GENERAL INFORMATION

Characteristic feature of models of cars which are described in this manual is existence of a design like Unibodi in which the trough-shaped element of a body floor together with lobbies and back longitudinal longerons is used. They serve as a support to body details, systems of a forward and back suspension bracket and other mechanical components. Certain details are especially vulnerable during accident. They can be unscrewed and repaired or replaced. Their number includes body moldings, bumpers, covers of a cowl and a luggage carrier and all glasses.

Information concerning only the general procedures of maintenance and repair of a body and repair of the panel of a body which can be conducted independently is provided in this chapter.
