INTERIOR TRIM PANELS
The interior trim panels are molded plastic and fasten with
screws or plastic clips.
PRESSURE RELIEF VENT
When all the windows are closed and the ventilation sys-
tem is on, the addition of outside air to the interior of the
vehicle causes a positive pressure within the vehicle. To
relieve the pressure, air is released through a pressure re-
lief vent. The pressure relief vents are located at the rear
quarter of the vehicle, behind the bumper fascia.
FLOOR CONSOLE
The floor console fits over the tunnel in the floor of the ve-
hicle and extends from under the center of the instrument
panel to the rear seat area. The front portion of the consolecontains the cigar lighter and the transaxle shift lever. The
rear portion of the console contains the parking brake le-
ver, a cupholder, a storage compartment, and an ashtray
for the rear seat occupants.
The sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) for the airbag
system and the remote keyless entry module are located
under the console.
FLOOR CARPET
The one–piece floor carpet goes over both the front and
the rear floor pans.
REAR COMPARTMENT SECURITY
COVER (HATCHBACK)

Precautions:
.
1. Before applying an anti–rust agent, thoroughly clean
the areas to be coated with a steam cleaner, etc., and
let dry.
.
Note : Waxoyl may be applied to wet surface.
.
2. Spray an anti–rust agent sufficiently until the excess
amount oozes out when filling, the doors, etc. Wipe the
excess agent with a clean rag dampened with light oil.
.
3. Do not spray an anti–rust agent to the brake hoses,
brake wheel cylinders, brake drums, exhaust muffler
and its related parts, emission control devices in the en-
gine compartment, ball joint covers, etc. Wipe up spilled
agent at once.
.4. Heat an anti–rust agent to room temperature[36.5C
(97.7F)] by submerging the container in hot water
when outside temperature is below 10C(50F).
.
5. Ventilate when spraying an anti–rust agent since it
contains a small amount of organic solvent. Keep
sparks, flames and cigarettes away.
.
CAUTION : The remaining agent will harden in the
passages of the spray gun, making them unservice-
able.
