NOTE: The underbody should never be steam
cleaned since the underbody coating may be removed by this process.
During the interim period between power
washing the underbody, the more vulnera-ble areas such as wheelarches should behosed off, particularly during the winter sea-son to prevent prolonged contact of roadsalt with the body.
Ensure that the various drain points located
at bottom of the door panels are kept clear,to prevent water becoming trapped withinthe cavities. Wherever possible, the parkingof the vehicle in a confined, poorly ventilat-ed location (e.g.) garage should be avoidedwhen the vehicle is wet or covered withsnow or ice. Under these conditions, theinternal cavities of the vehicle will remaindamp for long periods of time which en-courage corrosion. Parking the vehicle wheregood ventilation exists is preferable.

VALETING
Regular cleaning of the exterior paintwork serves
two important functions. Firstly, the removal ofabrasive dirt and contaminants will maintain thelustre of the paintwork and will preventdiscolouration and dulling due to prolonged con-tact.
Secondly, the presence of damage through
impact or abrasion will be apparent allowingearly rectification to be made thus preventingcorrosion from becoming established andspreading beneath the paint film. To avoid "wa-ter spotting" the vehicle should not be washedin direct sunlight particularly in the case ofvehicles having dark body colours. The heatfrom the sun rays is absorbed by the paint filmincreasing the surface temperature. This actioncauses water used for washing to evaporatequickly leaving behind the deposits from thewater and the shampoo used.
Use only a shampoo intended for the purpose
and ensure that the body work is thoroughlywetted to soften the dirt film prior to attemptingto remove this.
After removing the dirt film with a soft sponge,
the body work should be thoroughly rinsed andthen dried with a good quality chamois leatherto prevent streaking or spotting of the paintwork. Household detergents, solvents and abrasive
cleaning materials should not be used in orderto avoid damaging the paint film.

APPEARANCE CARE
In using the most advanced design and con-
struction practices, every Hyundai is built to retain its original factory finish for many years.However, long term durability is also greatlydependant upon maintaining the various pro-tection systems and coatings used in manufac-ture since constant exposure to the elementswill eventually result in their breakdown andloss of effectiveness. The following sugges-tions are made to assist in the maintenance ofthe vehicle bodywork.
ZE020B1-E
Underbody Coatings Every Hyundai passenger car receives a full
underbody and cavity injection treatment duringproduction. In order that this treatment mayretain maximum effectiveness, it is recommend-ed that the underbody receives a power washand a thorough inspection after each winterseason. In doing so any accumulations of mud,which act as moisture traps and combine withroad salts to accelerate corrosion, will be re-moved. Should any damage to or deteriorationof the underbody coating be apparent, the ad-vice of a Hyundai dealer regarding the use of acompatible repair material should be sought. ZE020C1-E
Interior During the winter period, it is possible that the
carpet within the passenger compartment maybecome wet. The carpet should not be allowedto remain in this condition for prolonged periodssince the carpet may begin to create mustysmells and promote internal corrosion of thefloorpan.

POLISHING
The exterior paint work should be polished with
a proprietary wax polish when water no longer collects in bead form on the paint work. Theinstructions of the product manufacturer shouldbe adhered to. JE120A1-E
WINDOWS A proprietary glass cleaner should be used toclean 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 abra-sive cleaners or contact with items of jewellerywhich may damage the heating elements.
Plastic wheel covers should be cleaned using a
sponge and water. Cast alloy wheels should becleaned using a mild soap or neutral detergent.Abrasive compounds must not be used since inthe event of these damaging the lacquer coat-ing, oxidisation of the aluminium wheel willoccur, spoiling the appearance.
The use of a toothbrush will facilitate cleaning
between the wheel "spokes". and ensure that accidental spillages are imme-diately flushed with water.
Do not use abrasive cleaning materials whichmay damage the bumpers.Avoid subjecting the bumpers to high tempera-tures such as may be encountered in high bakepaint ovens. JE110A1-E
INTERIOR VALETING
The soft trim and carpets should be maintainedwith 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.
JE060A1-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.
JE080A1-E
BUMPER MAINTENANCE The special material from which the bumpers
are manufactured warrants special attention topreserve the appearance of the bumpers. Avoidcontact with battery electrolyte or brake fluid JE090A1-E
ACCIDENT REPAIRS
In the event of the body work sustaining dam-age, the following points should be noted priorto repairs being undertaken. If body panels are replaced or repaired, anti corrosion treatment must be applied to therepair area. The product used must be compat-ible with those used in manufacture. It is recom-mended that repairs are entrusted to a Hyundaidealer to ensure that replacement parts usedare of the same high quality as those used inmanufacture of the vehicle and that the correctrepair methods and materials will ensure ade-quate levels of corrosion protection and thecontinued validity of the Anti Perforation War-ranty. JE100A1-E
SEAT BELTS
Seat 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 or cutshould be replaced.

To Clean Leather Upholstery
(Not all models) 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 orit may work into the surface of the leather,causing damage.
Fine leather needs care. This care, as with all
fine things, need not be elaborated, but shouldinclude cleaning when necessary. Washingleather thoroughly with soap and water willkeep your leather lustrous, beautiful and ensureyou have many years of wear.
Take a piece of cheese cloth and using any
mild soap and lukewarm water, work up a goodlather. Thoroughly wash the leather. Wipe cleanwith a slightly damp cloth and dry with softcloth. Do this as often as the leather becomessoiled. During tanning operations, sufficient oils are
incorporated through processing that none needbe applied during the life of the leather. Oilapplied to the finished surface will in no wayhelp the leather and may do more harm thangood. Varnished and furniture polishes shouldNEVER be used under any conditions.

ENGINE OIL
The correct engine oil level is of paramount
importance. An excessively high or low oil level may result in irreparable damage being sus-tained by the engine. The engine oil level mustbe checked on a daily basis, whenever thevehicle is refuelled or before starting a long trip,whichever occurs sooner.
In addition, it is imperative that only an ap-
proved grade and specification of oil is used toavoid the possibility of serious engine damageand premature wear. The use of "budget price"oil is a false economy that must be avoided ifthe maximum reliability and useful life is to beobtained from the vehicle.
SG020B1-E
DAILY OPERATING CHECKS The following items should be checked on a
daily basis or whenever the vehicle is refuelled,whichever occurs sooner.
o Engine oil level.
o Coolant level.
o Power steering fluid level.
o Brake fluid level.
o Windscreen washer fluid level.
o Battery condition.
o Tyre condition and pressures.
o Operation and cleanliness of all lighting equipment.
o Windscreen wiper and washer operation.
o Horn operation.
o Warning light operation.
o Adjustment and cleanliness of mirrors.
o Seat and seat belt adjustment and opera- tion.
o Fluid leakage.
The vehicle must not be driven if the daily
operating checks indicate that any item of equip-ment related to the safety or roadworthiness ofthe vehicle is not functioning correctly. G030B01HP-EAT
Recommended Oil
1. Petrol Engine
