Electrically folding trailer coupling

Warning!
Danger of injury and risk of damage when
the ball hitch is extended or retracted.
f Make sure that no persons, animals or obsta-
cles are in the movement range of the ball
hitch.
f In order to stop the ball hitch movement in the
event of danger, touch rocker switch A again.
f Never swivel the ball hitch if a trailer is hitched
to the vehicle or a bicycle carrier or similar
item is mounted on or supported by the ball
hitch.
f Use the trailer coupling only with the ball hitch
fully extended.
f Never use auxiliary devices or tools to inter-
fere with the movement of the ball hitch. This
could damage the locking mechanism. Safe
use of the trailer coupling would then no longer
be guaranteed.
f Make sure that the ball hitch is properly locked
in place prior to every journey.
