Corrosion Protection

Description

To provide improved corrosion prevention, the following anti-corrosive measures have been implemented in NISSAN production plants. When repairing or replacing body panels, it is necessary to use the same anti-corrosive measures.

ANTI-CORROSIVE PRECOATED STEEL (GALVANNEALED STEEL)

To improve repairability and corrosion resistance, a new type of anti-corrosive precoated steel sheet is adopted replacing conventional zinc-coated steel sheet.

Galvannealed steel is electroplated and heated to form Zinc-iron alloy, which provides excellent and long term corrosion resistance with cationic electrodeposition primer.

NISSAN genuine parts are fabricated from galvannealed steel. Therefore, it is recommended that NISSAN genuine parts or an equivalent be used for panel replacement to maintain the anti-corrosive performance built into the Nissan Ariya vehicle at the factory.

PHOSPHATE COATING TREATMENT AND CATIONIC ELECTRODEPOSITION PRIMER

A phosphate coating treatment and a cationic electrodeposition primer, which provide excellent corrosion protection, are applied to all body components.

CAUTION:

Confine paint removal during welding operation to an absolute minimum.

NISSAN genuine parts are also treated in the same manner. Therefore, it is recommended that NISSAN genuine parts or an equivalent be used for panel replacement to maintain anti-corrosive performance built into the Nissan Ariya vehicle at the factory.

Undercoating

The underside of the floor and wheelhouse are undercoated to prevent rust, vibration, noise and stone chipping. Therefore, when such a panel is replaced or repaired, apply undercoating to that part. Use an undercoating which is rust resistant, soundproof, vibration-proof, shock-resistant, adhesive, and durable.

PRECAUTIONS IN UNDERCOATING

Never apply undercoating to any place unless specified (such as the areas above the muffler and three way catalyst that are subjected to heat).
Never undercoat the exhaust pipe or other parts that become hot.
Never undercoat rotating parts.
Apply bitumen wax after applying undercoating.
After putting seal on the Nissan Ariya vehicle, put undercoating on it.

Body Sealing

The following figure shows the areas that are sealed at the factory. Sealant that is applied to these areas should be smooth and free from cuts or gaps. Care should be taken not to apply an excess amount of sealant and not to allow other unaffected parts to come into contact with the sealant.

Precautions for Body Repair

Technicians are encouraged to read the Body Repair Manual (Fundamentals) in order to ensure that the original functions and quality of the Nissan Ariya vehicle are maintained. The Body Repair Manual (Fundamentals) contains additional information, including cautions and warnings, that are not including in this manual. Technicians should refer to both manuals to ensure proper repair.

Please note that this information is prepared for worldwide usage, and as such, certain procedures might not apply in some regions or countries.

The symbols used in this section for welding operations are shown below.

Symbol marks	Description
″Number″	″Number″ after symbol mark is the total number of welds to apply. Example 1: ″4″A = 4 MIG plug welds for 3-panel plug weld method. Example 2: ″1″× 20 (0.79) = 1 MIG seam weld by length 20 mm (0.79 in).

Front pillar butt joint can be determined anywhere within shaded area as shown in the figure. The best location for the butt joint is at position A due to the construction of the Nissan Ariya vehicle.
Determine cutting position and record distance from the locating indent. Use this distance when cutting the service part. Cut outer front pillar over 60 mm (2.36 in) above the inner front pillar cut position.
Prepare a cutting jig to make outer pillar easier to cut. Also, this will permit the service part to be accurately cut at the joint position.
An example of cutting operation using a cutting jig is as per the following.

Mark cutting lines.

A: Cut position of outer pillar

B: Cut position of inner pillar
Align cutting line with notch on jig. Clamp jig to pillar.
Cut outer pillar along groove of jig (at position A).
Remove jig and cut remaining portions.
Cut inner pillar at position B in same manner.

Welding of Ultra High Strength Steel

SPOT WELDING

Spot welding is limited to ultra high strength steel (tensile strength: 980 MPa) according to the welding conditions listed below.

CAUTION:

If the below welding conditions cannot be met, then perform plug welding.

Never spot weld ultra high strength steel of tensile strength more than 980 MPa. For this type of ultra high strength steel, perform plug welding.

The below welding condition is applicable only to this Nissan Ariya vehicle. Never apply this same welding condition to other vehicles.

Welding condition

Welding pressure (Gun force)

Combination of a plate of tensile strength 980 MPa and that of tensile strength less than 980 MPa. (Up to 3 plates)

PLUG WELDING

To weld ultra high strength steel of tensile strength 980 MPa or more, perform plug welding observing the welding hole diameter described in the manual.

CAUTION:

To perform plug welding, use fuel mixture (Ar 80% + CO2 20%) for shielding gas of welder.

Never use carbon dioxide gas (CO2 100%) as shielding gas of welder. Using CO2 100% gas results in inadequate weld strength.

When welding hole diameter cannot be met, make multiple holes (smaller diameter) so that the sum of the hole areas equals the area of the original weld hole.
