Adjustment
Adjusting the position of the lock retainer
To adjust, loosen the screws and move the lock retainer in the desired direction.
1. Before adjusting, check for play in the door hinge axes. Open the door fully and rock the door up and down without rocking the body. If the play in the hinges exceeds 1.6 mm, the hinges should be replaced.
2. The door is adjusted relative to the body by moving the door with the hinge bolts to the body or to the door loosened. The doors are considered adjusted if the upper edge of the door is parallel to the edge of the roof of the body, the surface of the front door is flush with the wing, the surface of the rear door is flush with the rear wing, and the lower edges of the doors coincide with the profile of the threshold. If the adjustment of the doors is not achieved by moving in the hinges, then spacers should be placed between the hinges and the body (door) (available for sale).
3. Remove the inner door panel and water shield.
4. To adjust the closed door position, trace the outline of the latch and make sure that the latch bolt engages the center of the latch. If not, adjust by moving the latch up and down.
5. To adjust the latch laterally, make sure the door is flush with the adjacent body panels (front or rear wing). Otherwise, move the latch horizontally so that the door is flush with the adjacent body panels and locks freely.
