over the whole length of the piano wire to 
prevent it from breaking due to localized 
heating.

SIDE WINDOW GLASS INSTALLATION

id091200803900

Warning

• Using a razor with bare hands can cause injury. Always wear gloves when using a razor.

Caution

• If a door is opened or closed when all the window glass is closed, the resulting change in air 

pressure could cause the sealant to crack preventing the proper installation of the glass. Keep the 
door glass open until the side window glass installation is completed.

1. Remove sealant along the perimeter of the glass using a razor or scraper. (when reusing the glass)
2. Clean and degrease the ceramic part along the perimeter of the glass.
3. Inspect the glass for cracks. If it is cracked, chamfer it using sandpaper.
4. Press pin A until it locks, then press pin B and 

fastener C simultaneously until they lock as 
shown in the figure.
Align with the alignment marks marked before 
removing the glass.

5. Apply glass primer along the hollowed marks in 

the ceramic coating on the new glass, along the 
sealant tracks on the reused glass, then allow it to 
dry for approx. 30 min.

Caution

• To prevent weakening of the primer 

adhesion, keep the bonding surface free 
of dirt, moisture, and grease. Do not 
touch the surface with your hand.

Note

• Apply primer to the hollowed marks in the ceramic coating.

6. Cut away the old sealant using a razor or scraper so that 1— 2 mm {0.04— 0.079 in} thickness of sealant 

remains along the perimeter of the frame.

7. If the sealant has come off completely in any one place, apply some primer after degreasing, and allow it 

approx. 30 min to dry. Then apply 2 mm {0.079 in} thickness of new sealant.

8. Clean and degrease the bonding surface along the perimeter of the body.

• To prevent weakening of the primer adhesion, keep the bonding surface free of dirt, moisture, and 

grease. Do not touch the surface with your hand.

10. After the primer has dried, apply 11 mm {0.43 in} in thickness, 5 mm {0.20 in} in width of sealant using a 

sealant gun. Where it is not applied properly, correctly apply it using a spatula.
