Paintwork damage
Rectify minor paintwork damage with
a touch-up pen before rust forms.
Have more extensive damage or rust
areas repaired by a Holden Dealer.
Caution
Do not spill coolant on the
vehicle's exterior surfaces as it
can damage the paint work. If
you do, wash it off immediately.
Underbody
Substances can cause rust under
the vehicle.
• Hose the underbody with clean
water whenever the vehicle is
washed.
• Where the vehicle is exposed
to heavy concentrations of
corrosive materials, inspect and
wash the complete underbody at
least once each year, preferably
after winter exposure.

Interior care

Warning
Many cleaning products are
toxic, flammable or may damage
the interior. When cleaning the
interior, avoid volatile cleaners
such as acetone, lacquer
thinners, enamel reducers, nail
polish removers, or cleaners
such as laundry soaps, bleaches
or reducing agents. Never use
carbon tetrachloride, petrol
or naphtha for any cleaning
purpose. Ensure the vehicle is
well ventilated while using any
cleaners and always follow the
cleaning product manufacturer's
recommendations. Water
based cleaners, rather than
solvent based cleaners, are
recommended.
Steam cleaning of seats is not
recommended.
Interior and upholstery
Only clean the vehicle interior,
including the instrument panel fascia
and panelling, with a dry cloth or
interior cleaner.
The instrument panel should only be
cleaned using a soft damp cloth.
Clean fabric upholstery with a
vacuum cleaner and brush. Remove
stains with an upholstery cleaner.
Clean seat belts with a mild, non-
abrasive soap and lukewarm water.
After washing, thoroughly, sponge
the solution out of the belts.
Caution
Close Velcro fasteners as open
Velcro fasteners on clothing
could damage seat upholstery.
