Minimum curing period

WARNING
Special standards must be adhered to when replacing bonded
windows. One of these standards is, for example, that a freshly
bonded windscreen must comply with the safety requirements,
even in an accident, following the minimum prescribed curing
period.
The minimum curing period for 2K adhesive -DA 004 600 A2- is
three hours for all windows.
Minimum curing period is the time from bonding the window until
vehicle may be used. During this time, the vehicle must stand on
a level surface at room temperature (at least 15 °C).
WARNING
Vehicle is safe to use only after the curing period is completed.
