. They can become loose and flap around, which can lead to serious accidents.
• Do not use tarpaulins.
WARNING!
Personal injury or property damage due to loss of the bicycle rack.
The rack only sits correctly on the coupling after it has been fastened, and a few kilometres have been travelled.
• Check the rack fastening to ensure it is sitting securely after a few kilometres.
• If the rack is loose, carry out the mounting process again. The quick-release fastener may need to be
readjusted. Read the relevant chapter of the bicycle rack operating instructions for more information. If the rack is
not fixed firmly, it cannot be used.

• Fold down the bicycle rack before opening the tailgate.
ATTENTION!
