Maintenance
When cleaning underneath the car,     Keep paint and  trim in  good con-     Interior care
give   particular   attention   to   the     dition
components under the fenders and
other  areas  that are  hidden  from
view. Do a thorough job; just damp-
ening the accumulated  mud rather
than washing  it away  will acceler-
ate corrosion rather than prevent it.
Water  under   high  pressure   and
steam  are particularly  effective  in
removing  accumulated   mud  and
corrosive materials.
Interior general precautions
Scratches   or   chips   in  the   finish
should  be  covered  with  "touch-up"
paint as  soon as possible  to reduce
the  possibility  of  corrosion.  If  bare
metal is  showing through, the atten-
tion  of  a  qualified  body  and   paint
shop is recommended.
Prevent chemicals such as  perfume,
cosmetic oil, sun cream, hand clean-
er, and air freshener from  contacting
the interior  parts because  they may
cause  damage   or  discoloration.  If
they  do  contact   the  interior  parts,
wipe  them off  immediately. See  the
instructions  for   the  proper  way  to
Bird  droppings :  Bird droppings  are     clean vinyl.
highly  corrosive  and   may  damage
When cleaning  lower door panels,
rocker panels and frame members,
be  sure that  drain  holes are  kept
open so that  moisture can escape
and not be trapped inside to accel-
erate corrosion.
painted surfaces in  just a few hours.
Always  remove   bird  droppings   as
soon as possible.
CAUTION
Never  allow water  or  other liq-
uids  to  come   in  contact  with

compo-
Don't neglect the interior
nents inside  the vehicle as  this
may damage them.
Moisture can  collect under  the floor
mats and  carpeting  to cause  corro-
sion. Check under  the mats  periodi-
cally to be  sure the carpeting  is dry.
Use particular care if you carry  fertil-
izers,  cleaning  materials  or  chemi-
cals in the car.
Keep your garage dry
Don't park your car  in a damp, poor-
ly  ventilated garage. This  creates  a
favorable environment  for corrosion.
This is  particularly  true if  you  wash
your car in the garage  or drive it into
the garage when it is still wet or  cov-
ered with  snow, ice  or mud. Even  a
heated garage can contribute to cor-
rosion unless  it is  well ventilated  so
moisture is dispersed.
These   should  be   carried   only  in
proper  containers and  any  spills or
leaks should be  cleaned up, flushed
with   clean   water  and   thoroughly
dried.
