Installing
Minimum Curing Time
WARNING
There are special requirements for replacing bonded front trim.
This includes, for example, that a newly bonded trim piece is
safe for vehicle operation and also in case of an accident after
a specified minimum curing time.
The vehicle is operationally ready only after the minimum cur‐
ing time has elapsed.
Observe the minimum curing time.
The minimum curing time for the one-part adhesive is three hours.
Minimum curing time means the time from when it is bonded to
when the vehicle is put back into use. During this time, the vehicle
must be on a level surface at room temperature (at least 15 °C
(59 °F)).
Installation Instructions
– Apply adhesive all around at a right angle to the front trim.
WARNING
Front trim must be installed within 10 minutes, otherwise bond‐
ing properties of the assembly adhesive will be impaired.
Do not apply adhesive bead too thickly and do not press the
front trim too firmly on to the sunroof frame.
♦ Place the front trim in the opening, center it, and press it in up
to spacer.
Paint Damage, Repairing

guidelines in the “Paint” repair manual.
Adhesive Residue, Cleaning
– Adhesive remover is the recommended cleaning solution. Fol‐
low all safety precautions.
– Clean the painted surface with a dry cloth. Remove any re‐
maining dirt using the adhesive remover.

mately one hour and then peel it off.
