CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE 4- 3
E020C01A-AAT Keep Your Garage Dry Don't park your car in a damp, poorly ventilated garage. This creates a fa- vorable environment for corrosion. This is particularly true if you wash your carin the garage or drive it into the garage when it is still wet or covered with snow, ice or mud. Even a heated ga-rage can contribute to corrosion un- less it is well ventilated so moisture is dispersed. E020D01A-AAT Keep Paint and Trim in Good Condition Scratches or chips in the finish should be covered with "touch-up" paint as soon as possible to reduce the possi-bility of corrosion. If bare metal is show- ing through, the attention of a qualified body and paint shop is recommended. E020E01A-AAT Don't Neglect the Interior Moisture can collect under the floor mats and carpeting to cause corro-sion. Check under the mats periodi- cally to be sure the carpeting is dry. Use particular care if you carry fertiliz-ers, cleaning materials or chemicals in the car. These should be carried only in propercontainers and any spills or leaks should be cleaned up, flushed with clear water and thoroughly dried.
E020B01A-AAT Keep Your Car Clean The best way to prevent corrosion is to keep your car clean and free of corro-sive materials. Attention to the under- side of the car is particularly important.
o If you live in a high-corrosion area —
where road salts are used, near the ocean, areas with industrial pollu-tion, acid rain, etc.—, you should take extra care to prevent corro- sion. In winter, hose off the under-side of your car at least once a month and be sure to clean the underside thoroughly when winteris over.
o When cleaning underneath the car,
give particular attention to the com-ponents under the fenders and other areas that are hidden from view. Do a thorough job; just dampening theaccumulated mud rather than wash- ing it away will accelerate corrosion rather than prevent it. Water underhigh pressure and steam are par- ticularly effective in removing accu- mulated mud and corrosive materi-als. o When cleaning lower door panels,
rocker panels and frame members,be sure that drain holes are keptopen so that moisture can escape and not be trapped inside to ac- celerate corrosion.
E030A01A-AAT WASHING AND WAXING Washing Your Hyundai Never wash your car when the surface is hot from being in the sun. Always wash your car in the shade. Wash your car frequently. Dirt is abra- sive and can scratch the paint if it is not removed. Air pollution or acid rain maydamage the paint and trim through chemical action if pollutants are al- lowed to remain in contact with thesurface. If you live near the ocean or in an area where road salts or dust con-

trol chemicals are used, you should pay particular attention to the under- side of the car. Start by rinsing the carto remove dust and loose dirt. In win- ter, or if you have driven through mud or muddy water, be sure to thoroughlyclean the underside as well. Use a hard direct stream of water to remove accumulations of mud or corrosivematerials. Use a good quality car-wash- ing solution and follow the manufacturer's directions on the pack-age. These are available at your Hyundai dealer or auto parts outlet. Don't use strong household detergents,gasoline, strong solvents or abrasive cleaning powders as these may dam- age the finish.Use a clean sponge or cloth, rinse it frequently and don't damage the finish by rubbing too hard. For stubborn spots,dampen them frequently and remove them a little at a time. To clean whitewall tires, use a stiffbrush or soapy steel-wool scouring pad. To clean plastic wheel covers, use aclean sponge or soft cloth and water. To clean cast aluminum alloy wheels, use a mild soap or neutral detergent. Do not use abrasive cleaners. Protectthe bare-metal surfaces by cleaning, polishing and waxing. Because alumi- num is subject to corrosion, be sure togive aluminum alloy wheels special attention in winter. If you drive on salted roads, clean the wheels thor-oughly afterwards. After washing, be sure to rinse thor- oughly. If soapy water dries on the finish, streaking will result. When the weather is warm and the humidity low, you may find it neces- sary to rinse each section immediatelyafter washing to avoid streaking. After rinsing, dry the car using a damp chamois or soft, absorbent cloth. The reason for drying the car is to remove water from the car so it will dry withoutwater spots. Don't rub, this can dam- age the finish.
If you find any nicks or scratches inthe paint, use touch-up paint to cover them to prevent corrosion. To protectthe paintwork of the car against corro- sion, you must clean your Hyundai (at least once a month). Give special at-tention to the removal of salt, mud and other substances on the underside of the splashboards of the car. Makesure that the outlets and the underside of the doors are open. Paint damage can be caused by small accumulationof tar, industrial precipitation, tree resin, insects and bird droppings, when not removed immediately. If water alone isnot strong enough to remove the accu- mulated dirt, use a mild car washing solution. Be sure to rinse the surfaceafter washing to remove the solution. Never allow the solution to dry on the painted surfaces.

E030D01A-AAT When to Wax Again You should polish and wax the car again when water no longer beads ona clean surface but spreads out over a larger area. E030E01A-AAT Maintaining Bumpers Special precautions must be observed to preserve the appearance of the bumpers on your Hyundai. They are:
o Be careful not to spill battery elec-
trolyte or hydraulic brake fluid on the bumpers. If you do, wash it off im- mediately with clear water.
o Be gentle when cleaning the bumper
surfaces. They are made of softplastic and the surface can be dam- aged if mistreated. Do not use abra-sive cleaners. Use warm water and mild soap or car-washing solution.
o Do not expose the bumpers to high
temperatures. For example, if youhave your car repainted, do not leave the bumpers on the car if thecar 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 re- move loose dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner. Then apply a solution of mildsoap or detergent and water using a clean sponge or soft cloth. Allow this to stay on the surface to loosen the dirt,then wipe with a clean damp sponge or cloth. If all the dirt stains are not re- moved, repeat this procedure until theupholstery is clean. Do not use gaso- line, solvent, paint thinner or other strong cleaners.
E030B01A-AAT Spot Cleaning Don't use gasoline, strong solvents or corrosive cleaning agents. These candamage the finish of the car. To re- move road tar, use turpentine on a clean, soft cloth or commercially avail-able bug and tar remover. Be gentle. To remove dead insects or tree sap, use warm water and mild soap or car-washing solution. Soak the spot and rub gently. If the paint has lost its luster, use a commercial car-cleaningpolish. E030C01A-AAT Polishing and Waxing Always wash and dry the car before polishing or waxing or using a combi- nation cleaner and wax. Use a goodquality commercial product and follow the manufacturer's directions on the container. Polish and wax the brighttrim pieces as well 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 and dirt. This dust and dirt must be cleaned off or itmay work into the surface of the leather, causing damage. Fine leather needs care, and should be cleaned when necessary. Washing leather thoroughly with soap and water

E040E01A-AAT Cleaning the Windows You may use any household window cleaner on the windows. However,when cleaning the inside of the rear window be careful not to damage the rear window defroster wiring. E050A01A-AAT Any Questions? If you have any questions about the care of your car, consult your Hyundaidealer.
E040D01A-AAT Cleaning the Seat Belts To clean the seat belts, use a cloth or sponge with mild soap or detergent and warm water. Do not use strongdetergents, dye, bleach or abrasive materials on the seat belts as this may weaken the fabric.While cleaning the belts, inspect them for excessive wear, cuts, fraying or other signs of damage and replacethem if necessary.
E040C01A-AAT Cleaning the Carpets Use a foam-type carpet cleaner. Clean- ers of this type are available in aerosolcans in liquid form or powder. Read the instructions and follow them exactly. Using a vacuum cleaner with the ap-propriate attachment, remove as much dirt from the carpets as possible. Apply the foam following the manufacturer'sdirections, then rub in overlapping circles. Do not add water. These clean- ers work best when the carpet is keptas dry as possible.
will keep your leather lustrous, beauti- ful and ensure you have many years of wear.Take a piece of cheese cloth and using any mild soap and lukewarm water, work up a good lather. Thoroughlywash the leather. Wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth and dry with soft cloth. Do this as often as the leatherbecomes soiled. During tanning operations, sufficient oils are incorporated through process- ing that none need be applied during the life of the leather. Oil applied to thefinished surface will in no way help the leather and may do more harm than good. Varnishes and furniture polishesshould never be used under any con- ditions.
