CAUTION : Never clean plastic parts or

agent, paint thinner, acetone, products con-
taining chlorine, etc.
Inspect the hood and repair any damage. Touch up
all metal spots where paint has been scratched
off. Spray all metal parts including shock chromed
rods with antirust product (P / N 293 6000 06).
Wax the hood and the painted portion of the
frame for better protection.

tect the vehicle with a cover to prevent dust

nents and vehicle finish.
