INSTRUCTIONS FOR ASSEMBLING THE BICYCLE CARRIER: Image no 1
• Fix the carrier frame (1) and the restraining bars (2) with the aid of the parts no 6, 8, 10, and
18 while observing the instructions (see image no 1). After that check if you have screwed
down the selfblocking nuts (19) properly.
• Connect the bicycle rails (3) with the screws (19) and the parts no 8 and 10, like it is shown in
image no 2. Then put the end caps (9) onto them.
• Check if you have screwed down the nuts (19) correctly. After that fasten the assembled
bicycle rails (3) with the aid of the parts no 7, 8, and 10 onto the rail carrier tube (2), like it is
shown in image no 3. Here you have to check as well if the nuts have been screwed down
properly.
• Mount the poles (4) with the aid of the spring pins (5) and see to it that these pins are locked
correctly (see image no 4 for this).
• How to assemble the blocking systems (16): Fasten these blocking systems (16) with the aid
of the parts no 8, 10, and 17 in the special holes (see image no 5). Make sure that the
selfblocking nuts (10) are screwed down correctly after this.
FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE MOUNTING THE BICYCLE CARRIER ONTO
YOUR VEHICLE:
• Clean the places where the carrier touches the vehicle carefully with a soft tissue and let
them dry. Also clean the surface of the deck lid carefully to prevent possible damages of the
car body where the carrier touches your vehicle. Depending on the type of car body you can
put a soft tissue or the like under the tension belt where it touches the car.
• Loosen the turning handles (20) to adjust the bicycle carrier correctly on the vehicle. This way
the plastic cog wheels are deblocked. Then you can turn the bar which bears on the window
pane of the car. Adjust this bar into the most suitable position for your type of vehicle (see
images no 6 and 7 for this).
• After you have adjusted the turning handles pull them tight again.
HOW TO FASTEN THE BICYCLE CARRIER TO THE VEHICLE (see image no 7):
• NOTICE: The mounting of the carrier can be impeded by spoilers and spare wheels, just like
by a too small gap width.
• Begin by opening the deck lid slightly and fix the upper crochets of the fixing belts (15) to the
upper edge of the deck lid.
• Warning! These crochets cannot be fixed onto bumpers or car parts of plastic or glass, etc.
Check first if the parts are suitable for fixing the crochets on them.
• After having adjusted the height of the carrier to your vehicle with the aid of the spring pins
(5), fix the supports (4) at the lower edge of the car’s deck lid. After that check if the sping
pins are locked firmly.
• Warning! You may only fasten these supports on the lower edge of the deck lid if it is made
from metal!
