A silencer (MD-12, RSS and melting sheet) has been
adhered on the top part of the floor to improve
anti-vibration performance and to shut-out exhaust
gas heat.

NOTE:

.

•

MD-12 is a high performance sheet composed of
asphalt applied with mica and thermosetting resin

LOCATIONS USING URETHANE FOAM AND FOAM

MATERIAL

M4010007000144

• Introduction of noise was prevented by inserting

urethane foam inside the centre pillar.

• Introduction of noise was prevented by adding

foam noise absorbing materials inside each pillar,
side roof rail and wheel house arch interior.

• High rigidity foam materials were added inside

the front sidemember (right side) and rear floor
sidemember to heighten panel rigidity.

CAUTION

The foam materials may burn when heated.
Always observe the following instructions.

• Never use a gas burner or burn the areas

using foam materials.

• When cutting the parts using foam materials,

ensure to use tools (air saw, etc.) that do not
generate fire.
