so that moisture can escape and not
be trapped inside to ac-celerate
corrosion.
Scratches or chips in the finish should be
covered with "touch-up" paint as soon as
possible to reduce the possibility of

Air pollution or acid rain may damage the
paint and trim through chemical action if
pollutants are allowed to remain in contact
with the surface. If you live near the ocean
or in an area where road salts or dust
control chemicals are used, you should
pay particular attention to the underside of
the car. Start by rinsing the car to remove
dust and loose dirt. In winter, or if you have
driven through mud or muddy water, be
sure to thoroughly clean the underside as
well. Use a hard direct stream of water to
removeaccumulationsofmudorcorrosive
materials. Use a good quality car-washing
solution and follow the manufacturer's
directions on the package. These are
available at your Hyundai dealer or auto
parts outlet. Don't use strong household
detergents, gasoline, strong solvents or
abrasive cleaning powders as these may
damage the finish.

Keep Your Garage Dry
Don't park your car in a damp, poorly
ventilatedgarage.Thiscreatesafavorable
environment for corrosion. This is
particularly true if you wash your car in the
garage or drive it into the garage when it is
still wet or covered with snow, ice or mud.
Even a heated garage can contribute to
corrosion unless it is well ventilated so
moisture is dispersed.

corrosive and may damage painted

Don'tNeglecttheInterior
Moisture can collect under the floor mats
and carpeting to cause corrosion. Check
under the mats periodically to be sure the
carpeting is dry. Use particular care if you
carry fertilizers, cleaning materials or
chemicals in the car.
These should be carried only in proper
containers and any spills or leaks should
be cleaned up, flushed with clean water
and thoroughly dried.
Use a clean sponge or cloth, rinse it
frequently and don't damage the finish by
rubbing too hard. For stubborn spots,
