Window Installation, Preparations

Unbroken window







NOTE:
- When an unbroken window is reused, cut back remaining adhesive material to 1 to 2 mm (1/32 to 5/64 in.) before re-gluing (with electric cutting tool and scraping knife VAG 1561/8).
- Remaining material serves as adhesive base for new adhesive

CAUTION: Do not prime or activate adhesive surface or treat it with cleaning solution. Keep adhesive surface dirt and grease free.

Exception: If gluing will not take place immediately after cutting back, remaining residual material must be activated with activator AMV 181 800 02 or equivalent.

- Install molding on window.
