    • Touching heated parts for a long time may result in burns.

    Standard:
    Item Temperature
    Rear spoiler sub-assembly 20 to 30°C (68 to 86°F)

    Note

    Do not heat the rear spoiler sub-assembly excessively.


    1. Clean the No. 4 moulding tape installation surface with a non-residue solvent.

    2. Apply primer to the No. 4 moulding tape installation area on the rear spoiler sub-assembly.

      Note

      Apply primer evenly so that there are no uncoated areas.

    3. Remove the peeling paper on a new No. 4 moulding tape while making sure not to touch the adhesive surface.
