If the hand wheel
A
is not turned all the way to the stop, then it will return to
its initial position when the tow bar is removed and will rest on the tow bar and
not engage into the ready position. The ball head then needs to be brought in-
to this position before the next time it is fitted » page 184, Adjusting the ready
position.
The ball rod must be cleaned before storing in the box with the vehicle tool al-
ways.
WARNING
Never allow the tow bar to remain unsecured in the boot. This could cause
damage to the boot upon sudden braking, and could put the safety of the
occupants at risk.
Vertical load with mounted accessories
Read and observe on page 183 first.
When using the accessories (e.g. bicycle carrier), the maximum length and the
permissible total weight including load must be considered.
The maximum length of the mounted accessories (from the ball of the towing
device) may not exceed 70 cm.
The permissible total weight of the installed accessory, including its load, cor-
responds to the maximum trailer load on trailers, but must not exceed 50 kg.
This value applies if the center of gravity is at a distance of no more than 30
cm from the towing device ball head.
If the distance of the centre gravity of the load to the ball head of the tow-
ing device is greater than 30 cm, then the max. permissible total weight of
the accessory, including its load, decreases (e.g. at a distance of 60 cm
from the ball head, the permissible weight decreases by half).
CAUTION
Never exceed the permissible total weight of the accessories incl. load and
maximum length of the accessories – There is a risk of damage to the towing
device.
Note
We recommend that you use accessories from ŠKODA Original Accessories.
