• Apply corrosion protection to the hinges and bolts after assembling or adjusting.






Adjusting Gap Dimensions

For correct gap dimension adjustment, the fasteners - 2 - and - 5 - on the B-pillar must be loosened.

- For the fasteners - 2 -, the B-pillar lower trim must be removed.

Flush Adjustment

The bolts - 3 - must be loosened in order to adjust the flush dimensions correctly.

For this, the door adjusting wrench (3320) with the bit insert must be used.

• Other measures, such as aligning the door upward, are not effective. Excess pressure thereafter will again cause the door to sag.

• Ignore item - 4 -.
