2003 Hyundai Matrix spare wheel

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 15
5. Always secure items in the trailer to pre-
vent load shift while driving.
6. Check the condition and air pressure of all tyres on the trailer and your car. Low tyre pressure can seriously affect the handling.Also check the spare tyre.
7. The vehicle/trailer combination is more af- fected by crosswind and buffeting. When being passed by a large vehicle, keep a constant speed and steer straightahead. If there is too much wind buffetingslow down to get out of the other vehicle'sair turbulence.
8. When parking your car and trailer, espe- cially on a hill, be sure to follow all thenormal precautions. Turn your front wheelinto the curb, set the parking brake firmly,and put the transaxle in 1st or Reverse(manual) or Park (automatic). In addition,place wheel chocks at each of the trailer'styres.
9. If the trailer has electric brakes, start your vehicle and trailer moving, and then applythe trailer brake controller by hand to besure the brakes are working. This lets youcheck your electrical connection at thesame time.
10.During your trip, check occasionally to be sure that the load is secure, and that thelights and any trailer brakes are still work-ing. 11.Avoid jerky starts, sudden acceleration or
sudden stops.
12.Avoid sharp turns and rapid lane changes.
13.Avoid holding the brake pedal down too long or too frequently. This could cause the brakes to overheat, resulting in re-duced braking efficiency.
14.When going down a hill, shift into a lower gear and use the engine braking effect. When ascending a long grade, downshift the transaxle to a lower gear and reducespeed to reduce chances of engine over-loading and/or overheating.
15.If you have to stop while going uphill, do not hold the vehicle in place by pressing onthe accelerator. This can cause the auto-matic transaxle to overheat. Use the park-ing brake or footbrake.
NOTE: When towing check transaxle fluid more frequently. CAUTION: If overheating should occur when towing,(temperature gauge reads near red zone),taking the following action may reduce oreliminate the problem.
1. Turn off the air conditioner.
2. Reduce highway speed.
3. Select a lower gear when going uphill.
4. While in stop and go traffic, place the gear selection in park or neutral and idle the engine at a higher speed.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
WARNING: While the engine is running, keep hands
and clothing away from moving parts such as the fan and drive belts to preventinjury.
WARNING (Diesel only): Never work on injection system with en-
gine running or within 30 seconds after shutting off engine. High pressure pump,rail, injectors and high pressure pipes aresubject to high pressure even after theengine stopped. The fuel jet produced byfuel leaks may cause serious injury, if ittouch the body. People using pacemak-ers should not move than 30cm closer tothe ECU or wiring harness within theengine room while engine is running,since the high currents in the CommonRail system produce considerable mag-netic fields.
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken or coolant is leaking out, stop the engine immediately and call the nearest Hyundaidealer for assistance.
WARNING: Do not remove the radiator cap when the
engine is hot since steam and boiling wa- ter may be ejected from the radiator result-ing in burns or scalding. D040A01FC-EAT TEMPORARY SPARE TYREThe following instructions for the temporary spare tyre should be observed:
1. Check inflation pressure as soon as pos-
sible after installing the spare tyre, and adjust to the specified pressure. The tyrepressure should be periodically checkedand maintained at the specified pressurewhile the tyre is stored. 2. The spare tyre should only be used tem-
porarily and should be returned to theluggage compartment as soon as the origi-nal tyre can be repaired or replaced.
3. Continuous use at speeds of over 80 km/h (50 mph) is not recommended.
4. As the temporary spare tyre is specifically designed for your car, it should not beused on any other vehicle.
5. The temporary spare tyre should not be used on any other wheels, nor shouldstandard tyre, snow tyre, wheel covers ortrim rings be used with the temporaryspare wheel. If such use is attempted,damage to these items or other car com-ponents may occur.
6. The temporary spare tyre pressure should be checked once a month while the tyre isstored.
CAUTION:
o Do not use snow chains with your tem- porary spare tyre.
o Do not use more than one temporary spare tyre at a time.
Spare Tyre Pressure
Type Size Inflation Pressure T115/70R(D)15420 kPa (60 psi)6. If the cause of the overheating cannot be
found, wait until the engine temperature has returned to normal. Then, if coolanthas been lost, carefully remove the radia-tor cap and add water to bring the fluid levelin the reservoir up to the base of theradiator fill opening. Fill the coolant expan-sion tank to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution until it is established that the engine is operating normally. If theengine overheats repeatedly, the advice ofa Hyundai dealer should be sought.
CAUTION: Serious loss of coolant indicates there is a leak in the cooling system and thisshould be checked as soon as possibleby a Hyundai dealer.

VEHICLE TOWING OR RECOVERY
The pressure of the spare tyre should be checked at the first available opportunity. Ifany doubt exists as to the tyre pressure, thevehicle should be driven slowly to the nearestservice station and the tyre pressure checkedand adjusted as required. If the valve cap is lost from any of the valves, a replacement should be obtained and fittedat the first available opportunity. The valvecap prevents the ingress of dirt which maycause the valve to stick and therefore leakand is part of the valve sealing function. Ensure that the spare wheel, jack and wheel nut wrench as well tools are correctly locatedin the boot of the vehicle to prevent damageand noise. CAUTION:
An incorrect tow or recovery could result
in serious damage to the vehicle. If anydamage to the suspension, steering ortransaxle is apparent or suspected, a tow-ing ambulance must be used.

CONSUMER INFORMATION
8-2 NOTE:
o Do not use the temporary spare tyre for tyre rotation.
o Aluminium wheels which are not sup- plied as Original Equipment should not be mixed on the same vehicle withthe original steel wheels. However, it isacceptable that the steel spare wheelbe used in conjunction with OriginalEquipment aluminium wheels since theoffset of both wheels is compatible.Radial and cross ply tyres should notbe mixed on the same vehicle.
I060A01FC-EAT
TYRE ROTATION
The tyre wear characteristics will vary be-
tween each tyre dependant upon the condi-tions of use. It is normal for the front tyres towear more rapidly than those fitted to the rearof the vehicle and therefore tyre rotation willprovide a means of helping to ensure an evenwear rate across the tyre set. For vehiclesfitted with radial ply tyres, rotation should beconfined to front to rear tyre alternation. It isnot recommended that radial ply tyres berotated from side to side. SI060A1-E
TYRE BALANCING Incorrect tyre balance will cause steering
vibration and uneven tyre wear. The vehicletyres are balanced during production but mayneed further balancing throughout the life ofthe tyres.
It is recommended that the tyres be balanced
on the car for best results and that the tyres arebalanced whenever they have been removedfrom the wheel for repair.
SI030A2-E
SNOW TYRES If it is desired to fit snow tyres to the vehicle,
it must be ascertained that the original sizeand load carrying capacity are met by thereplacement tyres. When using snow tyres,the vehicle should not be driven at speeds inexcess of 60 MPH.
SI040A1-E
TYRE CHAINS
Tyre chains, if necessary, should be installed
on the front wheels. Be sure that the chains arethe proper size and that they are installed inaccordance with the manufacturer's instruc-tions.
To minimize tyre and chain wear, do not contin-
ue to use tyre chains when they are no longerneeded.
CAUTION:When driving on roads covered with snow
or ice, drive at less than 20 mph (30 km/h). Tyre pressures should be increased by 3 psi
when the vehicle is driven fully laden or underconditions of sustained high speed motoring.
