– Press complete adhesive area of seal -3- on door -1- all around

using roller -3356- .

– The seal is pushed aside -arrow a- when doing this so that the

roller -3356- runs directly over the contact surface of the seal.

The roller can only apply the necessary force -arrow B- to the

adhesive surface -2- when procedure described above is followed

correctly.
– If the seal is too long: cut seal to required length and press butt

joints on well.

– If the seal -3- comes loose in small areas again, press seal on

well again using roller -3356- .

Note

The door must not be closed for a period of 2 hours to ensure the door outer seal does not move or loosen
