>>B<<WINDSHIELD INSTALLATION
1. When replacing the windshield, temporarily set the
windshield against the body, and place a mating mark on the
windshield and body.
CAUTION
• The primer strengthens the adhesive, so be sure to
apply it evenly around the entire circumference. How-
ever, a too thick application will weaken the adhesive.
• Do not touch the coated surface.
• Do not apply the primer on the remaining adhesive
because of weakening the adhesive.
2. Soak a sponge in the primer, and apply evenly to the
windshield and the body in the specified places.
3. Allow the windshield to dry for at least three minutes after
applying primer.
4. Fill a sealant gun with adhesive. Then apply the adhesive
evenly around the windshield within 30 minutes after
applying the primer.
NOTE: Cut the tip of the sealant gun nozzle into a V shape
to simplify adhesive application.
5. Align the mating marks on the windshield and the body, and
lightly press the windshield evenly so that it adheres
completely.
6. Use a spatula or similar tool to remove any excessive
adhesive. Clean the surface with 3M
AAD Part number
8906 or equivalent. Avoid moving the vehicle until the
adhesive sets.
CAUTION
• Do not move the vehicle unless absolutely necessary.
• When testing for water leakage, do not apply strong
water pressure.
7. Wait 30 minutes or more, and then test for water leakage.
