Corrosion protection
Protecting your vehicle from corro-
sion
WARNING
After washing the vehicle, test
the brakes while driving slowly
to see if they have been affected
by water. If braking performance
is impaired, dry the brakes by
applying them lightly while
maintaining a slow forward
speed.
By using the most advanced design
and construction practices to combat
corrosion, HYUNDAI produces cars
of the highest quality. However, this is
only part of the job. To achieve the
long-term corrosion resistance your
vehicle can deliver, the owner's
cooperation and assistance is also
required.
CAUTION
•
Do not use abrasive cleaner,
polishing compound, solvent,
or wire brushes on aluminum
or chrome wheels.
•
•
Clean the wheel when it has
cooled.
Use only a mild soap or neu-
tral detergent, and rinse thor-
oughly with water. Also, clean
the wheels after driving on
salted roads.
Common causes of corrosion
The most common causes of corro-
sion on your vehicle are:
•
Road salt, dirt and moisture that is
allowed to accumulate underneath
the vehicle.

•
Do not wash the wheels with
high-speed car wash brushes.
