CARRY-BIKE
EN
Read the following instructions and warnings carefully; failure to observe these installation and usage
instructions as well as the laws for driving in the relevant country may cause severe harm or damage for which
the manufacturer declines all responsibility. Before installation, ensure compatibility with the vehicle on which the
product must be installed.
Checking that the wall/rear door is suffi ciently solid and suitable for guaranteeing the resistance of the anchoring
points is always mandatory. If not, strength and compliance with the maximum load indicated in the instructions
are not guaranteed and it will be necessary to reinforce these points.
After having positioned the Carry-Bike on the rear axle of the vehicle, the normal weight distribution on both
axles would be modifi ed. This variation must not exceed the maximum permissible axle load.
Never exceed the maximum permitted length and the total weight of the full-load vehicle.
Make sure that loading occurs following a correct weight distribution; it must be uniformly distributed (the
heaviest bike must be placed near the wall of the vehicle) to ensure better stability.
Always give warnings about the presence of the Carry-Bike on your vehicle, using a clearly signal for leaning
loads and, in case of limited rear visibiliy, use the additional rear-view mirrors.
Take into account the presence of the Carry-Bike, paying attention during driving and expecially during reversing
manoeuvres, particularly if you have parking assist system.
Always comply with speed limits and the Highway Code.
The speed should always be suitable to traffi c conditions and towed load.
In case of use of the bike carrier with tow make sure that the tow hook is always accessible and the corner
mobility of the tow is guaranteed (volume measuring din 74058).
Check periodically the bicycle rack to make sure it is fi rmly attached, especially during the fi rst kilometers of after
long trips to avoid damages of the Carry-Bike/vehicle. Make sure the belts are not loose and that the holding
brackets have not shifted. Replace worn components immediately.
Make sure that the support brackets are located where they cannot move or shift sideways.
They also must not touch the roof of the vehicle, the hinges and the corresponding bolts or screws.
While assembling, pay attention not to close the rear door if screws and brackets of the Carry-Bike are not
tightened.
Make sure that, during roar door opening, the Carry-Bike and/or the Bike-Block do not touch the roof of the
vehicle (raised roof) and/or its opening systems (pop-up roofs).
During Carry-Bike installation, verify that there is enough distance between handlebars and/or pedals and the
vehicle's rear windows in order to avoid any damages of the window van; do not leave accessories attached
(bay seats, baskets, etc) because vibrations could disengage bikes.
In some cases, the rear windscreen wiper may not work due to the presence of bicycles. Be aware of the brush
radius before operating the windscreen wiper.
On this type of Carry-Bike, bike covers are not allowed (Bike Cover).
