Attach the pedal crank by rotating the
attachment screw on the pedal crank
mount.
Place the wheel recesses so that the
bicycle is roughly horizontal. Here,
the distance between the pedals and
the tailgate should be at least 5 cm.
Both bicycle tyres must be in the
wheel recesses.Caution
Ensure that the wheel recesses
are pulled out as far as necessary
to have both bicycle tyres placed
in the recesses. Otherwise a
horizontal mounting of the bicycle
is not guaranteed. Disregard could
lead to damage of the bicycle
wheels caused by hot exhaust
fumes.
Align the bicycle in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle: Slightly
loosen the pedal mount.
Place the bicycle upright using the
rotary lever on the pedal crank
recess.
If the two bicycles obstruct one
another, the relative positions of the bicycles can be adapted by adjusting
the wheel recesses and the rotary
lever on the pedal crank recess until
the bicycles no longer touch one
another. Ensure there is sufficient
clearance from the vehicle.

vehicle is at least 5 cm. If
necessary, loosen handlebar and swivel sideways.
The settings for the wheel recesses
and on the rotary lever on the pedal
crank recess should be noted and saved for each bicycle. Correct
presetting will facilitate refitting of the
bicycle.
