Necessary preliminary tasks:
- Remove center console . See REMOVING AND INSTALLING STORAGE COMPARTMENT
Unfasten plug connection (1) and disconnect.
Detach Bluetooth antenna (2) in direction of arrow from rear compartment ventilation duct (3).
When replacing dual-lock tape:
- Clean bonding surfaces.
- Stick on dual-lock tape and press down firmly with fingers for at least 2 secs. (ambient temperature at least 18 °C).
- Fit Bluetooth antenna on rear-compartment ventilation duct only after a minimum period 30 minutes (strain-free dwell time).
- Subjecting the bond to premature load will result in a loss of adhesion and thus a defective bond => use new dual-lock tape.
Installation:
Fit Bluetooth antenna (1) during installation so that dual-lock tapes (2) and (3) coincide exactly.
