Attaching and removing bicycles
Attention
The towbar rack is only intended for transporting bicycles.
None of the bicycles carried on the rack may weigh more than
66 lb (30 kg).
The maximum load capacity of the bicycle rack, the maximum
towbar load, the gross vehicle weight rating and the gross axle
weight rating (see vehicle owner's manual) may not be
exceeded.
Otherwise, the rack and the bicycles mounted on it may come
loose, injuring other persons or causing an accident.
Attention
The bicycles must be fastened evenly and with a low centre of
gravity on the bicycle rack. Each must be secured against
falling off using a holder on the bicycle frame and lashing straps
on the front and rear wheels.
Otherwise, the bicycles and/or loose parts could become
detached from the vehicle, causing an accident and possible
property damage and injury to other road users.
Before mounting, remove child seats and all loose parts such
as water bottles, saddlebags and E-bike batteries from the
bicycles and put them away.
Attention
There is a risk of injury if bicycles slip off or fall over. Make sure
that the bicycles cannot slip off or fall over.
Only put on and take off the bicycles with the help of another
person.
Attention
On some types of vehicle, the rack and the bicycles may be
positioned too close to the vehicle's exhaust system. The hot
exhaust pipe and fumes can damage the rack and/or the bicy-
cles. In this case, the bicycle rack is not suitable for use.
For bicycles with carbon parts, consult the manufacturer/
dealer to find out whether they are suitable for transport on the
rack.
Arrangement of the bicycles
Please note the arrangement of the bicycles in the direction of
travel (arrow) as shown here.

Mount heavy bicycles close to the vehicle and light bicycles
