7. Removing and replacing the MIP (Mold
In Place) gasket
The SoundTouchâ„¢ Mobile system uses a
MIP (Mold In Place) gasket that acoustically
seals the front and rear enclosure assem-
blies. See below.
This MIP gasket cannot be recreated by the
service group. If the gasket is damaged, it will
need to be fully removed and replaced with
gasket strips. These strips are similar to
double sided tape.
Note: The gasket only needs to be replaced
if damaged or it can no longer acoustically
seal the front and rear enclosures.

aged by separating it from the enclosure.

Ensure they are placed back in to the original
locations.
