BODY LUBRICATION

All mechanisms and linkages should be lubricated when necessary. This will maintain ease of operation and provide protection against rust and excessive wear. The weatherstrip seals should be lubricated to prolong their life as well as to improve door sealing.

All applicable exterior and interior vehicle operating mechanisms should be inspected and cleaned. Pivot/sliding contact areas on the mechanisms should then be lubricated.

• Spray a small amount of lock cylinder lubricant directly into the lock cylinder.
• Apply a small amount to the key and insert it into the lock cylinder.
• Rotate it to the locked position and then back to the unlocked position several times.
• Remove the key. Wipe the lubricant from it with a clean cloth to avoid soiling of clothing.
