2017 Hyundai Ioniq Electric Owners Manual

Maintenance
When   cleaning   underneath   the
vehicle, pay  particular attention  to
the components under the  fenders
and  other  areas  that  are  hidden
from view.  Do a thorough  job; just
dampening  the accumulated  mud
rather  than  washing  it   away  will
accelerate  corrosion   rather   than
prevent it.  Water under  high pres-
sure  and   steam  are   particularly
effective in  removing accumulated
mud and corrosive materials.
Keep your garage dry
Interior care
Don’t park your car  in a damp, poor-
ly  ventilated garage. This  creates  a
favorable environment  for corrosion.
This is  particularly  true if  you  wash
your vehicle 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.
Interior general precautions
Prevent  caustic   solutions  such  as
perfume and cosmetic  oil, from con-
tacting  the   interior   parts  because
they  may cause  damage  or  discol-
oration. If they do contact the interior
parts,   wipe  them   off  immediately.
See  the  instructions  for the  proper
way to clean vinyl.
CAUTION
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 accel-
erate corrosion.
Keep paint and trim in good condition
Scratches   or   chips   in  the   finish
should  be  covered  with  "touch-up"
paint as  soon as possible  to reduce
the  possibility  of  corrosion.  If  bare
metal is  showing through, the atten-
tion  of  a  qualified  body  and   paint
shop is recommended.
•  Never allow water or other liq-
uids  to come  in contact  with
electrical/electronic    compo-
nents  inside   the  vehicle   as
this may damage them.
When  cleaning  leather  prod-
ucts   (steering   wheel,  seats
etc.),  use  neutral  detergents
or  low  alcohol  content  solu-
tions. If  you use high  alcohol
content   solutions    or   acid/
alkaline  detergents, the  color
of the leather  may fade or the
surface may get stripped off.
Bird  droppings are  highly  corrosive
and may damage painted surfaces in
just a few hours. Always remove bird
droppings as soon as possible.
