	Remove
1	Open side window in driver door.	So that the freshly glued in stationary front element (1) of the panoramic sliding sunroof is not pressed outwards due to the air pressure when the doors are closed.
2	Determine gap dimension (A) between the front stationary element (1) and the flexible glass panel (3) and note down.	Feeler gauge	Fig 1
3	Determine gap dimension (B) between the front stationary element (1) and the windshield (6) and note down.	Feeler gauge	Fig 1
4	Open flexible glass panel (3) of the panoramic roof.
5	Remove left and right roof railing.	Model 243, 247.6/7 with code 413 (Panoramic sliding sunroof/glass roof) with code 720 (Roof railing)	AR77.40-P-5000MFX
6	Remove drip rails (2).	Model 243 with code 413 (Panoramic sliding sunroof/glass roof)	AR88.80-P-4000EQA

7	Press seal (arrow) of the windshield (6) toward the front and fix in place with fabric tape.	Adhesive fabric tape	*BR00.45-Z-1062-02A
8	Mask off adjacent paint surfaces with fabric tape.	Adhesive fabric tape	*BR00.45-Z-1062-02A
9	Route cutting wire (4) as shown under the front stationary element (1).
10	Cut through adhesive beads (5) in the direction of the arrow.	Additionally cover body with cloth. Otherwise the paint on the body can be damaged. Protect front stationary element (1) from being cut into by cutting wire (4) using the shields . Otherwise the front stationary element (1) must be replaced. Aid of helper required.
11	Remove front stationary element (1).	Set of shields	Fig 2
	Install
12	Prepare front stationary element (1) for installation.		AR77.21-P-0803-02MFB
		Before starting work, all component parts, materials, and tools must be prepared for the installation of the front stationary element (1). Otherwise it may not be possible to maintain permissible processing and joining times. Only use the repair kit approved by the manufacturer from the replacement part system. Otherwise, the front stationary element (1) and the panorama roof frame will have adhesion problems. Commercially available devices/tools Wet/dry vacuum cleaner
13	Prepare panoramic sliding sunroof frame.		AR77.21-P-0803-03MFB
		Only use the repair kit approved by the manufacturer from the replacement part system. Otherwise, the front stationary element (1) and the panorama roof frame will have adhesion problems. Commercially available devices/tools Wet/dry vacuum cleaner
14	Apply adhesive material for the front stationary element (1).		AR77.21-P-0803-04MFB

		Apply adhesive material as quickly as possible and position front stationary element (1) on the panoramic sliding sunroof frame and fix it in place. Otherwise the strength of the adhesive connection can be impaired and proper adhesion of the adhesive material is not ensured. Only use the repair kit approved by the manufacturer from the replacement part system. Otherwise, the front stationary element (1) and the panorama roof frame will have adhesion problems.

15	Position front stationary element (1) on the panoramic sliding sunroof frame and align.	The vehicle must not be driven for at least 3 hours after gluing in the front stationary element (1). Otherwise the strength of the adhesive connection can be impaired and proper adhesion of the adhesive material is not ensured. Observe the distances of the front stationary element (1) determined before removal in relation to its detachable parts. Center front stationary element (1) between side roof panelings. Aid of helper required.	AR77.21-P-0803-05MFB

19	Close flexible glass panel (3) of the panoramic roof.
	Check
20	Before initially driving the vehicle, check strength of adhesively bonded connection by means of the produced reference adhesive bead.	The vehicle must not be driven for at least 3 hours after gluing in the front stationary element (1). Otherwise the strength of the adhesive connection can be impaired and proper adhesion of the adhesive material is not ensured.
21	After the adhesively bonded connection is completely cured, remove weights for weighing down the front stationary element (1).	Do not remove weights before reference adhesive bead is completely cured. Otherwise the strength of the adhesive connection can be impaired and proper adhesion of the adhesive material is not ensured.
22	Normalize panoramic sliding sunroof with diagnostic system and perform teach-in run for automatic reversing function.
