Cleaning and maintanance

Under normal conditions and use, the bike carrier only requires
cleaning, and is otherwise maintenance free.
Clean the bicycle carrier regularly when used in coastal areas or
in winter conditions in order to wash off any salt and prolong the
service life of the bicycle carrier.
The bike carrier can be cleaned with a mild cleaning agent, with
warm water and/or a soft cloth. First remove any coarse dirt and
dust.
Do not use any solvents or similar cleaning agents, since these can
damage the bike carrier.
Leave the bike carrier to dry on its own. Do not use any electrical
driers or other heating equipment to speed up the drying process.
Clean the bike carrier regularly when used in coastal areas or in
winter conditions in order to wash off any salt and prolong the
service life of the bike carrier.
Store the bike carrier in a dry and protected area when not used for
extended periods (e.g. over winter) in order to prolong the service
life of the bike carrier.
Always slide the bicycle carrier back into the transport position so
no dirt or dust can remain in the sliding mechanism and limit a
smooth sliding. In case of fouling of the sliding mechanism, rinse it
with water.
Check the bike carrier for wear before the start of every journey.
Defective parts and straps must be replaced.
The steel parts of the bike carrier are protected in the works against
corrosion by a powder coating. If this paint coating is damaged,
please have the damage rectified professionally as soon as possible.
Please refer to our customer service for the replacement of parts.
Any modification of original parts and materials or the construction
of bike carrier can adversely affect its safety and serviceability.

Disposal

Due to its lighting system, the bicycle carrier is an
electrical device.
Do not dispose of electrical appliances in household
waste! Discarded electrical and electronic
equipment must be collected separately and
recycled in an environmentally sound manner.
Contact your municipal or city government on how
to dispose of old electronic equipment.
The materials are recyclable. You are making an
important contribution to protecting our
environment through recycling, material recycling
or other forms of re-utilising old appliances!
Dispose of the bicycle rack in accordance with the
laws and conditions in your country.
