Always t the wheel clamps on the wheels of a bicycle using the wheel
straps. These wheel straps x the bicycle to the carrier and the wheels
cannot move out of the wheel rail while driving.
On longer journeys or if driving over poor or unhardened surfaces
regularly (every 2-3 hours) check the fastening of the bicycles and
carrier.
Before you drive off always check that the bicycle carrier lights are
working. Driving with a bicycle carrier with the lights not working is an
offence. The driver of the car is responsible for this.
Child’s seats, water bottles, etc. must be removed from the bicycle.
These items can come loose while driving. It is recommended to also
remove bicycle bags from the bicycle.
If the carrier is not mounted on the tow bar, always place the tow bar
plug in its holder. This is to prevent damage.
The bicycle carrier can be locked to prevent theft and inadvertent
unlocking. So always use these locks when you are on the way with
the MovaNext.
When tting and removing the bicycle carrier make sure that you rst
unlock the lock. You then avoid damage to the carrier.
To extend the life of the bicycle carrier it is important to store the
carrier in a dry place and maintain it properly (see section 11:
Maintenance and replacement).
If you have had an accident with your vehicle while the bicycle carrier
was assembled, you must have the carrier checked for damage by the
dealer. You must also check the carrier after swerving or after driving
on a poor surface for any length of time.
No changes of any nature may be made to the carrier. Using non-
original replacement parts and the use of bungee cords is also not
allowed.

rmly can cause damage to these bicycles. The manufacturer accepts
no liability for damage to carbon frames.
