CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
1- 30 circuits becoming defective, approximately fifty per cent of the normal braking perfor-mance will be available.
If failure of one of the circuits occurs, the
required amount of pedal effort, pedal traveland stopping distance will be increased. Useof the gearbox is recommended to assist inbringing the vehicle to rest. The vehicle mustnot be driven once brake failure has occurreduntil the system has been repaired and isfunctioning normally.
The braking system employs a vacuum servo
in order that the pedal efforts are reduced.Power for the servo is derived from the engineand therefore, in the event of the enginestopping or the vehicle being towed, pedalefforts will be substantially increased.

PARKING BRAKE/BRAKE FLUID LEVEL WARNING LIGHT
WARNING: In the event of problems being suspected with the braking system, the advice of thenearest Hyundai dealer must be soughtbefore the vehicle is driven. Driving thevehicle with either an electrical or hydrau-lic braking system defect may be danger-ous, resulting in accident or personal in-jury. Warning light operation The parking brake/brake fluid level warning light will be illuminated whenever the ignitionswitch is turned to the "ON" position irrespec-tive of whether or not the parking brake isapplied and must be extinguished when theengine starts and the parking brake released. If the warning light fails to extinguish or illumi- nates at any other time, the vehicle must bebrought to rest in a safe location and the levelof brake fluid in the reservoir checked. If thefluid level is incorrect, fluid conforming to DOT3 or DOT 4 specifications should be added. If,after correcting the brake fluid level, the warn-ing light continues to be illuminated, the ad-vice of the nearest Hyundai dealer must besought before the vehicle is driven again.The Hyundai Matrix is equipped with a diago-nally split dual braking system which will en-sure that in the event of one of the brake
CAUTION: If the drive belt (generator belt) is loosen,
broken, or missing while the vehicle is driving, there may be a serious malfunc-tion, engine could overheat because thisbelt also drives the water pump.
SB210M1-E CHARGING SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT
The charging system warning light should
illuminate when the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position and should be extinguishedwhen the engine is started. If the light fails toilluminate when the ignition is turned "ON" orfails to extinguish after starting the engine, thenearest Hyundai dealer should be contacted.If the light illuminates whilst the vehicle isbeing driven, stop the vehicle as soon as it issafe to do so and check the condition of thegenerator drive belt. If the belt is in place andthe tension is satisfactory, the advice of aHyundai dealer should be sought.

tail gate is open or is not fully closed. Ensure that the light has extinguished prior to drivingthe vehicle.
SB2100I-E DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHT
The door ajar warning light indicates that a
door is not correctly closed. Ensure that the light is extinguished prior to driving the vehicle.
SB210P1-E
LOW FUEL LEVEL WARNING LIGHT
The low fuel warning light serves to warn the
driver that the remaining fuel quantity is ap- proximately 9 litres and that the vehicle shouldbe refuelled. If the vehicle is driven for anextended period with the low fuel warning lightilluminated there exists a possibility that mis-firing due to fuel shortage may occur. Thissituation must be avoided to prevent damageto the catalyst occurring.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENTSB210S1-E BRAKE PAD WEAR INDICATOR The front brake disc pads are fitted with an audible wear indicator which will cause a highpitched noise to be emitted when the remain-ing amount of friction lining is below the speci-fied value. When the wear indicator is heard,the brake pads should be replaced withoutdelay to avoid damage occurring to the brakediscs and a severe reduction in braking effi-ciency.
B260N02FC-EAT
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT
This light illuminates when there is a malfunc- tion of an exhaust gas related component,and the system is not functioning properly sothat the exhaust gas regulation values are notsatisfied. This light will illuminate when theignition key is tuned to the "ON" position, andwill go out after the engine start. If it illumi-nates while driving, or does not illuminatewhen the ignition key is turned to the "ON"position, take your car to your nearest autho-rized Hyundai dealer and have the systemchecked.
B260S01B-GAT DIESEL PRE-HEAT INDICATOR LIGHT-AMBER(Diesel Engine)
The indicator light illuminates amber when the ignition switch is placed at the "ON" position.The engine can be started after the pre-heatindicator light goes off. The illuminating timevaries with the water temperature, air tem-perature and battery condition. NOTE: If the engine were not started 10 seconds after the preheating is completed, turn theignition key once more to the "LOCK"position, and then to the "ON" position, inorder to preheat again.
B265A01B-GAT FUEL FILTER WARNING LIGHT-RED (Diesel Engine)
This light illuminates when the ignition switch
is set to the "ON" position and goes off after the engine has started. If it lights up while theengine is running, it indicates that water hasaccumulated inside the fuel filter. If this hap-pens, remove the water from the fuel filter.

If the vehicle is driven at 6mph(10km/h) for
more than 2~3 seconds, the warning chime will sound continuously when the parking brake engaged.
B900A01A-EAT ACOUSTIC WARNING SOUND (Not all models) The acoustic warning chime sounds when the tail lights are on and the door in driver side isopen. This prevents the battery from dis-charging when the car is left with the tail lightson. The chime sounds until the tail lights areturned off.

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.

2- 14 YC200E2-E Trailer or Vehicle Towing Tips
1. Before towing, check hitch and safety chain
connections as well as proper operation of the trailer running lights, brake lights, andturn signals.
2. Always drive your vehicle at a moderate speed (Less than 62 MPH)
3. Trailer towing requires more fuel than nor- mal conditions.
4. To maintain engine braking efficiency and electrical charging performance, do not usefifth gear (manual transaxle) or overdrive(automatic transaxle). Towing Bracket Attachment Location
NOTE:
o The total gross vehicle weight with trailer must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) shown on thevehicle identification plate (see page 8-1). The total gross vehicle weight is thecombined weight of the vehicle, driver,all passengers and their luggage, cargo,hitch, trailer tongue load and other op-tional equipment.
o The front or rear axle weight must not exceed the Gross Axle Weight Rating(GAWR) shown on the vehicle identifi-cation plate (see page 8-1). it is possiblethat your towing package does not ex-ceed the GVWR but exceeds the GAWR.Improper trailer loading and/or too muchluggage in the trunk can overload therear axle. Redistribute the load andcheck the axle weight again. MANUAL

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM

It is of the utmost importance that the following information is read and understood by thevehicle operator in order to prevent operationalproblems arising from damage to the catalyst.Damage to the catalyst will result if contamina-tion occurs through the use of leaded fuel.Whilst the vehicle is fitted with a reduced diam-eter filler neck to prevent charging of the fueltank with a leaded fuel pump nozzle, it ispossible that the use of funnels or jerry cans willpermit leaded fuel to be introduced into the fueltank.The catalyst is intolerant of unburnt fuel andtherefore if an engine misfire condition exists,damage to the catalyst will occur. It is impera-tive that if a misfire condition develops, thevehicle is immediately presented to a Hyundaidealer for rectification. Similarly, the practice ofcertain ignition system diagnosis procedureswhich involve inducing a misfire (cylinder powerbalance tests for example) may result in cata-lyst damage.For these reasons, it is advisable that theexhaust gas emission be tested at each routineservice with a gas analyzer having a Hydrocar-bon measuring facility to ensure continuedreliability of the catalyst.Push or tow starting of the vehicle is to beavoided since unburnt fuel may be enter thecatalyst and result in damage. (Note, it isimpossible to push or tow start a Hyundaimodel equipped with fuel injection since thefuel pump safety interlock will prevent the pumpfrom operating under these conditions).
Operation of the catalyst involves extremelyhigh temperatures being attained within thecatalytic convertor, and although the convertoris fitted with heat shields, it is important that thevehicle is not parked over combustible or vola-tile material which may result in fire.If the above precautions are not adhered to andthe catalyst becomes inoperative, the resultantincrease in core temperature will result in a"melt down" where the catalyst core will meltand subsequently may block the exhaust sys-tem.Due to the fragile nature of the catalyst ele-ment, it is important that damage does notoccur when the vehicle is raised by means of agarage jack. Care must also be exercised toavoid driving over road hazards or debris whichmay cause damage to the catalyst element.
H020D01S-GAT CATALYTIC CONVERTER ; For a diesel engine All Hyundai vehicles are equipped with oxida- tion type catalytic converter to reduce the car-bon monoxide, hydrocarbons and particulatecontained in the exhaust gas.
H020C01S-GAT EGR SYSTEM ; For a diesel engine This system helps control oxides of nitrogen by recirculating a part of the exhaust gas into theengine.
