DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 13
SC200B3-E TOWING ATTACHMENTS It is strongly recommended that only an Hyundai Approved towing attachment is usedto ensure that the loads placed upon the bodystructure are correctly distributed. The use ofa non approved attachment will result in theinvalidation of the vehicle warranty. Hyundaitowing attachments are designed and con-structed to ensure maximum towing perfor-mance and ease of fitment. A range of acces-sories including electrical kits are availablethrough the Hyundai dealer network. It is of the utmost importance that those areas of the vehicle which are subjected to greaterstress during towing are maintained in accor-dance with the recommendations given at theend of this book. In addition, the daily operatingchecks relating to engine oil, transmission oiland tyres must be performed at each refuellingto ensure maximum reliability and safety. The use of a proprietary stabiliser will assist in achieving an inherently stable outfit but whilstthe use of such equipment will improve thecharacteristics of a balanced outfit, it will notcompensate for a badly loaded and thereforeunstable outfit. The tyres and braking equipment fitted to the trailer or caravan must be maintained in ac-cordance with the recommendations of themanufacturer. Special attention should be paidto tyres which deteriorate through time and
WARNING:
It is not recommended that the vehicle be
used for towing until the first 1,000 milesof Running In has been completed. AllHyundai MATRIX models are suited to tow-ing trailers and caravans up to the limitsindicated below. MATRIX models fitted withautomatic transaxle have a transaxle oilcooler and further transaxle cooling shouldnot be required. C190E01FC-EAT

exposure rather than as a result of the dis- tances towed. The inside walls of the tyresshould be inspected along with the outsidewalls for cracking and damage. The trailerwheel nut torque must be checked on a regularbasis, preferably before each towing session.
The trailer hitch and the safety catch mecha-
nism must be maintained in good workingorder. The trailer break away cable or chainshould be inspected for damage and shouldbe attached to the vehicle towing attachmenteach and every time the trailer is hitched tothe vehicle.
Whilst towing, the performance of the vehicle
will be reduced in terms of acceleration, brak-ing and handling due to the increased loadsplaced upon the vehicle. The driver shouldanticipate the change in characteristics andadjust the driving style in keeping with thesechanges. Care should be exercised whencornering and braking to prevent the outfitbecoming uncontrollable by reducing corner-ing speeds and allowing increased brakingdistances.
The driver should exercise care to ensure that
when pulling away from rest particularly onuphill gradients the clutch unit is not subjectedto excessive slippage which will reduce theuseful life of this component. Use of the"Overdrive Off" "2" and "L" positions whendriving vehicles with automatic transmission

IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT START Seek assistance from the nearest Hyundai dealer with regard to the method of ignition andfuel system diagnosis.
CAUTION:If the engine refuses to start, no attempt
should be made to push or tow start thevehicle. Vehicles with automatic transaxleor fuel injection will not be able to bestarted in this manner since no drive istransmitted through the automatic transaxlewhilst the engine is not running, and in thecase of fuel injected derivatives, the fuelpump will not operate under tow start con-ditions. In addition, if the vehicle isequipped with an exhaust catalyst, dam-age to the catalyst may result if the vehicleis tow started. SD020B1-E

1. Check fuel Level
2. Check all connectors at ignition coil and spark plugs.Replace any that may be disconnected or loose.
3. Check fuel line in the engine room.
4. If engine still refuses to start, call a Hyundai dealer or seek other qualified assistance.
1. If the vehicle is fitted with manual transaxle,
ensure that the clutch pedal is depressed whilst cranking the engine. If the vehicle isfitted with automatic transaxle, ensurethat the transaxle selector is at the "P"or"N" position.
2. Check the battery terminals and connec- tions to ensure that these are clean andalso tight.
3. If the ignition warning lights dim when the engine is cranked and the battery termi-nals have been checked, a dischargedbattery is indicated.
4. Do not attempt to push or tow start the vehicle, refer to "Jump Starting" for infor-mation regarding engine starting when thebattery is discharged. AD020D1-A

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.

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.

APPEARANCE CARE

Plastic wheel covers should be cleaned using a sponge and water. Cast alloy wheels shouldbe cleaned using a mild soap or neutral deter-gent. Abrasive compounds must not be usedsince in the event of these damaging the lac-quer coating, oxidization of the aluminium wheelwill occur, spoiling the appearance.The use of an a toothbrush will facilitate cleaningbetween the wheel "spokes".
ensure that accidental spillages are immediatelyflushed with water.Do not use abrasive cleaning materials whichmay damage the bumpers.Avoid subjecting the bumpers to high tempera-tures such as may be encountered in high bakepaint ovens.
SE040B1-E STAIN/SPOT REMOVALShould tree sap, dead insects or tar prove to be difficult to remove from the paint film, turpentineor a proprietary paint cutting compound may beused. Ensure that the area to be cleaned is notrubbed intensively to prevent breaking throughthe colour coat and exposing the under coat. SE040C1-E POLISHINGThe exterior paint work should be polished with a proprietary wax polish when water no longercollects in bead form on the paint work. Theinstructions of the product manufacturer shouldbe adhered to. SE040E1-E BUMPER MAINTENANCE The special material from which the bumpers are manufactured warrants special attention to pre-serve the appearance of the bumpers. Avoidcontact with battery electrolyte or brake fluid and SE040F1-E ACCIDENT REPAIRS In the event of the body work sustaining damage, the following points should be noted prior torepairs being undertaken.If body panels are replaced or repaired, anticorrosion treatment must be applied to the repairarea. The product used must be compatible withthose used in manufacture. It is recommendedthat repairs are entrusted to a Hyundai dealer toensure that replacement parts used are of thesame high quality as those used in manufactureof the vehicle and that the correct repair methodsand materials will ensure adequate levels ofcorrosion protection and the continued validity ofthe Anti Perforation Warranty.

Specified Scheduled Procedures The Specified scheduled procedures are listed
in the maintenance charts beginning at page 5-2. The operations specified must be per-formed at the time or mileage intervals shownirrespective of whether the mileage intervalhas been reached before the specified timeinterval.
Certain lubricants and components degrade
with both time and mileage (e.g. engine oil andbrake fluid) and therefore it is not permissableto base the maintenance schedule upon mile-age alone. It is strongly recommended thatthe maintenance operations are performed bythe factory-trained or distributor-trained tech-nicians at your Hyundai dealer because of the need for specialized knowledge and toolingand to ensure that no possibility of invalidatingthe manufacturers warranty exists.
The maintenance schedules relate to ve-
hicles operated under normal conditions, ve-hicles which are operated under adverseconditions will require more frequent mainte-nance which is described at page 5-5.
SF030B1-E
SERVICE HISTORY It is important that all scheduled maintenance
services are recorded in the warranty andservice passport to ensure that proof of main-tenance is available when warranty service isrequired.

Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and connec- tions for leakage and damage. Replace anydamaged or leaking parts immediately.
WARNING (Diesel only): Never work on injection system with en-gine running or within 30 seconds aftershutting 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. 6ZF060E1-A
o Timing belt Replace timimg belt and inspect all associated parts related for damage and deformation.Replace any damaged parts immediately. 6ZF060G1-A
o Vapour hose and fuel filler cap The vapour hose and fuel filler cap should be inspected at those intervals specified in themaintenance schedule. Make sure that a newvapour hose or fuel filler cap is correctlyreplaced. 6ZF060F1-A
o Vacuum, crankcase
ventilation hoses
Inspect the surface of hoses for evidence of heat and/or mechanical damage. Hard andbrittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, abra-sions, and excessive swelling indicate dete-rioration. Particular attention should be paid toexamining those hose surfaces nearest tohigh heat sources, such as the exhaustmanifold.Inspect the hose routing to assure that thehoses do not come in contact with any heatsource, sharp edges or moving componentwhich might cause heat damage or mechani-cal wear. Inspect all hose connections, suchas clamps and couplings, to make sure theyare secure, and that no leaks are present.Hoses should be replaced immediately if thereis any evidence of deterioration or damage.
6ZF060A1-A
EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS
6ZF060M1-A
o Engine oil and filter The engine oil and filter should be changed at
the intervals specified in the maintenance schedule. If the car is being driven in severeconditions, more frequent oil and filter changesare required.
6ZF060B1-A
o Drive belts Inspect all drive belts for evidence of cuts,
cracks, excessive wear or oil saturation andreplace if necessary. Drive belts should bechecked periodically for proper tension andadjusted as necessary.
6ZF060C1-A
o Fuel filter A clogged filter can limit the speed at which the
vehicle may be driven, damage the emissionsystem and cause hard starting. If an exces-sive amount of foreign matter accumulates inthe fuel tank, the filter may require replace-ment more frequently.
After installing a new filter, run the engine for
several minutes, and check for leaks at theconnections.
