Title:
WHEEL FILM FOR BRAKE ROTOR
RUST PREVENTION
Models:
All Models with Wheel Film
Technical Service
Information Bulletin
July 16, 2004
PD001-04
To prevent brake rotor rust from forming during transportation and storage, wheel film will
be adopted instead of using a cardboard type anti±rust cover.
The purpose of the wheel film is to protect the disc brake rotor from weather elements
and initial rust before the vehicle is delivered to the customer. Consequently, the film
should remain on the wheel as long as possible.
NOTE:
Retain the wheel film on the disc wheel during vehicle display and storage.
Do not remove the wheel film right away at Pre±Delivery Service (PDS) if the vehicle
will be stored after PDS.
Remove the wheel film just prior to delivery to customers.

Material: Polyethylene
