General information on handling rubber seal profiles
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 BMW 750xi, 2011 BMW 750Lxi, 2010 BMW 750xi, and 2010 BMW 750Lxi. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- If seals reveal partly detached protective film on delivery, they must not be bonded.
- Store seals at 5 °C to 40 °C.
- If, during the handling, the protective film has come off before bonding, it can still be bonded.
- Bonding at room and object temperature 25° ± 5° C. Temperatures between 40 and 50 °C significantly increase initial adhesion.
- Seals, which are subjected to temperatures above 80 °C after bonding, will be very difficult to remove.
- Maximum storage time for replacement: 2 years (expiry date must be indicated on the packaging)
