When changing a bonded window, use
82 93 714 Kit, window removal tool
. If the window is so damaged that it is not possible to affix the suction cups, use
30 14 099 Cutting wire handles
and with the help of a colleague, saw out the window.

12. |
Hook on the ends of the wire to the screwdriver and bend the ends to stop them slipping.
|
13. |
Pull the screwdriver back through the glued joint into the cabin. Pull in the wires about 0.7 m.
|
14. |
Unhook the cutting wires from the screwdriver. Straighten the ends of the wire to an obtuse angle. Remove the screwdriver from the car.

To fit |
Important | ||
Betaseal X 2500 cures in 1 hour at 23°C and 50% relative humidity. To avoid the glass from coming loose or its position changing during the curing time, the car must not be subjected to jolts or blows. The doors, tailgate and bonnet must not be shut. The car must not be rocked or rolled. Neither must the glass be pressed in while the adhesive is curing. |
||
Use 32 025 039 Adhesive kit, window glass for bonding windows. To avoid mixing up the cleaner and primer, the tubes are different colours:
Betaclean 3300 (glass cleaner) | One wet and one dry cleaning cloth |
Betawipe 4001 (for plastic glass) | Blue |
Betaprime 5061 (primer, glass and paintwork) | Green |
The car must be standing on all four wheels on a level surface when the window is fitted in place. To ensure the best possible results, it is extremely important for all surfaces that have been cleaned or primed to be kept free from dust and dirt while work is in progress. The same goes for the adhesive when it has been applied. Once work has been started it should therefore be continued without interruption until the window has been fitted and the adhesive hardened. The adhesive begins to harden as soon as the contents of both tubes are mixed. The window must therefore be fitted into place within 5 minutes from the time that application of the bead of adhesive was first begun. Note that points 8-16 must without exception be carried out in the given order to ensure satisfactory results with maximum adhesion.
2. |
Remove loose particles, dirt and residue from plastic strip on the metal flange with a vacuum cleaner.
|
3. |
Repair any damage to the paintwork.
|
• |
Scrape off any loose flakes of paint with a knife.
|
• |
Clean with Terosan Cleaner FL.
|
• |
Apply primer. Use Standox 1K Füllprimer.
|
• |
Apply the finish coat.
|
4. |
If there is no old adhesive, or if the adhesive is not intact, primer must be applied to the surfaces with which the adhesive will be in contact. Use Betaprime 5061
(green)
on any touched-up surfaces. Do not use body primer on old, well-cohered adhesive.
|
5. |
Close the tailgate. Have the remote control in readiness. Make also sure the moulding and moulding screws are easily accessible. When the window is in place, the moulding must be refitted quickly so the window can be adjusted to suit the moulding.
|
6. |
Fit the lifting handles to the outside of the window and place the window inside up on a workstand.
|
7. |
Refit the seal on the wiper motor.
|
8. |
Carefully wash the edges of the window with Betaclean 3300. Carefully wipe the edges using the wet cleaning cloth. Dry with the dry cleaning cloth provided in the adhesive kit. Avoid touching the cleaned surface.
|
9. |
Apply Betaprime 5061
(green cap)
to the cleaned surface. Allow the primer to dry for 10 minutes.
|
10. |
Avoid touching the primed surface.
|

Apply the adhesive as follows:
|
• |
Cut off the tip of the glue cartridge nozzle to obtain a suitable shape.
