SD070K1-E AFTER CHANGING WHEELS The pressure of the spare tyre should be checked at the first available oppor- tunity. If any doubt exists as to the tyre pressure, the vehicle should be drivenslowly to the nearest service station and the tyre pressure checked and adjusted as required.If the valve cap is lost from any of the valves, a replacement should be ob- tained and fitted at the first availableopportunity. The valve cap prevents the ingress of dirt which may cause the valve to stick and therefore leak and ispart of the valve sealing function. Ensure that the spare wheel, jack and wheel nut wrench as well tools are correctly located in the boot of thevehicle to prevent damage and noise.
D080A01O-GAT IF YOUR VEHICLE MUST BE TOWED If your vehicle has to be towed, it should be done by your Hyundai dealer or a commercial tow truck service. This will help assure that your vehicleis not damaged in towing. Also, profes- sionals are generally aware of local laws governing towing. In any case,rather than risk damage to your car, it is suggested that you show this infor- mation to the tow truck operator. Besure that a safety chain system is used and that all local laws are observed. It is recommended that your vehiclebe towed with a wheel lift and dollies or flatbed equipment with all the wheels off the ground.
!
CAUTION:
o Your vehicle can be damaged if towed incorrectly!
o Be sure the transaxle is in neu-
tral.
o When the engine will not start, be sure the steering is unlocked by placing the key in the "ACC" po-sition.

1) If the vehicle is being towed with the
rear wheels on the ground, be sure the parking brake is released.
NOTE: Before towing, check the level of the automatic transaxle fluid. If it is below the "HOT" range on the dip-stick, add fluid. If you cannot add fluid, a towing dolly must be used.
2) If any of the loaded wheels or sus- pension components are damaged or the vehicle is being towed withthe front wheels on the ground, use a towing dolly under the front wheels.
o Manual Transaxle:
If you do not use a towing dolly,place the ignition key in the "ACC" position and put the transaxle in "N(Neutral)".
CAUTION:
Do not tow with the key removed orin the "LOCK" position when tow- ing from the rear without a towing dolly.

4- 2 CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE
SE020A1-E PROTECTING YOUR HYUNDAI FROM CORROSION By using the most advanced design and construction practices, every Hyundai is built to retain the originalfactory finish for many years. How- ever, long term durability is also greatly dependant upon maintaining the vari-ous protection systems and coatings used in manufacture since constant, exposure to the elements will result ina breakdown and loss of effective- ness. The following suggestions are made to assist in the maintenance ofthe vehicle bodywork. SE030A1-E UNDERBODY COATINGS Every Hyundai passenger car receives a full underbody and cavity injectiontreatment during production. In order that this treatment may retain maxi- mum effectiveness it is recommendedthat the underbody receives a power wash and a thorough inspection after each winter season. In doing so anyaccumulations of mud, which act as moisture traps and combine with road salts to accelerate corrosion will beremoved. In order to maintain the Anti Perforation Warranty, the requirements regarding the retreatment programmemust be observed in accordance with the Terms and Conditions outlined in the separate Anti Perforation WarrantyBooklet. NOTE: The underbody should never be steam cleaned since the underbodycoating may be removed by this process. During the interim period betweenpower washing the underbody, the more vulnerable areas such as wheel arches should be hosed off particularly during the winter sea- son to prevent prolonged contact with road salts.Ensure that the various drain points located at the bottom of the door panels and sills are kept clear toprevent water from becoming trapped within the cavities. Wher- ever possible, the parking of thevehicle in a confined, poorly venti- lated location (a garage for example) should be avoided when the ve-hicle is wet or is covered with snow or ice. Under these conditions, the internal cavities of the vehicle willremain damp for prolonged peri- ods of time which will encourage corrosion. Parking the vehiclewhere good ventilation exists (out- side for example) is preferable.

CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE 4- 3
SE040A1-E VALETING Regular cleaning of the exterior paintwork serves two important func-tions. Firstly, the removal of abrasive dirt and contaminants will maintain the lustre of the paintwork and will preventdiscolouration and dulling due to pro- longed contact. Secondly, the presence of damagethrough impact or abrasion will be ap- parent allowing early rectification to be made thus preventing corrosion frombecoming established and spreading beneath the paint film. To avoid "water spotting" the vehicle should not bewashed in direct sunlight particularly in the case of vehicles having dark body colours. The heat from the sun rays isabsorbed by the paint film increasing the surface temperature. This action causes water used for washing toevaporate quickly leaving behind the deposits from the water and the sham- poo used.Use only a shampoo intended for the purpose and ensure that the body work is thoroughly wetted to soften the dirtfilm prior to attempting to remove this. After removing the dirt film with a soft sponge, the body work should be thor- oughly rinsed and then dried with agood quality chamois leather to pre- vent streaking or spotting of the paint work.Household detergents, solvents and abrasive cleaning materials should not be used in order to avoid damaging thepaint film. Plastic wheel covers should be cleaned using a sponge and water. Cast alloywheels should be cleaned using a mild soap or neutral detergent. Abrasive compounds must not be used since inthe event of these damaging the lac- quer coating, oxidization of the alu- minium wheel will occur, spoiling theappearance. The use of an a toothbrush will facili- tate cleaning between the wheel"spokes".
SE040B1-E STAIN/SPOT REMOVAL Should tree sap, dead insects or tar prove to be difficult to remove from thepaint film, turpentine or a proprietary paint cutting compound may be used. Ensure that the area to be cleaned isnot rubbed intensively to prevent break- ing through the colour coat and expos- ing the under coat. SE040C1-E POLISHING The exterior paint work should be pol- ished with a proprietary wax polish when water no longer collects in bead form on the paint work. The instruc-tions of the product manufacturer should be adhered to.
