- The Carry-Bike Caravan Universal is a bicycle carrier for caravan that carries 2 bicycles, which should not
exceed the total weight of 35 kg.
- Fasten the Carry-Bike to the rear bearing structure of the vehicle.
- Because it is overhanging structure posteriorly installed, this overhang must be regulated according to
the regulations in force. After setting of Carry-Bike on rear axis of the vehicle, normal weight's distribution
on two axis could be modifi ed; be sure that it doesn't exceed the maximum permissible load (verify the
data on your own logbook).
All-up weight of the vehicle has to be always verifi ed in proper equipped area.
- We recommend that the area where the bicycle rack will be mounted be cleaned before installation.
- To avoid excess abrasions on the vehicle's paint, before use check all points that may risk being rubbed
when the door is opened (they could be caused by the vehicle's construction tolerances).
- Make sure that the luggage compartment is always closed.
- 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.
- Periodically check the bicycle rack to make sure it is fi rmly attached, especially after the fi rst 10 km.
Make sure the belts are not loose and that the holding brackets have not shifted.
- Make sure that fastening is secure: during each trip, stop and check that the bicycles are securely
fastened after the fi rst short run.
- DO NOT COVER THE NUMBER PLATE OR LIGHTS. Repeat lights and plate in case Carry-Bike covers
them, even partially.
- Do not hide Carry-Bike with covers. Detachable parts like child safety seats, bags or air compressor have
to be uncoupled and put away inside the vehicle. Bicycles have to be fi xed both with two Quick-Safe
(one piece per wheel) and Security Strip (Bike-Block) on the frame. Both Quick-Safe and Security Strip
have to be periodically controlled. In case of damage, they have to be immediately replaced. While fi xing
the bikes, verify that there is enough distance between handlebars and/or pedals and vehicle's wall, to
avoid to compromise the painting.
- In the case of a long period of disuse, we suggest that you unhook the bike carrier.
- The load must be evenly distributed and must not exceed the maximum width of the vehicle.
- Be careful when driving and beware of gusts of wind. Also keep in mind that you need a longer braking
distance. Pay attention to dangerous road crossing and garage's entrance. Addition rearview mirrors are
required in case of reduced visibility.
- In some cases, the bicycle rack interferes with using the rear windscreen wiper. Carefully examine the
brush radius before turning on the rear wiper.
- 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).
- FIAMMA is not liable for damages arising from non-observance of the laws in force, the installation,
carriage and maintenance instructions or from incorrect use of the bike carrier.
