INSTALLATION
1. Remove the excess PU adhesive from the opening flange.
^
Carefully trim the remaining PU adhesive from the rear window opening to leave approximately 1 mm of trimmed PU adhesive adhered to the
opening flange.
CAUTION:
^
During the curing period of the PU adhesive, the door windows must be left open to avoid a build up of pressure when the doors are opened
and closed.
^
Avoid touching the trimmed surface as this will inhibit the bonding of the new adhesive.
2. Check the pinch weld sealing area for damaged sheet metal, rust or foreign material which may have caused, or may cause glass breakage.
3. Using a hot air gun, apply warm air (25°C) to the rear window opening flange and glass bond line to remove all traces of moisture.
