12.1 Warning and precaution

12.1.1 Warning and precaution

Warning for collision cutting

Warning!

Only cut in the recommended part. Failure to do so may compromise the structural integrity of the vehicle and
cause personal injury if the vehicle is in a collision.

Warning for window crack

Warning!

If part of glass for vehicle window is cracked but still intact, crisscross the glass for vehicle window with masking
tape in order to reduce the risk of damage or personal injury.

Glass and Sheet Metal Handling Warning

Warning!

When handling any types of glass or metal plate with sharp edges or burrs, please wear permissive safety goggles
and gloves to reduce the personal injury risk.

Warning relating to safety goggles and compressed air

Warning!

Wear the safety goggles in the course of the use of the compressor air in order to avoid from damaging eyes.

Precautions of dismantling external logo

Notes:

Dismantle the brand plate/name plate with a plastic flat blade tool to avoid damaging the paint.

Important precaution on Machined Surface Damage

Notes:

Be sure not to carve, scratch or damage the sealing surface. The sealing surface is a machined surface. Damage to
the machined surface can cause leakage.

Important precaution on Sealant

Notes:

Do not have the sealant which hardens at room temperature enter the tapped blind hole. RTV sealant that is
allowed to enter a blind threaded hole can cause hydraulic lock of the fastener when the fastener is tightened.
Hydraulic lock of a fastener can lead to damage to the fastener and/or the components. Hydraulic lock of a
fastener can also prevent the proper clamping loads to be obtained when the fastener is tightened. Improper
clamping loads can prevent proper sealing of the components allowing leakage to occur. Preventing proper
fastener tightening can allow the components to loosen or separate leading to extensive engine damage.

Important precaution on Window Edge Damage

Notes:

Avoid an impacting object from damaging the window due to the exposed edge. The window must be 1mm
(0.025in) lower than the metal plate surface to avoid the window from being damaged.
