2003 Hyundai Matrix key

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
2- 12 NOTE: Never allow undiluted screen washer fluid additive to spill upon the paintwork or useengine coolant anti-freeze since damage tothe paintwork may result.
o When driving in extreme conditions, the windscreen wiper blades may fail to clearthe screen properly due to the formation ofice upon the blade edge. It will therefore benecessary to periodically remove such iceto restore their efficiency.
o If the power operated door mirrors become frozen, attempts to adjust these may dam-age the mechanism.
o The formation of snow or ice built up inside the wheel arches may interfere with theroad wheels or steering mechanism. Insuch instances, unusual noises or an in-crease in steering effort may result. There-fore, ensure that the wheel arches arechecked periodically and any accumulatedsnow or ice removed.
o It is advisable to carry emergency equip- ment including, torch, shovel, tow rope,blankets etc., if a journey is to be under-taken into areas of severe road conditions.

Door Locks
Should the door lock mechanism becomefrozen, a proprietary lock de-icer should beused. Alternatively, warming the door keymay thaw the door lock. However, the keyshould be handled carefully to avoid burningthe fingers. Never attempt to thaw a frozen door lock using hot water, since the water will eventu-ally freeze and compound the problem. NOTE: The proper temperature for using the im-mobilizer key is from -40°F to 176°F (-40°Cto 80°C). If you heat the immobilizer keyover 176°F (80°C) to open the frozen lock,it may cause damage to the transponderin its head.
SC170E1-E Windscreen Washers and Wipers The windscreen washer bottle should be filled
with a solution of water and a proprietary winter screen wash additive. The windscreenwipers should not be used if the blades arefrozen to the windscreen or if they are cov-ered with snow, before this is removed.

Electrical System
Winter conditions impose severe demandsupon vehicle electrical systems, particularlythe charging circuit. The battery condition andperformance along with the alternator perfor-mance and drive belt condition should bechecked prior to the onset of winter. ZC170C1-E Anti-freeze/Corrosion inhibitorThe cooling system must always contain an Ethylene-Glycol based anti-freeze solution.The system is filled during manufacture withsolution of the correct strength which shouldbe checked before the onset of winter andadjusted or changed as required. NOTE: The anti-freeze solution contains a corro-sion inhibitor to prevent degradation of thealuminum castings contained within theengine. Therefore, never, drain the systemand refill with water only. In addition, anti-freeze solution must ALWAYS be used in vehicles fitted with air conditioning,to prevent the heater matrix from freezing andsubsequently bursting with the refrigerationsystem in use.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
3-8 The vehicle may be towed by the conven-
tional method using the towing eye at the front of the vehicle as an attachment point. Inaddition, a suspended tow with or without anambulance may be used with either the frontor the rear wheels being suspended, providedthe above caution is observed. In addition, the following points must be noted:
o If towing by conventional means, the ignition key must be at the "ACC" posi- tion, otherwise the steering lock will beactivated.
o Because the brake system and steering system power assistance is derived fromthe engine, the amount of effort re-quired to stop or steer the vehicle willbe greater than normal. o If a suspended tow is being given to the
rear, the ignition key must be at the"ACC" position since the steering lockis not designed to withstand the forcerequired to hold the front wheels straightduring the tow.
o The vehicle must not be towed with the front wheels on the ground for morethan thirty miles.
o OK FOR AUTOMATIC OR MANUAL

CAUTION: The following restriction must be observed in order to avoid serious damage to thetransaxle . The vehicle must never be towed from the rear with the front wheels on the ground. The vehicle must not be towed until transaxle fluid has been added to bringthe level up to the "HOT" marking on thedipstick. (The level will need to be reducedagain after towing). The vehicle must not be towed at speeds faster than 25 mph. or distances greaterthan fifty miles. The general points regard-ing the steering lock etc. described in thepreceding section (Manual transaxle ve-hicle) should be observed.
