5.1.6.1 Replacing the door glass gasket
The gasket must be centred on the edge of the glass. To do this easily, peel back a section of the paper
covering the adhesive and place the gasket on a table with the adhesive side up. Stick the end of the gasket
to the middle of one edge, then press the edge of the glass down onto the gasket, taking care that it is
perfectly centred on the gasket. Peel off more of the backing and rotate the glass and press the next section
onto the gasket. Do not stretch the gasket as you place it. Continue until you get to the start and trim the
gasket to length. Now pinch the gasket to the glass in a U shape, all around the glass. Reinstall the glass,
being careful to centre the glass carefully in the door. Do not over-tighten the screws. Note that the two
main causes of broken door glass are uneven placement in the door and over-tightening of retaining
screws.
