When to Wax Again
To Clean the Vinyl Upholstery
Cleaning the Seat Belts
You should polish and wax the car again when
water no longer  beads on a clean  surface but
spreads out  over a larger  area.
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.
To clean the seat  belts, use a cloth or sponge
with mild soap or detergent and warm water. Do
not use strong detergents, dye, bleach or abra-
sive  materials on  the  seat belts  as  this may
weaken the  fabric.
While cleaning  the belts, inspect  them for ex-
cessive  wear, cuts,  fraying  or other  signs  of
damage and  replace them if  necessary.

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

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

Cleaning the Carpets
You may use any household window cleaner on
the windows.  However, when cleaning  the in-

the rear  window defroster wiring.
o
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 direc-
tions, then rub in overlapping circles. Do not add
water.  These  cleaners  work  best  when  the
carpet is  kept as dry  as possible.
