Description

1

Place the GP unit on a flat, level surface, with the display face pointing down.

Remove the gasket from the GP unit.

Attach the new gasket to the GP unit. Position the gasket in the installation
groove so that the gasket seam is at the bottom of the GP unit. First, insert the
gasket into the 4 corners, in the order shown in the image below. Then, insert
the rest of the gasket into the installation groove.

The center of the GP unit bezel’s installation groove is ribbed. Make sure
you insert the gasket all the way in without catching the ribbed sections.

When using a tool to insert the gasket, make sure the tool does not catch
the rubber gasket and cause a tear.
