CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE 4-3
E030D01A-AAT When to Wax AgainYou should polish and wax the car again when water no longer beads on a clean surface butspreads out over a larger area. E030E01A-AAT Maintaining BumpersSpecial precautions must be observed to pre- serve the appearance of the bumpers on yourHyundai. They are:
o Be careful not to spill battery electrolyte or
hydraulic brake fluid on the bumpers. If you do, wash it off immediately with clear water.
o Be gentle when cleaning the bumper sur- faces. They are made of soft plastic and thesurface can be damaged if mistreated. Do notuse abrasive cleaners. Use warm water andmild soap or car-washing solution.
o Do not expose the bumpers to high tem- peratures. For example, if you have your carrepainted, do not leave the bumpers on thecar if the car is going to be placed in a high-temperature paint booth. E040A01A-AAT CLEANING THE INTERIOR To Clean the Vinyl Upholstery To clean the vinyl upholstery, first remove loose dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner. Then applya solution of mild soap or detergent and waterusing a clean sponge or soft cloth. Allow this tostay on the surface to loosen the dirt, then wipewith a clean damp sponge or cloth. If all the dirtstains are not removed, repeat this procedureuntil the upholstery is clean. Do not use gasoline,solvent, paint thinner or other strong cleaners.
E030B01A-AAT Spot CleaningDon't use gasoline, strong solvents or corrosive cleaning agents. These can damage the finish ofthe car. To remove road tar, use turpentine on aclean, soft cloth. Be gentle.To remove dead insects or tree sap, use warmwater and mild soap or car-washing solution.Soak the spot and rub gently. If the paint has lostits luster, use a commercial car-cleaning polish. E030C01A-AAT Polishing and Waxing Always wash and dry the car before polishing or waxing or using a combination cleaner and wax.Use a good quality commercial product andfollow the manufacturer's directions on the con-tainer. Polish and wax the bright trim pieces aswell as the paint. E040B01A-AAT To Clean the Leather Upholstery (If Installed) In the normal course of use, leather upholstered surfaces will, like any material, pick-up dust anddirt. This dust and dirt must be cleaned off or itmay work into the surface of the leather, causingdamage. Fine leather needs care, and should be cleaned when necessary. Washing leather thoroughlywith soap and water will keep your leather lus-trous, beautiful and ensure you have many yearsof wear.Take a piece of cheese cloth and using any mildsoap and lukewarm water, work up a good lather.Thoroughly wash the leather. Wipe clean with aslightly damp cloth and dry with soft cloth. Do thisas often as the leather becomes soiled.
sure that the outlets and the underside of thedoors are open. Paint damage can be caused bysmall accumulation of tar, industrial precipita-tion, tree resin, insects and bird droppings, whennot removed immediately. If water alone is notstrong enough to remove the accumulated dirt,use a mild car washing solution. Be sure to rinsethe surface after washing to remove the solution.Never allow the solution to dry on the paintedsurfaces.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
1- 14 shoulder belt must always be positioned as low as possible on the child's hips andas snug as possible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the child, Hyundai recommends the use of anapproved booster seat in the rear seat inorder to raise the child's seating height sothat the seat belt will properly fit the child.
o Never allow a child to stand up or kneel on the seat.
o Never use an infant carrier or child safety seat that "hooks" over a seatback; it maynot provide adequate security in an acci-dent.
o Never allow a child to be held in a person's arms while they are in a moving vehicle, asthis could result in serious injury to thechild in the event of an accident or asudden stop. Holding a child in a movingvehicle does not provide the child withany means of protection during an acci-dent, even if the person holding the childis wearing a seat belt.
o If the child restraint seat is not anchored properly, the risk of a child being seri-ously injured or killed in a collision greatlyincreases.
WARNING:
o A child restraint system must be placed in
the rear seat. Never install a child or infantseat on the front passenger's seat.Should an accident occur and cause thepassenger side airbag to deploy, it couldseverely injure or kill an infant or childseated in an infant or child seat. Thus, onlyuse a child restraint in the rear seat of yourvehicle.
o Since a safety belt or child restraint sys- tem can become very hot if it is left in aclosed vehicle, be sure to check the seatcover and buckles before placing a childthere.
o When the child restraint system is not in use, store it in the boot or fasten it with asafety belt so that it will not be thrownforward in the case of a sudden stop or anaccident.
o Children who are too large to be in a child restraint should sit in the rear seat and berestrained with the available lap/shoulderbelts. Never allow children to ride in thefront passenger seat.
o Always make sure that the shoulder belt portion of the outboard lap/shoulder beltis positioned midway over the shoulder,never across the neck or behind the back.Moving the child closer to the center of thevehicle may help provide a good shoulderbelt fit. The lap belt portion of the lap/
B230A02GK-EAT CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMChildren riding in the car should sit in the rear seat and must always be properly restrained tominimize the risk of injury in an accident, suddenstop or sudden maneuver. According to accidentstatistics, children are safer when properly re-strained in the rear seats than in the front seat.Larger children not in a child restraint should useone of the seat belts provided.You are required by law to use safety restraintsfor children. If small children ride in your vehicleyou must put them in a child restraint system(safety seat).Children could be injured or killed in a crash iftheir restraints are not properly secured. Forsmall children and babies, a child seat or infantseat must be used. Before buying a particularchild restraint system, make sure it fits your carseat and seat belts, and fits your child.

View from below the vehicle YC200E1-E Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
1. Before towing, check towbar hitch and safe-
ty cable connections as well as proper oper- ation of the trailer running lights, brake lights,and turn signals.
2. Always drive your vehicle at a moderate speed (Less than 60mph).
3. Trailer towing requires more fuel than nor- mal conditions.
4. To maintain engine braking efficiency, do not tow a trailer with the transaxle engagedin an overdrive gear.
5. Always secure items in the trailer to prevent load shift while driving.
6. Check the condition and air pressure of all tires on the trailer and your car. Low tirepressure can seriously affect the handling.Also check the spare tire.
7. The vehicle/trailer combination is more af- fected by crosswind and buffeting. When being passed by a large vehicle, keep a constant speed and steer straight ahead.If there is too much wind buffeting, slowdown to get out of the other vehicle's airturbulence.
8. When parking your car and trailer, especial- ly on a hill, be sure to follow all the normalprecautions. Turn your front wheel into thecurb, set the parking brake firmly, and putthe transaxle in 1st or Reverse (manual) orPark (automatic). In addition, place wheelchocks at each of the trailer's tires.
