Interior Care - Hyundai KONA 2021 Owner's Manual

Keep your garage dry
Don't park your vehicle in a damp,
poorly 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.
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 attention of a qualified body
and paint shop is recommended.
Bird droppings : Bird droppings are
highly corrosive and may damage
painted surfaces in just a few hours.
Always remove bird droppings as soon as
possible.
Don't neglect the interior
Moisture can collect under the floor mats
and vehicle peting to cause corrosion.
Check under the mats periodically to be
sure the carpeting is dry. Use particular
care if you carry fertilizers, cleaning
materials or chemicals in the vehicle.
These should be carried only in proper
containers and any spills or leaks should
be cleaned up, flushed with clean water
and thoroughly dried.

Interior care

Interior general precautions
Prevent chemicals such as perfume,
cosmetic oil, sun cream, hand cleaner
and air freshener from contacting the
interior parts because they may cause
damage or discoloration. If they do
contact the interior parts, wipe them off
immediately.
See the instructions that follow for the
proper way to clean vinyl.
NOTICE
Never allow water or other liquids
to come in contact with electrical/
electronic components inside the
vehicle as this may damage them.
NOTICE
When cleaning leather products
(steering wheel, seats etc.), use neutral
detergents or low alcohol content
solutions. 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.
