Finish Damage
Any stone chips, fractures or deep scratches in the finish
should be repaired promptly. Bare metal will corrode quickly
and may develop into a major repair expense. Minor chips
and scratches can be repaired with touch-up materials. Larger
areas of finish damage can be corrected in your Distributor’s
body and paint shop.
Underbody Maintenance
Corrosive materials used for ice and snow removal and dust
control can accumulate on the underbody. If these materi-
als are not removed, accelerated corrosion (rust) can occur
on underbody parts such as the fuel lines, frame, floor pan,
and the exhaust system even though they have been pro-
vided with corrosion protection. At least every spring, flush
these materials from the underbody with plain water. Take
care to clean any area where mud and other debris can
accumulate.
Sediment packed in closed areas of the frame should be
loosened before being flushed. If desired, your Ssangyong
Distributor can do this service for you.
Washing the Bumper
Wash off any dirty objects on the bumper with a sponge.
When engine oil or any other oils are splashed on the
bumper, use soapy water to wipe them out. Do not use an
abrasive wax or brush. Otherwise, the bumper or the body
of the vehicle may be damaged.
• When the engine is washed, fuel, grease or oil residues are washed
off. Therefore you should use only a filling station or a Ssangyong
Distributor who has oil separator equipment in the car wash bay.
• Used engine oil, brake fluid, transmission fluid, antifreeze,
batteries, and tires should be disposed by using the local au-
thorized waste disposal facilities, or have them disposed of by
the vendor who is under a statutory obligation to do so when
you replace them.
• None of these items should be placed in the household recy-
cling bins or poured into the sewage system.
• Everyone should be concerned about environmental protection.
• Help by doing your share.
• When a strong multi-purpose, acid, or alkaline detergent is used
to clean up the surface of the painted body, side mirrors,
windshield, plastic moldings or leather, changes, fading of col-
ors or rusting can happen.
• When the windshield is cleaned with an oil-contained or waxed
towel, strange sounds and vibrations may occur on the wind-
shield surface when the wipers are operating. Also, decreased
visibility, reflection at night, or poor removal of water on the wind-
shield may happen. Do not clean the windshield with an oil-con-
tained or waxed towel.
• An abrasive detergent may damage the painted surface of your
vehicle, including the bumper. Do not buff or polish your vehicle
with an abrasive detergent.
• An acid or alkaline detergent may damage the painted surface
of the aluminum or alloyed wheels.
• When chemical products are used to clean up the interior, the
chemical products may change some colors or distort the shape
of some interior parts.
When cleaning up interior parts, do not use chemical products
such as acetone, enamel or bleach.
