GB Technical Specification

• Weight of fully assembled raised towbar mounted carrier - 2 cycle is 18.3 kg.
• Weight of fully assembled raised towbar mounted carrier - 3 cycle is 22.2 kg.
• Maximum permitted load capacity for raised towbar mounted carrier - 2 cycle is 40 kg. Refer to the owner's handbook for information on towbar specific maximum permitted vertical load capacity.
• Maximum permitted load capacity for raised towbar mounted carrier - 3 cycle is 60 kg. Refer to the owner's handbook for information on towbar specific maximum permitted vertical load capacity.
• Maximum individual bicycle weight is 20 kg. Refer to the owner's handbook for information on vehicle specific maximum bicycle weight.
• Safety instructions for checking before and during travel.
• The vehicle driver is solely responsible for making sure that the product is in faultless condition and that the cycle carrier load is securely fastened.
• Never exceed the permitted vertical towbar arm capacity of the vehicle. The combined weight of the cycle carrier and the load must never exceed the permitted vertical towbar arm capacity. The information on the vehicle's vertical towbar arm capacity can be found in the vehicle information booklet or next to the towbar on a information panel.
• The maximum weight per bicycle is 20 kg. Always position the biggest/heaviest bicycle first and closest to the vehicle and then position the smaller/lighter bicycle.
• The cycle carrier shall be assembled and fitted securely in accordance with the instructions.
• Before starting a journey, the function of the tail lamp assembly must be checked. When using the fog lamp on the cycle carrier, make sure the fog lamp on the vehicle is not working at the same time.
• Before starting a journey, all loose parts must be taken off the cycles being transported. This could be, for example, child seats, baskets, locks and cycle pumps. The cycles must not contain loose items that could cause danger to others.
• If the vehicle is equipped with a power tailgate, this function must be disabled. The luggage compartment must be opened manually when the cycle carrier is fitted to avoid damage to the cycle carrier and/or vehicle.
• Check that straps and other fasteners are secure, tighten if necessary.
• The vehicle's total length increases when the cycle carrier is attached. The cycles themselves may increase the vehicle's total width and height. Take care when reversing and/or entering garages or ferries for example.
• Replace any damaged or worn parts immediately. During use, all levers, bolts or nuts must be tightened (according to instructions). The cycle arms must always be locked during transport.
• The cycle carrier must always be locked during transport. Keep the keys in a safe place.
• When the cycle carrier is fitted the vehicle's on road behavior may change, especially when taking curves and during braking.
• Applicable speed limits and other traffic regulations must always be followed.
• Speed should always be tailored to suit safety considerations with regard to traffic conditions and the load being carried. Maximum speed is 130 km/h (80 mph).
• The cycle carrier is constructed to carry standard bike frames. Tandem cycles may not be carried.
• Jaguar Land Rover absolves itself of responsibility for any personal injuries or consequential damage to property or wealth caused by incorrect fitting or use.

• Clean the cycle carrier regularly using warm water or car shampoo. Make sure the cycle carrier is cleaned when using at coastal locations (salt water) or during times when salt is used on the roads (winter).
• For vehicle first type-approved after 1 October 1998, the fitted cycle carrier or the transported goods are not allowed to hide the vehicle's third stop lamp. The vehicle's third stop lamp shall be visible as follows. If these stipulations are not met, a replacement stop lamp shall be fitted.
1. From the left and the right sides as follows: Relative to the vehicle's longitudinal axis - at a 10° horizontal angle.
2. Upwards: Relative to the upper edge of the lamp - at a 10° vertical angle.
3. Downward: Relative to the lower edge of the lamp - at a 5° vertical angle.
• Lubricate the coupling mechanism (not the towbar contact area) or other moving parts when required.
• Check that the towbar arm is clean from dirt and oil and not damaged.
• Keep a safe distance between the cycle carrier and cycles mounted upon it and the exhaust system to avoid heat damage to the cycle carrier and/or cycles.
• Should the cycle carrier move on the towbar, or the clamping force is lost in the handle-fixation, the clamping force around the towbar arm must be retightened according to the mounting instruction. Alternatively ask your local Jaguar Land Rover retailer for assistance.
• If projecting more than 40 cm beyond the outer edge of the light emitting surfaces of the clearance or rear lamps of the luggage rack, the load shall be provided, if necessary, to the front with a white lamp at the side not more than 40 cm from its edge and not more than 1.5 metres above the lane. A red lamp shall be visible towards the rear.
• Check that the cycle carrier is securely fitted after driving a short distance (50 km or 30 miles) and thereafter at regular intervals.
• When not in use, the product should be removed from the vehicle.
