Flush the complete underside of your vehicle frequently. Keep body
and door drain holes free from packed dirt. You can also use an
anti-corrosion spray for the underbody to avoid rusting and
corrosion especially for vehicles in coastal places.

Your vehicle's air-conditioning is a sealed system. Any major
maintenance, such as recharging should be done by a qualified
technician. However, you can do a few things by yourself to make
sure the air conditioning works efficiently.
Run the air-conditioning system at least once a week, even during
the cold weather months. Run it for at least ten minutes with the
engine running at normal operating temperature. This circulates
the lubricating oil contained in the refrigerant.
Whenever you get the air-conditioning system serviced, make
sure the service facility uses a refrigerant recycling system.
This system captures the refrigerant for re-use. Releasing the
refrigerant into the atmosphere may cause damage to the
environment.

If you are leaving your vehicle for more than 2 weeks you may want
to take stopping to protect your battery. Disconnect the negative
cable from the battery. Anytime you store your vehicle, or keep it
out of service (i. e. vacation) for two weeks or more, run the air
conditioning system at idle for about five minutes in the fresh air
mode and high blower speed setting. This will ensure adequate
system lubrication to minimize the possibility of compressor
damage when the system is started again.
It is recommended storing the vehicle in a covered, clean, dry, well
leveled, ventilated and closed place.
