WARNING: Be sure to wear gloves and goggles when working with glass cutting tools, as cutting may cause splinters. Wear earmuffs while cutting. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
CAUTION: Be sure to change blade when changing depth of cut to avoid damage to body and trim panels.
NOTE: When cutting through the glass guide pins, resistance may be felt in the upper right and lower left corners of the glass.
Using a suitable straight glazing knife, cut through the PU adhesive and, with the help of another mechanic, remove the rear window pane glass using glass suction cups.
- Cut the PU adhesive from inside the car to the given maximum depth.
- 1. 20 mm
- 2. 30mm
- 3. 50mm
- 4. 40 mm
Installation
1. Carefully remove the rest of the glass mounting studs from the rear window vent flange.
2.
CAUTION: Do not touch the surface of the adhesive as this will prevent re-adhesion.
Carefully remove the remaining PU adhesive from the rear window pane glass flange, leaving approximately 1 mm of undercut PU adhesive on the flange.
3. Inspect the rear window flange for sheet metal damage, corrosion, or the presence of foreign material that may or may not have broken the glass.
4.
CAUTION: To ensure that the PU adhesive cures, it is essential that all surfaces to be bonded be free of moisture.
Using a hot air gun, heat with warm air (25°C) rear window-vent glass flange and glass bonding line to remove all traces of moisture.
5. Prepare the glass, rear window flange, and trimmed PU adhesive according to the instructions included with the PU adhesive kit.
6.
NOTE: Discard the first 100mm of PU adhesive as this adhesive may have a shorter working time.
NOTE: An overlap of 20 mm is required at any break in the continuous strip to prevent water leakage.
Apply PU adhesive in a continuous strip 8-10 mm high on the flange of the rear window window along the bonding line.
7. With the help of another mechanic, use the suction cups to install the rear window pane glass.
- Set the glass to the desired position by pressing firmly and evenly.
8.
CAUTION: While the PU adhesive is curing, the door windows must be left open to prevent pressure from building up when opening and closing the doors.
Using a suitable film, fix the rear window pane glass in the correct position until the PU adhesive cures.
9. If the ambient temperature drops below 10°C, use a hot air blower to blow hot air continuously (25°C) within 15 minutes (inside or outside the car).
10. Install the C-pillar trim panel. Refer to Section 501-05 for more information.
