CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE

es on the underside of the splashboards of the
car. Make sure that the outlets and the under-
side of the doors are open. Paint damage can
be caused by small accumulation of tar, indus-
trial precipitation, tree resin, insects and bird
droppings, when not removed immediately. If
water alone is not strong enough to remove the
accumulated dirt, use a mild car washing solu-
tion. Be sure to rinse the surface after washing
to remove the solution. Never allow the solution
to dry on the painted surfaces.

When to Wax Again

You should polish and wax the car again when
water no longer beads on a clean surface but
spreads out over a larger area.

Maintaining Bumpers

Special precautions must be observed to pre-
serve the appearance of the bumpers on your
Hyundai. 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 the
surface can be damaged if mistreated. Do
not use abrasive cleaners. Use warm water
and mild soap or car-washing solution.

o Do not expose the bumpers to high tem-

peratures. For example, if you have your car
repainted, do not leave the bumpers on the
car if the car is going to be placed in a high-
temperature paint booth.

To Clean the Vinyl Upholstery

To clean the vinyl upholstery, first remove loose
dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner. Then apply
a solution of mild soap 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 removed, repeat this procedure
until the upholstery is clean. Do not use gaso-
line, solvent, paint thinner or other strong clean-
ers.

Spot Cleaning

Don’t use gasoline, strong solvents or corrosive
cleaning agents. These can damage the finish
of the car. To remove road tar, use turpentine
on a clean, soft cloth. 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-cleaning
polish.

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
and follow the manufacturer’s directions on the
container. Polish and wax the bright trim pieces
as well as the paint.

To Clean the Leather Upholstery

To Clean the Leather Upholstery
(If installed)

(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 it
may work into the surface of the leather, caus-
ing damage.

Fine leather needs care, and should be cleaned
when necessary. Washing leather thoroughly
with soap and water will keep your leather
lustrous, beautiful 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. Thoroughly wash the leather. Wipe clean
with a slightly damp cloth and dry with soft
cloth. Do this as often as the leather becomes
soiled.

During tanning operations, sufficient oils are
incorporated through processing that none need
be applied during the life of the leather. Oil
applied to the finished surface will in no way
help the leather and may do more harm than
