Rules of cleanliness

♦ Thoroughly clean the connection points and their surroundings
before disconnecting.
♦ Open the open lines and connections immediately with a clean
plug, e.g. from the screw plug set for engine - VAS 6122- .
♦ Only install clean parts: remove spare parts from their wrap‐
ping immediately before fitting.
♦ Make sure no dirt gets into the gearbox when the gearbox is
open.
♦ Always replace paper gaskets after disassembly. Completely
remove old gaskets and thoroughly clean sealing surfaces.
♦ Place removed parts on a clean surface and cover them to
prevent them from getting dirty. Use sheeting and paper for
this purpose. Use lint-free cloths!
♦ Carefully cover or close opened components if the repair is not
completed immediately.
♦ Protect electrical plug connections from dirt and moisture and
only connect them when dry.
