  WARNING
The glass must be fitted before 10 minutes elapse, as the adhesive properties of the glue are reduced after that time.
Do not apply a very thick bead of glue nor press the glass hard against the bodywork flange, as the excess glue would be seen through the clearance, as there is no sealing lip.

–  Check the window glass clearances → Chapter.
–  During the hardening time, fix the windscreen with adhesive tape.
When the glue is dry → Chapter, fit the following:
  Note
If the sticking cord applied is very thick, and the adhesive spreads to the window heater zone, this adhesive must be removed once it is dry.
–  Fit the connectors for the heated windscreen.
–  Install rear wiper motor and then rear wiper arm → Electrical system; Rep. gr.92
