Anti-corrosion
Proper maintenance can protect the car
against corrosion for a long time.
The common causes for car
corrosion are:
● Saline-alkali, dust, and moisture
concentrates at unaccessible part
under the bottom of the car.
● The paint film or base coating is
scratched by slight crash or foreign
bodies such as sand.
If operating the car under special
circumstance or environment, please
take special care:
● The dust on the road with saline-alkali
or chemical substances will speed up
corrosion; the air along the seacoast
or in regions polluted by industries is
also saline.
● High moisture will speed up corrosion,
especially at a site with a temperature
just over 0°C.
● When certain parts of the car are
always under moisture or humidity,
even if the rest parts are kept dry,
corrosion will occur.
● High compartment temperature may
cause corrosion to the parts which
can not get dry quickly due to lack of
proper ventilation.
The above items show that it is very
import to keep the car, especially its
bottom, clean and repair the damaged
paint and protection coating as soon as
possible.
To prevent corrosion of BYD G3,
please follow the instructions below:
Wash the car regularly.
Washing your
car regularly can keep it clean. But for
anti-corrosion purpose, please abide by
the following points:
● In winter if you drive the car on the
road with saline-alkali or live by the
sea, please wash the running part of
the car at least once per month to
reduce corrosion.
● High pressure water or steam is
effective for cleaning chassis and
wheel cover. Slurry and dirt in these
positions are difficult to remove; you
need to pay extra attention as getting
the slurry and crumbs wet without
removing them may cause severer
damage. Please avoid the dust
jamming the drain hole on the lower
edge of the door, sill plate, and frame,
otherwise water accumulated will lead
to corrosion.
● Arrange a thorough cleaning for the
chassis when winter is over.
For more hints, refer to "
Washing and
Waxing
".
Check the car's paint and decorative
pieces.
When there is any fragment or
crack on the paint film, please repair it at
once to avoid commencement of
corrosion at this location. If the
fragments or cracks peel off the metal
surface, please contact the BYD service
station for repair.
Check inside of the carriage.
Moisture
and dust will concentrate beneath the
floor mats and cause corrosion, please
check the underside of the floor mats
frequently and make sure it is dry. When
you transport chemicals, detergent,
fertilizer, salt and similar materials,
please pay particular attention and use
proper containers. In case of any
spillage or leakage, please clean and
dry the affected part immediately.
Use mudguard.
When driving in
saline-alkali area or on the gravel road,
you can use mudguard to protect the
car. The mudguard with bigger size
and shorter clearance from the ground
has better protection effect. Small
mudguard for wheel cover is optional
for BYD G3, installation of which is
available at BYD service station.
