Selecting the right system
The rear seats are the most
convenient location to fasten a child
restraint system.
Children should travel facing
rearwards in the vehicle as long as
possible. This ensures that the child's backbone, which is still very weak, is
under less strain in the event of an
accident.
Suitable are restraint systems that
comply with valid UN ECE
regulations. Check local laws and
regulations for mandatory use of child restraint systems.
Ensure that the child restraint system
to be installed is compatible with the
vehicle type.

possible to attach one further bicycle on an adapter. The transportation of
other objects is not permitted.
The maximum load of the rear carrier
system is 50 kg with attached adapter
and 30 kg without attached adapter.
This allows the attachment of an
electrically-powered bicycle to the
rear carrier system. The maximum
load on the adapter is 20 kg.
The wheelbase of a bicycle must not
exceed 1.15 m. Otherwise the secure
fastening of a bicycle is not possible.
If not in use, the rear carrier system
must be slid back into the vehicle
floor.
There must not be any objects on the bicycles that could become loose
during transportation.Caution
If the rear carrier system is
extended and the vehicle is fully
loaded, the chassis clearance will
be reduced.
Drive carefully whenever the road has a strong inclination or when
driving over a ramp, bump, etc.
Caution
Consult your bicycle dealer before
attaching bicycles with carbon
frames. The bicycles might get
damaged.
Notice
The tail lights of the vehicle will be
deactivated if the tail lights of the rear carrier system are installed.
Extending

extension zone of the rear carrier system, risk of injury.
