NOTE:
Mark the body and the glass with matching marks if the windshield glass is reused.

WARNING:

Always wear safety glasses and heavy gloves to help prevent injuries.

CAUTION:

• Never use a cutting knife or power cutting tool when the glass is reused.
• Be careful not to scratch the glass when removing.
• Never set or stand the glass on its edge. Small chips may develop into cracks.

INSTALLATION

• The dam sealant rubber should be installed in position.
• Use a genuine Nissan Urethane Adhesive Kit (if available) or an equivalent and follow the instructions pro-

vided with it.

• Open a door window while the urethane adhesive is curing. This prevents the glass from being forced out by

passenger room air pressure when all door windows are closed.

• Inform the customer that the vehicle should remain stationary until the urethane adhesive is completely

cured (approximately 24 hours). Curing time varies with temperature and humidity.

WARNING:

• Keep heat and open flames away as primers and adhesive are flammable.
• The materials contained in the kit are harmful if swallowed, and may irritate skin and eyes. Never let

them come in contact with the skin and eyes.

• Use in an open, well ventilated location. Never breathe the vapors. They may be harmful if inhaled.

Move immediately to an area with fresh air if affected by vapor inhalation.

• Driving the vehicle before the urethane adhesive is completely cured may affect the performance of

the windshield in an accident.

CAUTION:

• Perform adjustment of front wiper arms stop location. Refer to 

WW-52, "Adjustment"

.

• Never use an adhesive that is past its usable term. Shelf life of this product is limited to six months

after the date of manufacture. Adhere carefully to the expiration or manufacture date printed on the
box.

• Keep primers and adhesive in a cool, dry place. Ideally, they should be stored in a refrigerator.
• Never leave primers or adhesive cartridge unattended with their caps open or off.
• The vehicle should not be driven for 24 hours or more or until the urethane adhesive is completely

cured. Curing time varies depending on temperature and humidity. The curing time increases under
lower temperature and lower humidity.

REPAIRING WATER LEAKAGE FOR WINDSHIELD GLASS

Leakage can be repaired without removing the windshield glass.
Determine the extent of leakage if water is leaking between the urethane adhesive material and body or glass.
This can be done by applying water to the windshield area while pushing glass outward.
Apply primer (if necessary) and then urethane adhesive to the leakage point to stop the leakage.
