CORROSION PREVENTION AND SEALING
CORROSION PREVENTION 77-4-7
The checks described above are intended to be visual only. It is not intended that the operator should remove trim
panels, finishers, rubbing strips or sound-deadening materials when checking the vehicle for corrosion and paint
damage.
With the vehicle on a lift, and using an inspection or spot lamp, visually check for the following:
lCorrosion damage and damaged paintwork, condition of underbody sealer on front and rear lower panels, sills
and wheel arches;
lDamage to underbody sealer. Corrosion in areas adjacent to suspension mountings and fuel tank fixings.
NOTE: The presence of small blisters in the underbody sealer is acceptable, providing they do not expose bare metal.
Pay special attention to signs of damage caused to panels or corrosion protection material by incorrect jack
positioning.
WARNING: It is essential to follow the correct jacking and lifting procedures.
With the vehicle lowered, visually check for evidence of damage and corrosion on all visible painted areas, in
particular the following:
lFront edge of bonnet;
lVisible flanges in engine compartment;
lLower body and door panels.
Rectify any bodywork damage or evidence of corrosion found during inspection as soon as is practicable, both to
minimise the extent of the damage and to ensure the long term effectiveness of the factory-applied corrosion
prevention treatment. Where the cost of rectification work is the owner's responsibility, the Dealer must advise the
owner and endorse the relevant documentation accordingly.
Where corrosion has become evident and is emanating from beneath a removable component (e.g. trim panel,
window glass, seat etc.), remove the component as required to permit effective rectification.
Underbody protection repairs
Whenever body repairs are carried out, ensure that full sealing and corrosion protection treatments are reinstated.
This applies both to the damaged areas and also to areas where protection has been indirectly impaired, as a result
either of accident damage or repair operations.
Remove corrosion protection from the damaged area before straightening or panel beating. This applies in particular
to panels coated with wax, PVC underbody sealer, sound deadening pads etc.
WARNING: DO NOT use oxy-acetylene gas equipment to remove corrosion prevention materials. Large
volumes of fumes and gases are liberated by these materials when they burn.
NOTE: Equipment for the removal of tough anti-corrosion sealers offers varying degrees of speed and effectiveness.
The compressed air-operated scraper (NOT an air chisel) offers a relatively quiet mechanical method using an
extremely rapid reciprocating action. Move the operating end of the tool along the work surface to remove the material.
The most common method of removal is by means of a hot air blower with integral scraper.
Another tool, and one of the most efficient methods, is the rapid-cutting 'hot knife'. This tool uses a wide blade and is
quick and versatile, able to be used easily in profiled sections where access is otherwise difficult.
Use the following procedure when repairing underbody coatings:
1Remove existing underbody coatings
2After panel repair, clean the affected area with a solvent wipe, and treat bare metal with an etch phosphate
material
3Re-prime the affected area
CAUTION: DO NOT, under any circumstances, apply underbody sealer directly to bare metal surfaces.
4Replace all heat-fusible plugs which have been disturbed. Where such plugs are not available use rubber
grommets of equivalent size, ensuring that they are embedded in sealer
5Mask off all mounting faces from which mechanical components, hoses and pipe clips, have been removed.
Underbody sealer must be applied before such components are refitted
6Brush sealer into all exposed seams
7Spray the affected area with an approved service underbody sealer
8Remove masking from component mounting faces, and touch-in where necessary. Allow adequate drying time
before applying underbody wax

The heater assembly heats and distributes air as directed by selections made on the control panel. The assembly is
installed on the vehicle centre-line, between the fascia and the engine bulkhead. The heater assembly consists of a
casing, formed from a series of plastic moldings, which contains a heater matrix and control flaps. Internal passages
integrated into the casing guide the air through the casing and separate it into two flows, one for the LH outlets and
one for the RH outlets. Two drain outlets at the bottom of the casing connect to overboard drain tubes installed in the
sides of the transmission tunnel.
Heater matrix
The heater matrix provides the heat source to warm the air being supplied to the distribution outlets. The heater matrix
is an aluminium two pass, fin and tube heat exchanger, installed in the RH side of the casing. Two aluminium tubes
attached to the heater matrix extend through the engine bulkhead to connect the heater assembly to the engine
coolant system. When the engine is running, coolant is constantly circulated through the heater matrix by the engine
coolant pump. On diesel models, the coolant flow is assisted by an electric pump while the FBH system is active.

80-6DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Control flaps
Control flaps are installed in the heater assembly to control the temperature and distribution of air. Blend flaps control
the temperature and distribution flaps control the distribution.

Blend flaps:Two sets of three blend flaps, one LH and one RH, regulate the flow of air through the heater matrix and
a heater matrix bypass, to control the temperature of the air leaving the heater assembly. The two sets of blend flaps
operate independently to allow different temperatures to be set for the LH and RH outlets.
Each blend flap is attached to a spindle. The end of each spindle extends through the side of the heater casing and
is attached to a common lever mechanism on the related side of the casing. A control cable is installed between the
lever mechanism and the related temperature knob on the control panel. When the flow is split between the bypass
and the heater matrix, the two flows mix downstream of the heater matrix to produce an even air temperature at the
individual outlets.
Distribution flaps: Separate distribution flaps are installed to control the flow of air to the footwells, windscreen/side
windows and the LH and RH face level outlets. The distribution flaps are attached to spindles that extend through the
RH side of the heater casing and are attached to a common lever mechanism. A control cable is installed between
the lever mechanism and the distribution knob on the control panel.
