Removal Procedure

Removal Procedure
^ Unplug cables (remove rear side trim, rear seat and rear seat backrest)
^ Remove cover for rollover protection system
^ Unclip cover on rear window module
^ Unscrew retaining bracket under cover
^ Remove hydraulic unit (four screws)
^ Loosen six side screws at rear window module (if necessary, mark position beforehand)
^ Unscrew cover for rear window module (nine screws, partly under module)
The complete rear window module can now be removed.

Note: It is sufficient to detach the cover of the rear window module if only the rear window is to be replaced.

Continue as follows:
^ Screw on clamps
^ Disconnect two cables for rear window defogger
^ Lift out rear window
When installing, the rear window must first be placed on the bottom slide and centered. The rear window is then firmly clamped.
The rear window must also be removed beforehand if the electric motor for the rear window drive is to be replaced (refer to repair instructions for details).
Any leaks in the area of the rear window can be rectified by releasing the upper mounting screws of the rear window module and tilting the seal or changing the seal pressure. If this measure is not successful, the rear window must be shifted correspondingly in its clamp mounting.
