7a – Fitting the lower straps to the side beams:
- Pass the two hooks B through the loops formed by the lower straps A.
- Attach the lower straps under the vehicle to the metal side beams or metal hooks.
- Ensure that the straps are not too close to the silencer, as there is a risk of damage.
Fixing to the bumper is not permitted
7b – Fitting the lower straps on to the tailgate:
- Attach to two lower straps to the lower metal rim of the tailgate.
NEVER SUPPORT ON A PLASTIC COMPONENT.
8 – Tightening the straps:
- Tighten the straps to obtain perfect positioning on the car.
- Check that everything is properly tightened by pushing the cycle carrier hard in all directions; it
should not move on the vehicle. If this is not the case, tighten all the straps again.
9 – Fitting the complete grip straps:
- Attach the complete grip straps (red), C and D, to the cycle carrier's framework.
10 – Strapping on the bicycles:
- Position the first bicycle with the chain facing towards the vehicle.
- Fit the bicycles alternately facing in the opposite direction, so that the handlebars do not foul on each
other.
- The bicycles must be distributed correctly on the cycle carrier, snugly and as close to the vehicle as
possible. The centre of gravity of the assembly must be as low as possible, without the bicycles being
able to touch the ground when passing over an obstacle (speed bump, etc.).
- Loads sticking out beyond the cycle carrier must comply with current regulations and must be
appropriately fixed. It is the user's responsibility to comply with the standards applying in each country
where the carrier is used.
E.g. In France the load must not exceed a total width of 2.5 m.
- Ensure that cycle tyres are not too close to the vehicle's tail pipe; hot exhaust gases could damage
them.
11 – Strapping on the bicycles:
- It is essential to fix the bicycle frames using straps E, securing them firmly to the cycle carrier's
frame.
ATTENTION: THESE STRAPS PROVIDE YOUR SAFETY.
12 – Complete grip of the bicycles:
- Pass the complete grip straps, C and D (red), through the wheels: they prevent the bicycles falling
off.
- They ensure that the bicycles are held on the frame.
ATTENTION: THESE STRAPS PROVIDE YOUR SAFETY.
13 – Checking the tightness of the straps:
- The lower cycle carrier straps must be re-tightened.
- Check the other straps to ensure that there is no movement.
- Check that everything is properly tight by attempting to move the bicycles; they must not move on the
cycle carrier. If this is not the case, tighten all the straps again.
- Do not allow the straps to flap in the wind; use the elastic straps E provided.
14 - Use:
- Comply with current regulations and the Highway Code.
-We draw your attention to the fact that incorrect installation or use can result in danger for you and
others, for which you may be held liable.
