APPEARANCE CARE
Have the underbody checked regularly (au-
tumn and spring) and have additional protec-
tion treatment carried out as required. As not all
of the commercially available materials are
suitable for use on your vehicle, it is recom-
mended that you have this work done at an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
When washing the vehicle, especially in winter,
spray the underbody with water to remove dirt
and dust which might contain salts, road chemi-
cals, etc.
Clean the carpeting with a vacuum cleaner and
remove any stains with carpet cleaner.
Oil and grease can be removed by lightly
dabbing with a clean colorfast cloth and ben-
zene or spot remover.

Load weight and driving speed
Remove any luggage, etc., which is not neces-
sary from the vehicle. The load weight placed
on the roof or towed in a trailer also should not
be excessive.
Correctly adjusting the air pressure of the tires
before driving under maximum load weight con-
ditions and before driving long distances is
especially important.

Damaged paint
Small cracks and scratches in the paint coat
should be touched up as soon as possible with
HYUNDAI paint pencil or spray paint to prevent
corrosion. Check body areas facing the road or
the tires especially carefully for damage to the
paint coat caused by flying stones, etc. The
paint code number for your vehicle can be
found on the vehicle information code plate.

Tire replacement
Engine compartment
Tires which do not meet the size specifications
must not be used. Replacement of the tires
must be made as a set of the two front tires, the
two rear tires, or all four tires.
A mixture of bias-ply tires and radial tires must
not be used. Consult an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer regarding tire replacement.
Clean the engine compartment at the beginning
and end of winter. Pay particualr attention to
flanges, crevices, and peripheral parts where
dust containing road chemicals and other cor-
rosive materials might collect.
If salt and other chemicals are used on the
roads in your area, clean the engine compart-
ment at least every three months.
F010M01P-GAT
Tar
If tar becomes adhered to the vehicle, use
special tar remover to remove it as soon as
possible. If the tar leaves a stain, polish the
affected area.
F010Q01P-GAT
Kerb parking
F010K01P-GAT
If the tires strike a kerb or concrete parking
barrier, they could be damaged, and this dam-
age could become a source of extreme danger
when the vehicle is subsequently driven at high
speed. If the vehicle is to be driven or onto a
kerb or any other such barrier, it should be
driven slowly and at an appropriate angle to the
kerb or barrier.
Upholstery and Interior
To maintain the value of your new vehicle,
handle the upholstery carefully and keep the
interior clean.
Use a vacuum cleaner and brush to clean the
seats. If stained, vinyl and synthetic leather
should be cleaned with an appropriate cleaner,
and cloth fabrics can be cleaned with either
upholstery cleaner or a 3% solution of neutral
detergent in lukewarm water.
F010N01P-GAT
Plastic and rubber parts
Use a soft cloth and wash with water. If neces-
sary, a cleaning agent specially designed for
plastics can be used. If engine oil, brake fluid,
battery fluid, etc., comes in contact with these
parts, wash promptly with water and then use
alcohol to remove the stain completely.
