INTRODUCTION - BODYSHELL WINDOWS
WARNINGS
Work carefully on the fittings and use the recommended tools correctly to prevent damage.
Use the specialist equipment for removing the window glasses, working very carefully to avoid damaging the glass and the bodyshell.
During the operations illustrated below always use either the piano wire or the vibrating blade to cut the sealant. The two tools can usually be used interchangeably.
Follow meticulously the manufacturer''s recommendations for sealants, as far as the instructions for usage and times are concerned.
PRECAUTIONS
Before working on the electrical system (connectors, electrical components, wiring etc.), always DISCONNECT THE BATTERY.
If the battery is disconnected, the Steering Lock Node remains in the condition (unlocked or locked) that it is in: during workshop operations and repairs, whenever it is necessary to turn the steering wheel with the battery disconnected, leave the TEG inserted when the battery is disconnected. The steering will therefore remain released and free to turn.
Use the specialist equipment for removing the window glasses, working very carefully to avoid personal injury.
Always move the glass with the help of an assistant.
