CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE
3
WASHING AND WAXING
E020E01A-AAT
Don't Neglect the Interior
Moisture can collect under the floor mats
and carpeting to cause corrosion. Check
under the mats periodically to be sure the
carpeting is dry. Use particular care if you
carry fertilizers, cleaning materials or
chemicals in the car.
These should be carried only in proper
containers and any spills or leaks should
be cleaned up, flushed with clear water
and thoroughly dried.

Keep Paint and Trim in Good Condi-
tion
Scratches or chips in the finish should be
covered with "touch-up" paint as soon as
possible to reduce the possibility of corro-
sion. If bare metal is showing through, the
attention of a qualified body and paint
shop is recommended.
Bird droppings : Bird droppings are highly
corrosive and may damage painted sur-
faces in just a few hours. Always remove
bird droppings as soon as possible.
E020C02A-AAT
Keep Your Garage Dry
Don't park your car in a damp, poorly
ventilated garage. This creates a favor-
able environment for corrosion. This is
particularly true if you wash your car in the
garage or drive it into the garage when it is
still wet or covered with snow, ice or mud.
Even a heated garage can contribute to
corrosion unless it is well ventilated so
moisture is dispersed.

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 abrasive
and can scratch the paint if it is not re-
moved. Air pollution or acid rain may dam-
age the paint and trim through chemical
action if pollutants are allowed to remain in
contact with the surface. If you live near the
ocean or in an area where road salts or
dust control chemicals are used, you
should pay particular attention to the un-
derside of the car. Start by rinsing the car
to remove dust and loose dirt. In winter, or
if you have driven through mud or muddy
water, be sure to thoroughly clean the
underside as well. Use a hard direct stream
of water to remove accumulations of mud
or corrosive materials. Use a good quality
car-washing solution and follow the
manufacturer's directions on the package.
These are available at your Hyundai dealer
or auto parts outlet. Don't use strong house-
hold detergents, gasoline, strong solvents
or abrasive cleaning powders as these
may damage the finish.
o When cleaning lower door panels,
rocker panels and frame members, be
sure that drain holes are kept open
so that moisture can escape and not
be trapped inside to ac-celerate corro-
sion.
