Spot Cleaning
Don't use gasoline, strong solvents or
corrosive cleaning agents. These can
damage the finish of the car. To re-
move road tar, use turpentine on a
clean, soft cloth. Be gentle.
To remove dead insects or tree sap,
use warm water and mild soap or car-
washing solution. Soak the spot and
rub gently. If the paint has lost its
luster, use a commercial car-cleaning
polish.

Polishing and Waxing
Always wash and dry the car before
polishing or waxing or using a combi-
nation cleaner and wax. Use a good
quality commercial product and follow
the manufacturer's directions on the
container. Polish and wax the bright
trim pieces as well as the paint.

When to Wax Again
You should polish and wax the car
again when water no longer beads on
a clean surface but spreads out over a
larger area.

Maintaining Bumpers
Special precautions must be observed
to preserve the appearance of the
bumpers on your Hyundai. They are:
o Be careful not to spill battery elec-
trolyte or hydraulic brake fluid on the
bumpers. If you do, wash it off
immediately with clear water.
o Be gentle when cleaning the bumper
sur-faces. They are made of soft
plastic and the surface can be dam-
aged if mistreated. Do not use abra-
sive cleaners. Use warm water and
mild soap or car-washing solution.
o 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.
CAUTION:
!
o Water washing in the engine com-
partment including high pressure
water washing may cause the fail-
ure of electrical circuits located in
the engine compartment.
o Never allow water or other liquids
to come in contact with electrical/
electronic components inside the
vehicle as this may damage them.
