GENERAL INFORMATION & ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Read all of Section Band this section before attempting any procedure. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
Do not use hot water, strong soap or harsh chemical
detergents.
Rubber parts should be cleaned with non-abrasive
household cleaner.
Occasional cleaning and waxing with non-abrasive prod­
ucts designed for 'clear coat' automotive finishes will
enhance the appearance and durability of the painted
surfaces.
Corrosive materials used as fertilizers or for dust control
can collect on the underbody of the vehicle. These mate­
rials could cause corrosion of underbody parts. It is rec­
ommended that the underbody be flushed occasionally
with plain water. Thoroughly clean any areas where mud
or other debris can collect. Sediment packed in closed
areas should be loosened to ease its removal, taking
care not to chip or otherwise damage paint.
