Insert a new seal and gently connect the plug on the bottom of the control unit - make sure that it is
firmly seated! Carefully place the cover with the control unit. In doing so, make sure that the
conductor lines under the cover do not twist or crease disadvantageously. Screw in all the fastening
screws of the cover and tighten them hand-tight.

Screw in all the screws of the shifting unit and tighten hand-tight.

Tighten the 6 screws of the upper cover with the required torque (24 +/- 4 Nm)
Tighten the screws of the shift unit diagonally with the required torque (110 +/- 10 Nm). Ensure that
the shifting unit and the upper cover sit evenly. Caution: The housing and the cover must not twist or
be under tension.

The further installation is carried out in the reverse order of removal.

After the shifting unit has been completely assembled, an initialisation of the shifting/circuit must be
performed with a suitable diagnostic device.
