Replace or repair damaged or worn parts immediately.

•  This carrier is designed for temporary use only. Remove when not in use or before going through a car wash.
• 

Never block or impede vehicle exhaust. Do not use if vehicle exhaust is pointing towards the carrier. This can be a fire 

hazard and damage personal property and the vehicle.

•  Distribute loads evenly and secure with tie down straps or bungee cords (sold separately). Uneven loads may cause

•

•  NOT recommended for hitches less than 12" from the ground to the bottom of the hitch without the use of a riser 

adapter.

free of clutter, and well lit. When not in use, store in a safe, clean location out of the reach of children.

•  Failure to follow these instructions can lead to serious injury and property damage and will void the warranty.
