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.
CAUTION: o Do not use strong soap, chemical detergents or hot water, and do not wash the vehicle in direct sunlight or when the body of the vehicle is warm. o Be careful when washing the side windows of your vehicle. Especially, with high-pressure water, water may leak through the windows and wet the interior.
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.
