CORROSION PROTECTION S35-D-110201-F44B796D-CF5C-45AD-A73C-62C26924B2AF SEAT BELTS S35-D-110201-C770D13E-C383-46EE-A06C-46D1543B0A62 The seat belts can be cleaned by wiping them with a sponge dampened in a mild soap solution. Allow the belts to dry completely in the shade before using them. See "Seat belts" in the "1. Safety - Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system" section. MOST COMMON FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO VEHICLE CORROSION S35-D-110201-445B63E4-1AAA-434C-9044-B3020018D404 . The accumulation of moisture-retaining dirt and debris in body panel sections, cavities, and other areas. Damage to paint and other protective coatings caused by gravel and stone chips or minor traffic accidents. Temperature S35-D-110201-661832A3-A326-4D3F-8EC4-669D839F9197 A temperature increase will accelerate the rate of corrosion to those parts which are not well ventilated. . Air pollution S35-D-110201-7FC55DDC-7BED-4DB0-B4B7-1A27762C50A3 Industrial pollution, the presence of salt in the air in coastal areas, or heavy road salt use will accelerate the corrosion process. Road salt will also accelerate the disintegration of paint surfaces. WARNING Do not allow wet seat belts to roll up in the retractor. NEVER use bleach, dye, or chemical solvents to clean the seat belts, since these materials may severely weaken the seat belt webbing. ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS INFLUENCE THE RATE OF CORROSION S35-D-110201-69B386BA-615F-4B49-A4C8-910975B562E2 Moisture S35-D-110201-B65B2839-2AB8-424B-AB21-FD3BD4D02E89 Accumulation of sand, dirt and water on the vehicle body underside can accelerate corrosion. Wet floor coverings will not dry completely inside the vehicle, and should be removed for drying to avoid floor panel corrosion. TO PROTECT YOUR VEHICLE FROM CORROSION S35-D-110201-A8AB3EBD-C334-46B0-9E9A-F382191A3E60 ...Wash and wax your vehicle often to keep the vehicle clean. Always check for minor damage to the paint and repair it as soon as possible. Keep drain holes at the bottom of the doors open to avoid water accumulation. Check the underbody for accumulation of sand, dirt or salt. If present, wash with water as soon as possible. RelativeS35-D-110201-A7199B6A-97DE-4938-84D8-1900B1E54AB3 humidity Corrosion will be accelerated in areas of high relative humidity, especially those areas where the temperatures stay above freezing where atmospheric pollution exists, or where road salt is used. CAUTION . NEVER remove dirt, sand or other debris from the passenger compartment by washing it out with a hose. 7-6 Appearance and care

Appearance and care
SEAT BELTS
S35-D-110201-C770D13E-C383-46EE-A06C-46D1543B0A62
The seat belts can be cleaned by wiping them
with
a
sponge
dampened
in
a
mild
soap
solution. Allow the belts to dry completely in
the shade before using them.
See “Seat belts” in the “1. Safety — Seats, seat
belts and supplemental restraint system” sec-
tion.
WARNING
Do not allow wet seat belts to roll up in
the retractor. NEVER use bleach, dye, or
chemical
solvents
to
clean
the
seat
belts, since these materials
may se-
verely weaken the seat belt webbing.

MOST COMMON FACTORS CONTRI-
BUTING TO VEHICLE CORROSION
S35-D-110201-445B63E4-1AAA-434C-9044-B3020018D404
.
The accumulation of moisture-retaining dirt
and debris in body panel sections, cavities,
and other areas.
.
Damage to paint and other protective coat-
ings caused by gravel and stone chips or
minor traffic accidents.
ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS INFLU-
ENCE THE RATE OF CORROSION
S35-D-110201-69B386BA-615F-4B49-A4C8-910975B562E2
Moisture
S35-D-110201-B65B2839-2AB8-424B-AB21-FD3BD4D02E89
Accumulation of sand, dirt and water on the
vehicle body underside can accelerate corro-
sion. Wet floor coverings will not dry completely
inside the vehicle, and should be removed for
drying to avoid floor panel corrosion.
Relative humidity
S35-D-110201-A7199B6A-97DE-4938-84D8-1900B1E54AB3
Corrosion will be accelerated in areas of high
relative humidity, especially those areas where
the
temperatures
stay
above
freezing
where
atmospheric pollution exists, or where road salt
is used.
Temperature
S35-D-110201-661832A3-A326-4D3F-8EC4-669D839F9197
A temperature increase will accelerate the rate
of corrosion to those parts which are not well
ventilated.
Air pollution
S35-D-110201-7FC55DDC-7BED-4DB0-B4B7-1A27762C50A3
Industrial pollution, the presence of salt in the air
in coastal areas, or heavy road salt use will
accelerate the corrosion process. Road salt will
also
accelerate
the
disintegration
of
paint
surfaces.
TO PROTECT YOUR VEHICLE FROM
CORROSION

.
Wash and wax your vehicle often to keep the
vehicle clean.
.
Always check for minor damage to the paint
and repair it as soon as possible.
.
Keep drain holes at the bottom of the doors
open to avoid water accumulation.
.
Check the underbody for accumulation of
sand, dirt or salt. If present, wash with water
as soon as possible.
CAUTION
.
NEVER remove dirt, sand or other
debris from the passenger compart-
ment by washing it out with a hose.
