Exterior Structure
• Always maintain the permissible load-carrying capacity
of the carrier (75 kg) and never overload it.
• If the rear carrier is fully loaded, and depending on how
much the load juts out over it, the load on the rear axle
will be increased while it will be decreased on the front
axle. This can change the driving performance and
steering and brake response of the vehicle.
• The carrier reduces the rear ramp angle of the vehicle.
Therefore, the vehicle may touch the ground when
driving over uneven terrain.
• The rear licence plate must be centrally mounted bet-
ween the carrier's licence plate lights.
• Do not use a high-pressure cleaner to clean the carrier
as this may damage the surface protection.
• Use only original spare parts and accessories that have
been certified by SAWIKO in order to maintain your
rights from the guarantee.
• Simultaneous use of the eBike carrier and the tow-bar
is not permitted. Only one system may be mounted at
a time: either the eBike carrier or the tow-bar.
Ensure that the electric connection via the 13-pole plug is not
broken when the eBike carrier is folded up; otherwise, the
illumination devices will not function properly.
For further information, please refer to the manufacturer's
enclosed operating instructions and store them together with
the documents for this vehicle. These operating instructions
are an important document that enable you to take the carrier
with you. Should an inspection be carried out, this document
must be shown to the authorities upon request.

5.7 Sun awning
As option, your motor home can be fitted with an awning at-
tached to the roof. In models with an alcove bed, the awning
is attached to the side wall.
• An awning offers protection from the sun, not against the
elements.
• Do not place people or obstacles in the extension/retraction
area of the awning.
• The awning winding mechanism is fitted with a mechanical
block control to limit the extent to which it can be extended.
Never attempt to exceed the block control by force.
• Always support the awning with the integrated struts when
extended.
• The awning must always be completely retracted and secu-
red before driving.
