The telescopic rod can be used to secure the load against the rear seats to prevent it from moving around.

– To install: insert one bracket 2 into both the left and the right loading rails and slide it to the desired position.
– Insert telescopic rod 1 into brackets 2 and, while doing so, press release button 4 and push the rod downwards until it engages.
– Make sure that locking button 3 on brackets 2 is pressed.
This keeps brackets 2 in place on the loading rail.
– To remove: press release button 4 on respective bracket 2 and remove telescopic rod 1 by pulling it upwards and out.
