Rear carrier system

Rear carrier system for two
bicycles
The rear carrier system (Flex-Fix
system) allows one bicycle to be
attached to a pull-out carrier
integrated into the vehicle floor. It is
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
pull-out carrier. The maximum load on
the adapter is 20 kg.
The wheelbase of a bicycle must not
exceed 1.15 metre. Otherwise the
secure fastening of a bicycle is not
possible.
If not in use, the 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.
Extending
Open the tailgate.
9 Warning
No-one should be in the extension
zone of the rear carrier system,
risk of injury.
