Read the operating instructions of your bike carrier and
comply with the maximum load capacity and recom-
mended or prescribed driving speed. If applicable, com-
ply with the required supporting load on the trailer hitch.
G
Make sure to remove all parts of your MERIDA
bike (tools, pannier bags (d-f) , child seats (g)
etc.) which may come loose during transport.
Risk of an accident!
G
Do not buy a carrier on which the MERIDA
bike has to be mounted upside down, i.e. with
the handlebars and saddle fixed face down to
the carrier. This way of fastening the bike exposes han-
dlebars, stem, saddle and seat post to extreme stress
during transport. Do not opt for a carrier system with
crank arm fit. Risk of breakage!
G
Check whether your MERIDA bike is prop-
erly fastened before and at regular intervals
during the journey. A MERIDA bike that de-
taches from the carrier system may endanger other
road users.
G
Always secure the MERIDA bike or its com-
ponents when putting it/them into the interior
of your car. Parts shifting around can impair
your safety.
A
Most clamps are a potential source of dam-
age to large-diameter frame tubes that are
not designed to be fixed in such clamps! Do
not use such systems with carbon frames.
A
Please make sure the lights and the number
plate of your car are not hidden from view.
For some carriers, a second exterior rear view
mirror is required by the road traffic regulations.
A
Bear in mind that your car has a greater
overall height with the bike on it. Measure
the overall height and place a sign stating
the height somewhere in the cockpit or on the steering
wheel so that it can be easily seen.
A
If your bike has disc brakes, be sure to mount
the safety locks before transporting your
MERIDA bike with the wheels dismounted.
A
Pull the brake lever and secure it with a
strong elastic strap
(h)
when transporting a
MERIDA bike with hydraulic disc brakes.
