51 31... Notes on window bonding: General

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2014 BMW X6, 2013 BMW X6, 2012 BMW X6, 2011 BMW X6, and 2010 BMW X6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The vehicle can be towed away or driven without a windscreen, rear window and side window.

The windscreen, rear window and side windows are glued to the body. This bonding will increase the torsional rigidity of the vehicle. To obtain perfect bonding, comply with the installation procedure described in the following.

The adhesive must be applied at room temperatures > 15°C to avoid negatively affecting the bonded connection.
Adjust the component and interior temperature accordingly.
A relative humidity of < 30% significantly slows hardening.
The window glass must be secured against slipping with yellow plastic adhesive tape after being installed. The paint must be completely hardened after painting work.
Always apply the adhesive in such a way as to achieve tension-free bonding!
