2003 Hyundai Terracan spare tire

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 17
NOTE:
1. Never load the trailer with more weight in
the back than in the front. About 60% ofthe trailer load should be in the front half on the trailer and the remaining 40% in the rear.
2. The total gross vehicle weight with trailer
must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) shown on the vehicle iden- tification plate (see page 8-1). The total gross vehicle weight is the combined weight of the vehicle, driver, all passen- gers and their luggage, cargo, hitch, trailer tongue load and other optional equip- ment.
3. The front or rear mission weight must not exceed the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) shown on the vehicle identifica- tion plate (see page 8-1). It is possible that your towing package does not exceed the GVWR but exceeds the GAWR. Improper trailer loading and/or too much luggage in the cargo area can overload the rear mis- sion. Redistribute the load and check the mission weight again.
4. The maximum permissible static vertical load on the coupling device is : 5. The maximum permissible overhang of
the coupling point is 1,230 mm.

1. Before towing, check hitch and safety chain connections as well as proper operation of the trailer running lights, brake lights, and turn
signals.
2. Always drive your vehicle at a moderate speed (Less than 100 km/h).
3. Trailer towing requires more fuel than normal conditions.
4. To maintain engine braking efficiency, do not tow a trailer with transmission in fifth gear(manual transmission) or an overdrive gear (automatic transmission).
WARNING:
o Improperly loading your car and trailer
can seriously affect its steering and brak-ing performance causing a crash which could cause injury or death.
o When a trailer is used, the operation speed is restricted to 100km/h or less. Engine

5. Always secure items in the trailer to prevent
load shift while driving.
6. Check the condition and air pressure of all
tires on the trailer and your car. Low tire pressure can seriously affect the handling.
Also check the spare tire.
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 straight ahead. If there is too much wind buffeting slow down to get out of the other vehicle's air turbulence.
8. When parking your car and trailer, especially
on a hill, be sure to follow all the normal precautions. Turn your front wheel into the curb, set the parking brake firmly, and put the transmission in 1st or Reverse (manual) or Park (automatic). In addition, place wheel
chocks at each of the trailer's tires.
9. If the trailer has electric brakes, start your vehicle and trailer moving, and then apply the trailer brake controller by hand to be sure the brakes are working. This lets you check your
electrical connection at the same time.
10. During your trip, check occasionally to be
sure that the load is secure, and that the lights and any trailer brakes are still working.
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 reduced braking effi- ciency.
14. When going down a hill, shift into a lower gear
and use the engine braking effect. When ascending a long grade, downshift the trans- mission to a lower gear and reduce speed to reduce chances of engine overloading and/or overheating.
15. If you have to stop while going uphill, do not
hold the vehicle in place by pressing on the accelerator. This can cause the automatic transmission to overheat. Use the parking brake or footbrake.
NOTE: When towing, check transmission fluid more frequently. CAUTION: If overheating should occur when towing, (temperature gauge reads near red zone), taking the following action may reduce or
eliminate 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 selector in park or neutral and idle theengine at a higher speed.

7. Proceed with caution, keeping alert for fur-
ther signs of overheating. If overheating hap- pens again, call a Hyundai dealer for assis- tance.
CAUTION: Serious loss of coolant indicates there is a leak in the cooling system and this should be checked as soon as possible by a Hyundai dealer. D040A01HP-GAT SPARE TIREThe following instructions for the FULL SIZE spare tire should be observed: Check inflation pressure as soon as possible after installing the spare tire, and adjust to the specified pressure. The tire pressure should be periodically checked and maintained at the spec- ified pressure while the tire is stored.

1. Obtain the spare wheel rod (Jack handle)
after folding up the seat cushion of the second seat . To fold up the seat cushion, refer to the page 1-15. 5. Remove the lift plate from the center of the
spare tire after the spare tire is lowered com- pletely.
Installation is the reverse order of removal. CAUTION: When installing, turn the wheel nut wrench clockwise till you hear the crackle once or
twice(Tightening torque : 3.87 kg m). And make sure the spare tire is secured in the proper location.

D050A01HP-GAT IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRE If a tire goes flat while you are driving:
1. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal and
let the car slow down while driving straight ahead. Do not apply the brakes immediately or attempt to pull off the road as this may cause a loss of control. When the car has slowed to such a speed that it is safe to do so, brake carefully and pull off the road. Drive off the road as far as possible and park on firm, level ground. If you are on a divided highway, do not park in the median area between the two traffic lanes.
2. When the car is stopped, turn on your emer- gency hazard flashers, set the parking brake and put the transmission in "P" (automatic transmission) or reverse (manual transmis- sion).
3. Have all passengers get out of the car. Be
sure they all get out on the side of the car that is away from traffic.
4. Change the tire according to the instructions provided as following. The second seat

When doingthis, be sure that the socket is seated completely over the nut so it cannot slip off. For maximum leverage, position the wrench so the handle is to the right as shown in the illustration. Then, while holding the wrench near the end of the handle, pull up on it with steady pressure. Do not remove the nuts at this time. Just loosen them about one- half turn.

When the release valve is difficult to turn by jack handle, connect the wheel nut wrench to the jack handle. CAUTION:
(1) Use only the jack included with the vehicle
and use it only for changing a wheel andfor installing tire chains.
(2) Position the jack on a hard, level surface.
(3) If the release valve is loosened by turning it 2 or more times in the counterclockwisedirection, the jack's oil will leak and the jack cannot be used.
(4) This jack is hydraulic, and the ram is a two stage type. When both rams are raised and the stop mark of the upper ram be- comes visible, stop jacking immediately.
WARNING: Do not get under the car when it is supported by the jack! This is very dangerous as the vehicle could fall and cause serious injury or death. No one should stay in the car while the jack is being used. D060G01A-AAT 7. Changing Wheels Use the wrench to loosen the wheel nuts, then remove them with your fingers. Remove the wheel cover (if installed) from the wheel and slide the wheel off the studs and lay it flat so it cannot roll away. To put the wheel on the hub, pick up the spare tire, line up the holes with the studs and slide the wheel onto them. If this is difficult, tip the wheel slightly and get the top hole in the wheel lined up with the top stud. Then jiggle the wheel back and forth until the wheel can be slid over the other studs.

Position the jack with the jack handle. Position it only at the specified points indicated in the "Put the Jack in Place". Use of the jack at other points could damage the car. Moving the jack handle up and down to raise the ram. As the jack begins to raise the vehicle, double check that it is properly positioned and will not slip. Raise the car high enough so that the fully inflated spare tire can be installed. To do this, you will need more ground clearance than is required to remove the flat tire. Using the jack handle, turn the release valve counterclockwise slow to lower the ram, and then take out the jack.
