Safety Instructions

General Safety Precautions:

• Read and follow all instructions and warnings carefully. Failure to do so may cause severe harm or damage, for which the manufacturer declines all responsibility.
• Ensure compatibility with the vehicle before installation.
• Check for damage during transport and after any accident. Contact your dealer if damage is found before moving the vehicle.
• Do not modify the product, as this may cause damage or injury.
• Verify the vehicle's rear wall or door is sufficiently solid and suitable for guaranteeing the resistance of the anchoring points. Reinforce if necessary.
• The installation of the Carry-Bike modifies the vehicle's weight distribution. Do not exceed the maximum permissible axle load.
• Never exceed the maximum permitted length and the total weight of the fully loaded vehicle.
• Load bikes with correct weight distribution: place heavier bikes closer to the vehicle wall for better stability. Do not exceed the vehicle's maximum width.
• Always signal the presence of the bike carrier with a warning sign for protruding loads.
• If rear visibility is limited, use additional rear-view mirrors.
• Be aware of the Carry-Bike's presence while driving, especially during reversing maneuvers. Be mindful of parking assist systems.
• Always comply with speed limits and traffic laws. Adjust speed to traffic conditions and the transported load.
• If using the carrier with a trailer, ensure the tow hook is accessible and has sufficient angular mobility (refer to DIN 74058).
• Periodically check the rack's attachment, especially after the first kilometers and before/after long trips. Ensure straps are not loose and brackets have not shifted. Replace worn components immediately.
