Minimum curing period
  WARNING
Special standards must be adhered to when replacing bonded windows. One of these standards is, for example, that a freshly bonded windscreen must comply with the safety requirements, even in an accident, following the minimum prescribed curing period.
The minimum curing period for 2-component adhesive is 2 hours for all windows.
If only the 1-component glass adhesive is used, the minimum curing period is 16 hours for all windows.
Minimum curing period is the time from bonding the window until vehicle may be used. During this time, the vehicle must stand on a level surface at room temperature (at least 15 °C).
  WARNING
Vehicle is safe to use only after the curing period is completed.
