Interior Care, Corrosion Protection

Windows

Clean the windows, inside and out,

with a commercially-available glass

cleaner. You can also use a mixture

of one part white vinegar to ten parts

water. This will remove the haze that

builds up on the inside of the

windows. Use a soft cloth or paper

towels to clean all glass and clear

plastic surfaces.

The rear window defogger wires are

bonded to the inside of the glass.

Wiping vigorously up-and-down can

dislodge and break the defogger wires.

When cleaning the rear window, use

gentle pressure and wipe side-to-side.

Air Fresheners

If you want to use an air freshener/

deodorizer in the interior of your car,

it is best to use a solid type. Some

liquid air fresheners contain chemi-

cals that may cause parts of the

interior trim and fabric to crack or

discolor.

If you use a liquid air freshener,

make sure you fasten it securely so it

does not spill as you drive.

Corrosion Protection

Two factors normally contribute to

causing corrosion in your car:

1. Moisture trapped in body cavities.

Dirt and road salt that collects in

hollows on the underside of the

car stays damp, promoting

corrosion in that area.

2. Removal of paint and protective

coatings from the exterior and

underside of the car.

Many corrosion-preventive measures

are built into your Honda. You can

help keep your car from corroding

by performing some simple periodic

maintenance:

Repair chips and scratches in the

paint as soon as you discover them.
