REMOVAL OF GLASS : Removal, Inspection and Cleaning of Glass
(1) WHEN GRASS IS NOT BROKEN
From the outside, using glass holders, remove the glass from the forward position.
Scrape off old adhesive.
Use alcohol or similar cleaning solvent to clean the glass.
Inspect the glass thoroughly for scratches and dirt.
Remove dam rubber.
(2) WHEN GLASS IS BROKEN
While cutting the sealant with the knife, remove pieces of broken glass.
Small pieces should be completely removed using a vacuum cleaner. NOTE:
Prior to the sealant cutting process, the instrument panel must be covered with a protective covering so as to prevent pieces of broken glass from falling into the defroster duct.
At the time when the glass was broken, some pieces may have entered the defroster duct and heater.
Carefully inspect and remove them, if found.
When removing glass, do not hold only one side. Use glass holders and apply an even force to remove the glass.
