CAUTION

Do not use steel wool, abrasive

cleaners, or strong detergents

containing highly alkaline or caustic

agents on chrome-plated or anodized

aluminum parts. This may result in

damage to the protective coating and

cause discoloration or paint

deterioration.

qUnderbody Maintenance

Road chemicals and salt used for ice and

snow remo val and solvents used for dust

control may collec t on the underbo dy. If

not removed, they will speed up rusting

and deterioration of such underbody parts

as fuel lines, frame, floor pan, and exhaust

system, even though these parts may be

coated with anti-corrosive material.

Thoroughly flush the underbody and

wheel housings with lukewarm or cold

water at the end of each winter. Try also

to do this every month.

Pay speci al attention to these areas

because they easily hide mud and dirt. It

will do more harm than good to wet

down the road grim e without removing

it.

The lower edges of doors, rocker panels,

and frame members have drain holes that

should not be clogged. Water trapped

there will cause rusting.

WARNING

Dry off brakes that have become wet

by driving slowly, releasing the

accelerator pedal and lightly applying

the brakes several times until the brake

per formance returns to normal:

Driving with wet brakes is

dangerous. Increased stopping

distance or the vehicle pulling to one

side when braking could result in a

serious accident. Light braking will

indicate whether the brakes have

been affected.

qAluminum Wheel Maintenance

í

A protective coating is provided over the

aluminum wheels. Special care is needed

to protect this coating.

CAUTION

Do not use any detergent other than

mild detergent. Before using any

detergent, verify the ing redients.

Otherwise, the product could discolor

or stai n the aluminum wheels.

NOTE

l

Do not use a wire brush or any abrasive

cleaner, polishing compound, or solvent on

aluminum wheels. They may damage the

coating.

l

Always use a sponge or soft cloth to clean

the wheels.

Rinse the wheels thoroughly with lukewarm

or cold water. Also, be sure to clean the

wheels after driving on dusty or salted

roads to help prevent corrosion.

l

Avoid washing your vehicle in an automatic

car wash that uses high-speed or hard

brushes.

l

If your aluminum wheels lose luster, wax

the wheels.
