By using the most advanced design and construction practices to combat corro- sion, Hyundai produces cars of the high- est quality. However, this is only part of the job. To achieve the long term corro- sion resistance your Hyundai can deliver, the owner's cooperation and assistance is also required.
TO HELP PREVENT COR- ROSION E020A01A-AAT You can help prevent corrosion from getting started by observing the follow- ing: E020B01A-AAT Keep Your Car Clean The best way to prevent corrosion is to keep your car clean and free of corrosive 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.
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 electro- lyte or hydraulic brake fluid on the bumpers. If you do, wash it off imme- diately with clean water.
CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE CLEANING THE INTERIOR E040A01A-AAT To Clean the Vinyl Upholstery To clean the vinyl upholstery, first remove loose dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner. Then apply a solution of mild soap or detergent and water using a clean sponge or soft cloth.

Because brakes are essential to the safe operation of the car, it is sug- gested that they be checked and in- spected by your Hyundai dealer. The brakes should be checked and in- spected for wear at those intervals specified in the vehicle maintenance schedule in Section 5.
DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE G120D01A-AAT To Check the Fluid Level OMC055015 The fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir should be checked periodically. The level should be between the "MIN" and "MAX" marks on the side of the reservoir. If the level is at or below the "MIN" mark, care- fully add fluid to bring it up to "MAX".
2. If the air coming out of the in-dash vents is not cold, have the air condi- tioning system inspected by your Hyundai dealer. CAUTION: Running the air conditioning system for extended periods of time with a low refrigerant level may damage the com- pressor.

DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE WARNING: Always read the following in- structions carefully when han- dling a battery. Keep lighted cigarettes and all other flames or sparks away from the battery. Hydrogen, which is a highly combustible gas, is always present in battery cells and may explode if ignited.
If you desire additional information about maintaining and servicing your Hyundai, you may purchase a factory Shop Manual at your Hyundai dealer's parts depart- ment. This is the same manual used by dealership technicians and while it is highly technical it can be useful in obtain- ing a better understanding of your car and how it works.
