This is page BF-2 of a factory service manual (BF — Body & Frame section) titled "General Servicing." It contains two subsections. The "Precautions" section lists five general body-work precautions: using cloth or padding to prevent scratches when removing or installing parts; careful handling of trim, molding, instruments, and grille; applying sealing compound where necessary; ensuring sealing compound does not protrude from parts; and taking rust prevention measures when replacing metal parts such as body outer panels and members. The "Clip and Fastener" section explains that clips and fasteners used throughout the BF section correspond to numbered symbols, and that any clips or fasteners damaged during removal or installation must be replaced. A reference table follows showing three clip types (C101, C102, C105) with columns for the symbol, the actual clip shape, and the removal/installation method. C101 is removed by bending up with a flat-bladed screwdriver; C102 is removed by pulling up while rotating; C105 is removed by tilting the clip as indicated by the arrow and drawing it out. Illustration reference codes SBF092B, SBF109B, SBF094B, SBF113B, SBF114B, SBF137B, SBF115B, SBF141B, SBF142B, and SBF143B accompany the drawings. Uploaded to a 1990 Nissan Micra gallery.
