General safety instructions
The vehicle owner is responsible for ensuring that his or her field of
view and hearing are not impaired by the load or the condition of
the vehicle. It must be ensured that the vehicle and load are in
accordance with regulations and that vehicle road safety is not
impaired by the load.
The required lighting and lighting systems must also be present
and operational during the day.
These mounting and operating instructions contain the general
approval of the towbar rack and must always be kept in the vehicle
when the rack is mounted.
Observe the legal regulations for use of the bicycle rack in
the country of use.
Attention
Please observe the work and safety instructions described in
these mounting and operating instructions at all times.
The towbar tack is intended only for transporting bicycles.
The bicycle rack is not suitable for use on rough terrain.
Always check all screw connections and fastenings of the
bicycle rack and the bicycles after every assembly, before
every trip and at intervals during lengthy trips to make sure they
are sitting firmly, and retighten them if necessary. Repeat this
check at regular intervals regardless of road conditions.
During the trip, the driver should check in the rear view mirror if
the bicycle rack and bicycles move or change position.
If you notice any changes, slow down and stop at the next
safe opportunity, and retighten the screw connections
and attachments of the bicycle rack and bicycles.
Otherwise, the bicycle rack may and the bicycles mounted
on it may come loose and injure other persons and/or cause
an accident.
Attention
Moving parts such as screw threads in the holders and quick-
release clamps must be regularly cleaned and greased so that
the twist grips do not seize up.
Do not use lubricants on the pre-mounted screw connections.
This could cause the screw connections to loosen and
the bicycle rack and the mounted bicycles to detach from
the vehicle, thus causing injury to you and other persons,
or resulting in an accident.
Attention
If the load (the bicycles) extends more than 16 inch (40 cm)
beyond the outer edge of the illuminated surface of the side-
marker lights or tail lights of the bicycle rack, the load must be
marked at no more than 16 inch (40 cm) from the edge and
59 inch (150 cm) above the road with a white light at the front
and a red light at the back.
Separately mark the bicycle wheels extending out laterally
during transport.
When driving at night, cover the rear lights and reflectors of
the bicycles to prevent confusion with the vehicle’s tail lights
and to avoid impairing or confusing other road users.
Failure to observe this may cause accidents.
Attention
Before starting a trip, check that the lighting system is
functioning correctly. When the rear fog light on the bicycle rack
is switched on, the rear fog light of the vehicle must be switched
off, i.e they must not be lit at the same time.
In vehicle models whose type approval was initially issued after
1 October 1998, neither the mounted rear rack system nor its
load may cover the vehicle’s third brake light. The vehicle’s
third brake light must be visible to the left and right, relative to
the vehicle’s longitudinal axis, at a horizontal angle of 10° rela-
tive to the top edge of the lamp, at a vertical angle of 10°, and
relative to the lower edge of the lamp, at a vertical angle of 5°.
If these values are not met, a “third” replacement brake light
must be installed.
Failure to observe this may cause accidents.
Attention
The mounted bicycle rack and bicycles alter the vehicle’s
driving and braking characteristics as well as its susceptibility
to side winds. Do not exceed a speed of 81 mph (130 km/h).
Do not cover the bicycles with tarpaulins, protective covers
or similar as this greatly affects the driving characteristics by
increasing the area exposed to the wind.
Move any heavy cargo in the luggage compartment as far
forward as possible to avoid excessively loading down
the rear of the vehicle.
Always drive appropriately to the road, traffic and weather
conditions and take special care when driving with a loaded
bicycle rack.
Otherwise, the rack and the bicycles mounted on it may be
come loose, thus injuring other persons or causing an accident.
Attention
If the vehicle has an electric luggage compartment lid, allow
for the necessary clearance when mounting the bicycle rack.
If possible, deactivate the electric luggage compartment lid
and operate it manually.
Remove the bicycle rack before using automatic car washes.
Otherwise, the bicycle rack, the vehicle and/or the car wash
could be damaged.
