Removing and Installing/Replacing Interior Rearview Mirror (with Full Foot)

51 16 060 - Removing and installing/replacing interior rearview mirror (with full foot)





Important!
Work may only be carried out at a room/object temperature of 18 ... 28 °C.
If this cannot be guaranteed (cold/hot countries), it is necessary to equalize the temperature of the windshield, mirror foot and rearview mirror (e.g. car left to stand indoors or in the shade for at least 30 minutes).





Important!
To avoid breaking windshield:
Snap out (press) rearview mirror only in direction of travel towards windshield.
Do not under any circumstances twist the mirror foot when removing.
Twisting the mirror off the mirror mount will damage the rear catch.
If the rear catch is damaged, the mirror will be loose when installed and must be replaced.





Important!
Risk of damage!
Do not pull off rearview mirror (1) from windshield against direction of travel and or snap out by turning.

Snap out interior mirror (1) from mirror mount (2) towards front with increasing pressure (not abruptly) and remove.





Installation Note:
1. - Twist mirror foot by approx. 45° and fit to mirror mount.

2. - Turn mirror foot until it engages on mirror base.
