  3. Press the protector and apply pressure to the double-sided adhesive tape.
  1. Rotate the plate nuts by hand in the direction of the arrow shown in the figure until they are seated.
    CAUTION:
    • After removing the dashboard, the plate nuts of the member junctions will have loosened. If the dashboard is installed with the plate nuts loosened, the plate nuts may contact the vehicle body, causing a dent or damage to the coating film, and the dashboard installation will be difficult. Before inserting the dashboard into the cabin, seat the plate nuts of the member junctions.
    • If the plate nuts are tightened excessively, the plate nuts may not move when installing the bolts, resulting in damage to the dashboard frame and the vehicle body. After seating the plate nuts, verify that they can be loosened by hand.
    NOTE:
    • If the plate nuts cannot be rotated by hand, loosen the plate nuts using a hexagonal wrench.

  2. Verify that the member junction tabs are engaged to the dashboard.
    CAUTION:
    • After inserting the dashboard into the cabin, verify that the member junctions are engaged with the dashboard. Otherwise, the member junction may become disengaged from the dashboard frame.
