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. CAUTION:Do not touch the adhesive surface as re-bonding will be impaired. NOTE:Make sure the spacers located at the lower corners of the sliding door window glass flange are secure. Carefully trim the remaining PU adhesive from the sliding door window glass flange to leave approximately 1 mm of trimmed PU adhesive adhered to the flange. | | | -
Check the sliding door window glass flange for damaged sheet metal, rust or foreign material which may have caused, or may cause, glass breakage. | | | -
