2011 Hyundai Genesis Owners Manual

Maintenance
When  cleaning   underneath  the   car,
give particular  attention to the compo-
nents  under   the  fenders   and  other
areas that are  hidden from view. Do  a
thorough job; just dampening the accu-
mulated  mud  rather  than  washing  it
away  will  accelerate  corrosion  rather
than prevent it. Water under high pres-
sure and  steam are  particularly effec-
tive in removing accumulated mud and
corrosive materials.
When   cleaning   lower  door   panels,
rocker panels and  frame members, be
sure that drain holes  are kept open so
that moisture  can  escape and  not be
trapped inside to accelerate corrosion.
Keep paint and trim in good condition     Interior care
Scratches or chips in the finish should be

Interior general precautions
covered with "touch-up" paint as soon as
possible to  reduce the possibility  of cor-
rosion. If bare metal  is showing through,
the attention of a qualified body and paint
shop is recommended.
Prevent  caustic  solutions  such  as per-
fume  and  cosmetic  oil  from contacting
the dashboard because  they may cause
damage or  discoloration. If they do  con-
tact the dashboard, wipe them  off imme-
diately. See the instructions that follow for
the proper way to clean vinyl.
Bird droppings : Bird droppings are high-
ly  corrosive  and  may  damage  painted
surfaces  in   just  a   few  hours.  Always
remove bird droppings as soon as possi-
ble.
CAUTION
•  Never allow water or other liquids
to  come  in  contact  with  electri-
cal/electronic components  inside
the  vehicle as  this  may  damage
them.
Don't neglect the interior
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.
Keep your garage dry
When  cleaning  leather  products
(steering  wheel,  seats  etc.), use
neutral detergents or  low alcohol
content solutions. If you use high
content    solutions    or
Don't  park  your  car in  a  damp,  poorly
ventilated  garage. This  creates a  favor-
able  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.
