FIAMMA VW T5 Carry Bike Bicycles Carrier
Check that nothing has been damaged or deformed during transport. In the event of doubts or questions concerning the installation, use or limitations of the product, contact the dealer. We recommend that the installation is carried out by qualified personnel and in compliance with current local regulations.
WARNING!
Do not fully tighten the fork to the tube, leave 2mm space.
To fix the lower brackets, it is necessary to pull down the structure.
Make sure that the fastening of the Carry-Bike is steady.
In case of problems please contact your local dealer indicating the data on the nameplate. Consult our website for spare parts drawing.
Read the following instructions and warnings carefully; failure to observe
these installation and usage instructions as well as the laws for driving in
the relevant country may cause severe harm or damage for which the
manufacturer declines all responsibility. Before installation, ensure
compatibility with the vehicle on which the product must be installed.
In the event of an accident involving the vehicle and/or the product, ensure
that the product has not been damaged. In the event of damage, contact your
local retailer before moving the vehicle.
Fiamma declines every responsibility for any modification of the product that
may cause damage and/or injury to things and people.
Checking that the wall/rear door is sufficiently solid and suitable for
guaranteeing the resistance of the anchoring points is always mandatory. If
not, strength and compliance with the maximum load indicated in the
instructions are not guaranteed and it will be necessary to reinforce these
points.
After having positioned the Carry-Bike on the rear axle of the vehicle, the
normal weight distribution on both axles would be modified. This variation must
not exceed the maximum permissible axle load.
Never exceed the maximum permitted length and the total weight of the full-
load vehicle.
Make sure that loading occurs following a correct weight distribution; it must
be uniformly distributed (the heaviest bike must be placed near the wall of
the vehicle) to ensure better stability.
Always give warnings about the presence of the Carry-Bike on your vehicle,
using a clearly signal for leaning loads and, in case of limited rear
visibility, use the additional rear-view mirrors.
Take into account the presence of the Carry-Bike, paying attention during
driving and especially during reversing maneuvers, particularly if you have
parking assist system.
Always comply with speed limits and the Highway Code.
The speed should always be suitable to traffic conditions and towed load.
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).
Check periodically the bicycle rack to make sure it is firmly attached,
especially during the first kilometers of after long trips to avoid damages of
the Carry-Bike/vehicle. Make sure the belts are not loose and that the holding
brackets have not shifted. Replace worn components immediately.
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.
While assembling, pay attention not to close the rear door if screws and
brackets of the Carry-Bike are not tightened.
Make sure that, during roar door opening, the Carry-Bike and/or the Bike-Block
do not touch the roof of the vehicle (raised roof) and/or its opening systems
(pop-up roofs).
During Carry-Bike installation, verify that there is enough distance between
handlebars and/or pedals and the vehicle’s rear windows in order to avoid any
damages of the window van; do not leave accessories attached (bay seats,
baskets, etc) because vibrations could disengage bikes.
In some cases, the rear windscreen wiper may not work due to the presence of
bicycles. Be aware of the brush radius before operating the windscreen wiper.
On this type of Carry-Bike, bike covers are not allowed (Bike Cover).
You can open the tailgate with the Carry-Bike mounted without bikes.
It is recommended to rotate the handlebars of bicycles to avoid damage to the
vehicle wall, for which Fiamma declines all responsibility.
