How do you install the Smart bike rack?

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Checks and maintenance

It will be possible to install the bike rack for the Smart by removing the two small circular covers that will be found on the sides of the rear bumper: once these have been removed, it will be possible to insert the two support pins into the holes. Then you will need to place the bike rack on top of the appropriate pins so that it can be fixed by screwing the underlying knobs. Once the bike rack has been locked with the knobs, it will be possible to verify that the bikes can be loaded onto it without any movements or vibrations.
