Translation of the segment The translation of the asked segment "Tiroter le contour exter de la fausse vitre" will be: "Apply tape on the external outlines interfaces from the dummy window".

Tiroter means apply Hi!

I got the confirmation from Renault that the term "tiroter" means apply.

Does the text concern construction or design (is it a vehicle it refers to or the virtual model)?
Bourth (X) Mar 14, 2008:
Possibly involves a jiggling action.

Pull away gently by little tugs the external "window" rim or lining is the way I understand it.
chris collister Mar 14, 2008:
Since "exter" is a typo (or abbreviated at best), there is a good possibility that "tiroter" is also a typo. Maybe the rest of the context makes it clearer what the instructions are trying to do.
