APPEARANCE CARE
4-2
oxidization of the aluminium wheel will occur, spoiling the appearance.The use of an a toothbrush will facilitate cleaningbetween the wheel "spokes". SE040B1-E STAIN/SPOT REMOVAL Should tree sap, dead insects or tar prove to be difficult to remove from the paint film, turpentineor a proprietary paint cutting compound may beused. Ensure that the area to be cleaned is notrubbed intensively to prevent breaking throughthe colour coat and exposing the under coat. SE040C1-E POLISHING The exterior paint work should be polished with a proprietary wax polish when water no longercollects in bead form on the paint work. Theinstructions of the product manufacturer shouldbe adhered to. SE040E1-E BUMPER MAINTENANCEThe special material from which the bumpers are manufactured warrants special attention to pre-serve the appearance of the bumpers. Avoidcontact with battery electrolyte or brake fluid andensure that accidental spillages are immediatelyflushed with water.Do not use abrasive cleaning materials whichmay damage the bumpers.
SE040F1-E ACCIDENT REPAIRSIn the event of the body work sustaining damage, the following points should be noted prior torepairs being undertaken.If body panels are replaced or repaired, anticorrosion treatment must be applied to the repairarea. The product used must be compatible withthose used in manufacture. It is recommendedthat repairs are entrusted to a Hyundai dealer toensure that replacement parts used are of thesame high quality as those used in manufactureof the vehicle and that the correct repair methodsand materials will ensure adequate levels ofcorrosion protection and the continued validity ofthe Anti Perforation Warranty. SE050A1-E INTERIOR During the winter period, it is possible that the passenger compartment flooring may becomewet from damp footwear or quantities of snowadhering to footwear. The carpet should not beallowed to remain in this condition since thecarpet may begin to create musty smells and willpromote corrosion of the floor pan in addition tothe carpet and under felt beginning to rot. SE050C1-E INTERIOR VALETINGThe soft trim and carpets should be maintained with the regular use of a vacuum cleaner. Heavysoiling should be removed with a dry cleaningagent recommended for this purpose followingthe instructions of the product manufacturer.Paint thinner, solvents or other such cleaningmaterials should not be used since damage tothe upholstery may result.
SE050D1-E SEAT BELTSSeat belts should be cleaned only with a mild soap solution. Strong detergents, solvens orbleaches may damage the belt webbing andtherefore reduce the effectiveness of the belt.Belts which display signs of fraying, wear of cutshould be replaced. SE050E1-E WINDOWSA proprietary glass cleaner should be used to clean the inside of the windows. However, therear heated windscreen must only be cleanedusing a light horizontal cleaning action. Careshould be exercised to avoid the use of abrasivecleaners or contact with items of jewellery whichmay damage the heating elements.
Avoid subjecting the bumpers to high tempera-tures such as may be encountered in high bakepaint ovens.

parking brake
Check the rear brake drums and linings for scoring, burning, leaking fluid, broken parts, andexcessive wear. Inspect the parking brake sys-tem including the parking brake lever and cables.For detailed service procedures, refer to theShop Manual. 6ZF070J1-A
o Brake pads, calipers and rotorsCheck the pads for excessive wear, discs for run out and wear, and calipers for fluid leakage. 6ZF070K1-A
o Exhaust pipe and mufflerVisually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler and hangers for cracks, deterioration, or damage.Start the engine and listen carefully for anyexhaust gas leakage. Tighten connections orreplace parts as necessary. 6ZF070L1-A
o Suspension mounting bolts Check the suspension connections for loose- ness or damage. Retighten to the specified torque.
F070E03A-AAT
o Automatic transaxle fluid The fluid level should be in the "HOT" range of the dipstick, after engine and transaxle are at normaloperating temperature. Check the AutomaticTransaxle Fluid level with the engine running andthe transaxle in neutral, with the parking brakeproperly applied. Use DIAMOND ATF SP- III,
SK ATF SP- III when adding or changing fluid. 6ZF070M1-A
o Steering gear box, linkage & boots/
lower arm ball joint
With the vehicle stopped and engine off, check for excessive freeplay in the steering wheel.Check the linkage for bends or damage. Checkthe dust boots and ball joints for deterioration,cracks, or damage. Replace any damaged parts. 6ZF070N1-A
o Power steering pump, belt and hos-
es
Check the power steering pump and hoses for leakage and damage. Replace any damaged orleaking parts immediately. Inspect the powersteering belt for evidence of cuts, cracks, exces-sive wear, oiliness and proper tension. Replaceor adjust it if necessary.
6ZF070F1-A o Brake hoses and linesVisually check for proper installation, chafing, cracks, deterioration and any leakage. Replaceany deteriorated or damaged parts immediately. 6ZF070G2-A
o Brake fluidCheck brake fluid level in the brake fluid reser- voir. The level should be between "MIN" and"MAX" marks on the side of the reservoir. Useonly hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 orDOT 4.

To minimize tyre and chain wear, do not continue to use tyre chains when they are no longerneeded. WARNING:
o When driving on roads covered with snow
or ice, drive at less than 30 km/h (20 mph).
o Use a tyre chains less than 10mm to 16", 17" tyre.
o Avoid sudden stop and turn.
o Tighten firmly not to hear contact sound, if it still sounds, remove the chains for dam-age protection. I060A01GK-EAT TYRE ROTATION The tyre wear characteristics will vary between each tyre dependant upon the conditions of use.It is normal for the front tyres to wear more rapidlythan those fitted to the rear of the vehicle andtherefore tyre rotation will provide a means ofhelping to ensure an even wear rate across thetyre set. For vehicles fitted with radial ply tyres,rotation should be confined to front to rear tyrealternation. It is not recommended that radial plytyres be rotated from side to side. NOTE: Aluminium wheels which are not supplied asOriginal Equipment should not be mixed onthe same vehicle with the original steel wheels.
WARNING:When rotating the 215/45 R17 tyres, ensure tofollow the"ROTATION" direction marked onthe sidewall of tyres.When rotating the tyres of the left and right,separate the wheel from the tyre and then re-assemble them. However, it is acceptablethat the steel spare wheel be used in conjunc-tion with Original Equipment aluminiumwheels since the offset of both wheels iscompatible. Radial and cross ply tyres shouldnot be mixed on the same vehicle.
I050A01GK-EAT TYRE CHAINSTyre chains should be installed on the front wheels. Be sure that the chains are installed inaccordance with the manufacturer's instructions.Refer to the following information.

SI060A1-E TYRE BALANCINGIncorrect tyre balance will cause steering vibra- tion and uneven tyre wear. The vehicle tyres arebalanced during production but may need furtherbalancing throughout the life of the tyres.It is recommended that the tyres be balanced onthe car for best results and that the tyres arebalanced whenever they have been removedfrom the wheel for repair.

SI060B1-E TYRE REPLACEMENT Tyres must be replaced when the wear indica- tors appear as a solid bar across the tyre tread.At this point, the remaining tread depth will beapproximately 1.6 mm. In addition to this, the tyremust be replaced if any portion of the tread hasbecome bald or if there are any lumps, bulges ordeep cuts in the sidewalls or tread. SI060D1-E WHEEL REPLACEMENT The original wheels may only be replaced with Hyundai Approved Wheels. WARNING: Driving on worn or defective tyres is danger-ous. Worn tyres may cause loss of steeringcontrol and a serious deterioration of brakingefficiency. Defective tyres may cause vibra-tion and loss of control through blow outs. Tyres of different size, construction or tread pattern should not be intermixed on the sameaxle. Radial and cross ply tyres should not beused on the same vehicle.The use of tyres and wheels of non approvedsizes can be dangerous.
Replacement tyres must be of the recommendedsize and rating and should be of the same manu-facture and tread pattern on each axle.
