3. Instruccions de funcionament
Once the rack is securely installed, loading and securing your bikes is simple. The rack is designed to carry up to two bikes, with features that protect your bike frames and prevent contact during transport.
- Rubber Cradles: Soft rubber cradles hold bike frames securely while protecting them from scratches. These cradles allow for complete adjustment along the bike arm.
- Anti-Sway Cages: Integrated no-sway cages drastically minimize bike frame movement (front-to-back and side-to-side), preventing bikes from colliding with each other or the vehicle.
- Narrow Cradle Arms: The design of the cradle arms allows them to hold a wider range of bike frames, including smaller child frames.
- Assegurar les bicicletes: After placing bikes in the cradles, use the rubber bike straps to firmly secure the frames. For added security, it is recommended to use an additional strap or bungee cord to secure the front wheel to the bike frame, especially for longer journeys.

5. Solució De Problemes
Here are some common issues and solutions for your bike carrier:
- Bike Frame Incompatibility: If you have a bicycle with a non-conventional frame (e.g., women's, child's, or full-suspension bikes), a Thule Frame Adapter (model 982XT) may be required to securely attach your bike to the hanging-style rack.
- Bike-to-Bike Contact: While the anti-sway cages minimize contact, for some bike geometries or during rough travel, bikes may still touch. Consider using additional padding between bikes or, if frequently transporting two bikes with challenging frames, a 3-bike carrier might offer more spacing.
- Rear Wiper Interference: Note that the rack may obstruct the use of your vehicle's rear wiper when installed.
- Ajust ample: Ensure the FitDial is correctly set for your vehicle and all six straps are tightened firmly. Re-check strap tension after the first few miles of driving.
