Notes on the installation of partly detached door film

Door films which have become completely detached or are torn must always be replaced.

In the case of door films which have become partly detached at the top and side, the detached films must be reattached using a butyl sealing cord.

Beside the original point of attachment, attach a butyl cord -2- to the area where the door film -1- is detached, and firmly affix.
