  4. Remove protective foil in increments of 15 to 20 cm starting at one side and firmly press on spoiler (1).

    NOTES When pressing on, press directly on adhesive strips on spoiler (1) to prevent adhesion problems. The maximum adhesive force is reached after approx. 72 hours at 20 °C! Avoid any contact with moisture (e.g. rain, fog, carwash) within the first 24 hours. Prevent any mechanical stress.

    IMPORTANT Do not remove protective foil all at once. To increase processing reliability when installing spoiler (1), conclude by pressing spoiler (1) down on longitudinal member using a clean cotton rag, starting at one side.

  5. Remove adhesive tape (4) and remaining adhesive tape.
