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.
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 modifi ed. 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 clear 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, pay attention during driving and especially during reversing maneuvers, particularly if you have a 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 damage of the Carry-Bike/vehicle. Make sure the belts are not loose and that the holding brackets have not shifted. Replace worn components immediately.
While assembling, pay attention not to close the rear door if the screws of the lower bar of the Carry-Bike are not tightened, the body of the vehicle could be damaged.
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
damage 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).
Depending on the type of bicycles transported, check the correct visibility of
the rear lights. If the visibility is missing, provide a light repeater bar.
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.
