Attachment:
Before attaching the tow ball to the car please remove the
cover from the housing (see picture 4.1).
• Insert tow ball (that must be in the spring position) fully
into the housing.
• Hold the tow ball in position, keeping your hands away
from the operating handle, use a slight force to pull at
the tow ball as shown in picture 4.3.
• The unlocking pin will trigger the locking mechanism and
the locking process will automatically take place.
• Always check the tow ball is correctly installed, this can
be recognised by:
• The operating handle pops out and a approximate gap
of 5 millimeters will be visible between the tow ball and
the operating handle (see picture 5.1).
• A green field will be visible in the indication area of the
operating handle (see picture 5.1).
• The tow ball can be locked using the supplied keys (see
picture 5.2). This can only be done when the handle
has popped out completely, after this the handle can no
longer be pushed in and the tow ball cannot be released
(remember to remove the keys).
