BODYWORK MAINTENANCE
Protection against the effects of
corrosive agents
Although your vehicle has been
treated with very effective anti-
corrosion products, it nevertheless
remains subject to the effects of:
• corrosives in the atmosphere- atmospheric pollution (urbanand industrial areas).
- saline atmospheres (near the sea, particularly in hot weather),
- seasonal and damp climatic conditions, (e.g: road salt in
winter, water from road
cleaners).
 abrasives Wind-borne dust and sand, mud,
road grit thrown up by other
vehicles.
 minor impacts
You should take a number of minor
precautions in order to safeguard
your vehicle against such risks and
not to lose the benefit of your
vehicle’s anti-corrosion protection.
You should not
 Wash the vehicle in bright
sunlight or freezing temperatures.
 Scrape off mud or dirt without
pre-wetting.
 Allow dirt to accumulate.
 Allow rust to form following
minor impacts.
 Use solvents not approved by
RENAULT’s Technical Department
to remove stains as this could
damage the paintwork.
 Drive frequently in snow or
muddy conditions without
periodically washing the vehicle,
particularly under the wheel
arches and body. 
Degrease or clean mechanical
components (e.g. engine
compartment), underneath the
bodywork, parts with hinges (e.g.
inside the fuel tank flap) and
painted plastic external fittings
(e.g. bumpers) using high pressure
cleaning apparatus or by spraying
on products not approved by
RENAULT’s Technical Department.
If adequate precautions are not
taken, this could give rise to
corrosion or operational faults.
