Rear lid seal

During production, a sealant is applied to the rear lid seals, the

seal is then placed on the rear lid flange and rolled on.

Note

When seals are removed, the sealant will spread to the inside

of the seal and the flanks will be bent out slightly. If the seal is

then refitted, a leak-free tight seal is not guaranteed.

Therefore each seal which is removed completely should be

replaced by a so-called “tap-on” seal.

If a seal has been partially removed, squeeze sides of seal

together before refitting.
