to the removal of salt, mud and other substanc-
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, industrial
precipitation, tree resin, insects  and bird drop-
pings, when not removed immediately.
If water alone  is not strong enough to  remove
the accumulated  dirt, use  a mild car  washing
solution.  Be  sure  to  rinse  the  surface  after
washing to remove the solution. Never allow the
solution to dry on the painted surfaces.

Polishing and Waxing
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.
Always wash and dry the car before polishing or
waxing or using a combination cleaner and wax.
Use a  good quality  commercial  product
follow the manufacturer's directions on the con-
tainer. Polish and wax the bright trim pieces as
well as the paint.

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

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.

Maintaining Bumpers
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.
Special precautions must  be observed to pre-
serve the appearance of  the bumpers on your
Hyundai. They are:

Cleaning the Carpets
Use a  foam-type  carpet cleaner.  Cleaners of
this type are available in aerosol cans  in liquid
form or powder. Read the instructions and follow
them exactly. Using a vacuum cleaner with the
appropriate attachment,  remove as  much dirt
from the  carpets as  possible. Apply the  foam
following the    manufacturer's directions,  then
rub in  overlapping circles.  Do  not add  water.
These cleaners  work best when  the carpet  is
kept as dry as possible.

o
Be careful not  to spill battery electrolyte  or
hydraulic brake fluid on the bumpers. If you
do, wash it off immediately with clean water.
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.
