51 00... Notes on installing rubber window seals
- Work safety when handling lubricant G14*
- Wear safety goggles, protective gloves and if necessary an apron.
- Do not eat, drink or smoke in the area of processing/application
- Ensure rooms are well ventilated.
- Keep away from heat and ignition sources
- In event of skin contact: Wash areas of skin affected with soap and water immediately, change work clothing which has been fouled with lubricant immediately (keep spare work clothing in reserve)
- In event of eye contact: Rinse eyes immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice
- Observe applicable product safety data sheet (PSDS)
- General notes:
- Use only the BMW-approved lubricant for fitting
- Application only at room and object temperatures between 18 and 25 °C
- Lubricant dries at different rates depending on the quantity, temperature and ventilation and becomes sticky
- Lubricant can only be used for fitting and not for fault elimination (e.g. grating)
- Newly painted parts may only be brought into contact with the lubricant after cooling
- Optimal bonding to the surface is achieved after approx. 48 h. The rubber window seal must not be exposed to mechanical strain beforehand. (car wash, strength test, etc.).
IMPORTANT: To avoid groaning noises, do not use soapy water (low-surface-tension water with washing-up liquid) or lubricant containing silicone. - Auxiliary materials and tools:
- Spirit, cleaning cloth, plastic squeegee, needle
- LUBRICANT G14
- Preparations:
- Heat and remove anti-friction agent residues with a hot air blower or clean new part thoroughly
- Immediately prior to fitting, clean the work area with spirit in order to remove silicone and grease residues
NOTE: Air drying time approx. 1 min: - Assembly:
- Apply a thin coating of lubricant to the rear side of the rubber window seal only
- Perform fitting within 30 min of applying lubricant
- Lubricant dries after fitting and becomes sticky
