Notes:
- The height of the front of the roof panel is altered by turning adjusting nuts -A-.

- Adjusting nuts -A- must never be set to a specific torque or be "securely" tightened.

- Before adjusting, coat adjusting nuts -A- with D 000 600.

Loosely thread adjusting nuts -A- onto threaded studs. DO NOT tighten

Screw nuts -B- onto threaded studs.

Tightening torque: 6 Nm (53 in. lb.)

Turn adjusting nuts -A- (front edge of roof panel will move downward) to adjust to "0 - 1 mm" dimension as specified.

Rear Height Adjustment






Bolts -C- and -D- loosened


Press roof panel upward to adjust to "0 + 1 mm".

First tighten bolts -D-, then tighten bolts -C-.
