SEAT BELTS
The seat belts can be cleaned by wiping them
with a sponge dampened in a mild soap solu-
tion. Allow the belts to dry completely in the
shade before using them. For additional in-
formation, refer to “Seat belt maintenance” in
the “Safety—Seats, seat belts and supple-
mental restraint system” section of this
manual.
WARNING
Do not allow wet seat belts to roll up in the
retractor. NEVER use bleach, dye or chemi-
cal solvents to clean the seat belts, since
these materials may severely weaken the
seat belt webbing.
CLEANING THE SEAT TRACKS
CAUTION
Periodically clean the seat tracks to pre-
vent reduction of ability to move the seats.
Clean periodically with a high-powered
vacuum cleaner. Dirt and debris may reduce
the ability to adjust the seat. A wet cleansing
agent may be used if necessary.
MOST COMMON FACTORS
CONTRIBUTING TO VEHICLE
CORROSION
Most vehicle corrosion is caused by: ∙ The accumulation of moisture-retaining dirt and debris in body panel sections,
cavities, and other areas.
∙ Damage to paint and other protective coatings caused by gravel and stone
chips or minor traffic collisions.
ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS
INFLUENCE THE RATE OF
CORROSION
Moisture
Accumulation of sand, dirt and water on the
vehicle body underside can accelerate corro-
sion. Wet floor coverings will not dry com-
pletely inside the vehicle and should be re-
moved for drying to avoid floor panel
corrosion.
Relative humidity
Corrosion will be accelerated in areas of high
relative humidity, especially those areas
where the temperatures stay above freezing
and where atmospheric pollution exists and
road salt is used.
Temperature
High temperatures accelerate the rate of cor-
rosion to those parts which are not well ven-
tilated.
Air pollution
Industrial pollution, the presence of salt in the
air in coastal areas, or heavy road salt use
accelerates the corrosion process. Road salt
also accelerates the disintegration of paint
surfaces.
CORROSION PROTECTION
7-6Appearance and care
WARNING
∙ It is extremely dangerous to ride in acargo area inside a vehicle. In a collision,
people riding in these areas are more
likely to be seriously injured or killed.
∙ Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with
seats and seat belts.
∙ Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
TERMS
It is important to familiarize yourself with the
following terms before loading your vehicle:
∙ Curb Weight (actual weight of your ve- hicle) - vehicle weight including: standard
and optional equipment, fluids, emer-
gency tools, and spare tire assembly. This
weight does not include passengers and
cargo.
∙ GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight) - curb weight plus the combined weight of pas-
sengers and cargo.
∙ GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) - The maximum total combined weight of
the vehicle, passengers, cargo and any
other optional equipment. ∙ GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating) -
maximum weight (load) limit specified for
the front or rear axle.
∙ GCWR (Gross Combined Weight rating) - The maximum total combined weight of
the vehicle, passengers, cargo and the
trailer.
∙ Vehicle Capacity Weight, Load limit, To- tal load capacity - maximum total weight
limit specified of the load (passengers
and cargo) for the vehicle. This is the
maximum combined weight of occupants
and cargo that can be loaded into the
vehicle.
∙ Cargo capacity - permissible weight of cargo, the subtracted weight of occu-
pants from the load limit.
VEHICLE LOAD CAPACITY
Before driving a loaded vehicle, confirm that
you do not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (GVWR) or the Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR) for your vehicle.
To get “the combined weight of occupants
and cargo”, add the weight of all occupants,
then add the total luggage weight, as shown
in the following illustration.
