INSTALLATIONNLBT0023S02+Use a genuine Nissan Urethane Adhesive Kit or equivalent
and follow the instructions furnished with it.
+While the urethane adhesive is curing, open a door win-
dow. This will prevent the glass from being forced out by
passenger compartment air pressure when a door is
closed.
+The molding must be installed securely so that it is in
position and leaves no gap.
+Inform the customer that the vehicle should remain sta-
tionary until the urethane adhesive has completely cured
(preferably 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. Avoid contact
with the skin and eyes.
+Use in an open, well ventilated location. Avoid breathing
the vapors. They can be harmful if inhaled. If affected by
vapor inhalation, immediately move to an area with fresh
air.
+Driving the vehicle before the urethane adhesive has com-
pletely cured may affect the performance of the wind-
shield in case of an accident.
CAUTION:
+Do not use an adhesive which is past its usable term.
Shelf life of this product is limited to six months after the
date of manufacture. Carefully adhere to the expiration or
manufacture date printed on the box.
+Keep primers and adhesive in a cool, dry place. Ideally,
they should be stored in a refrigerator.
