2011 Nissan-Datsun Leaf SLFACTORY OEM SERVICE PROCEDURE
Removal and Installation: Installation
- Use a genuine Nissan Urethane Adhesive Kit (if available) or an equivalent and follow the instructions provided with it.
- Open a door window while the urethane adhesive is curing. This prevents the glass from being forced out by passenger room air pressure when all door windows are closed.
- Inform the customer that the vehicle should remain stationary until the urethane adhesive is completely cured (approximately 24 hours). Curing time varies with temperature and humidity.
WARNING:
- Keep heat and open flames away as primers and adhesive are flammable.
- The materials contained in the kit are harmful if swallowed, and may irritate skin and eyes. Never let them come in contact with the skin and eyes.
- Use in an open, well ventilated location. Never breathe the vapors. They may be harmful if inhaled. Move immediately to an area with fresh air if affected by vapor inhalation.
- Driving the vehicle before the urethane adhesive is completely cured may affect the performance of the opera window glass in an accident.
