Removing the side window
Release the side window from the clamping jaws of the rear power window with the side-panel lining and rear side window inner seal removed and the side window extended. To do this press the micro-switch in the windscreen frame and actuate the rocker switch at the same time until the side window is completely extended.
Lift the side window upward out of the rear side section slot.

Adjusting the side window angle in the vehicle's longitudinal direction

Moving the side window into the clamping jaws on the receiving rollers equalizes the angle of the side window to the door window. The window bottom edge must lie against the receiving rollers in the clamping jaws. Adjust the side window according to the contour of the door window and the gap E = 9 mm. Tighten the clamping jaws after completing the adjustment.
Tightening torque: 8.5 ± 1.5 Nm

Adjusting the lower stop of the power window regulator

It is possible to adjust the height of both lower stops.
However, this should only be adjusted synchronously.
The adjustment is only possible when the side window is lowered.
