(DURASTEEL)

To
provide improved corrosion prevention, thefollowing anti-corrosive measureshavebeen implemented in
our production plants.Whenrepairing orreplacing bodypanels, itis necessary touse these sameanti-corrosive
measures.

Nissan Genuine ServicePartsalsoaretreated inthe same manner. Therefore, itis recommended tbat
GENUINE NISSANPARTSbeused forpanel replacement tomaintain anti-corrosive performancebuilt
into thevehicle atthe factory.

A
phosphate coatingtreatment andacationic electrodeposition primer,whichprovide anexcellent anti-
corrosion effect,areemployed onallbody components.

Caution:
Confine paintremoval inthe welding operation tothe absolute minimum.

Durasteel
isclassified aseither one-side precoated
steel ortwo-side precoated steel.Thetwo side
precoated steelprovides excellent corrosion resis-
tance. To
improve repairability andcorrosion resistance, a
new type ofanti-corrosive precoatedsteelsheets have
been adopted takingtheplace ofconventional zinc-
coated steelsheets.
This durasteel iselectroplated, zinc-nickelalloyunder
organic film,which provides excellent corrosion resis-
tance.

Nissan Genuine ServicePartsarefabricated fromdurasteel sheets.Therefore, itis recommended that
