Removing the bicycles
Release the holders (4), (3) and (2) and remove the bicycles in
the reverse order.
Preparations before driving off
Attention
Always check all screw connections and fastenings of
the bicycle rack and the bicycles after every assembly,
before every trip and at intervals during lengthy trips to make
sure they are sitting firmly, and retighten them if necessary.
Otherwise, the bicycle rack may and the bicycles mounted on
it may come loose and injure other persons and/or cause an
accident.
Repeat this check at regular intervals regardless of road
conditions.
Attention
Check that the lights are in perfect working order prior to
each journey, otherwise accidents may be caused.
Note
The number plate and the lights on the bicycle rack must not be
obscured.
If the bicycle rack is not fully loaded, make sure that:
•
Unused holders are removed from the rack frame and stowed
safely in the luggage compartment
•
All keys are removed and kept in a safe place
•
The lashing straps on all the wheel rails are closed
Changing bulbs
Attention
When changing bulbs the vehicle ignition must be switched off
and the plug for the lighting system removed from the towbar
electrical socket. Failure to do so can result in a short circuit or
other damage. If you are not sure, have the bulbs replaced by
a specialist dealer.
Note
The lamp change is described and illustrated using the left tail
light cluster on the bicycle rack. The procedure is the same
for the right tail lights.
Note
When ordering a new bulb, you must specify which bulb it is
(14, 15, 16, 17).
