Cleaning and Care
The bicycle carrier can be cleaned with a mild detergent, warm
water, and/or a soft cloth.
Remove coarse dirt and dust in advance. Do not use solvents or
similar cleaners, as these could damage the bicycle carrier.
Allow the bicycle carrier to dry by itself. Do not use a hairdryer or other
heated appliances to speed up the drying process. Clean the bicycle
carrier regularly in coastal areas and in the case of use in winter con-
ditions, to rinse off salt and prolong the life of the bicycle carrier.
In prolonged periods without use (e.g. over winter), store the bicycle
carrier in a place that is dry and protected, to prolong its life.
Maintenance
Before each trip, check the bicycle carrier for wear.
Defective metal parts and tightening straps in particular must be
replaced.
Please refer to our customer service for the replacement of parts.
Any modification of original parts and materials or the construction
of bicycle carrier can adversely affect its safety and serviceability.
The steel parts of the bicycle carrier are protected at the factory
against corrosion using a powder coating. If this paint coating is
damaged, please have the damage repaired professionally as soon
as possible.
Under normal conditions, the bicycle carrier only requires cleaning
and is otherwise maintenancefree.
