SRS (Airbag) Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)(If Installed)
The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) comes on and flashes for about 6 seconds after theignition key is turned to the "ON" position or afterthe engine is started, after which it will go out. This light also comes on when the SRS is not working properly. If the SRI does not come on,or continuously remains on after flashing forabout 6 seconds when you turned the ignitionkey to the "ON" position or started the engine,or if it comes on while driving, have the SRSinspected by an authorized Hyundai Dealer. B260C01A-AAT
O/D OFF Indicator (If Installed)
When the overdrive switch is turned on, the overdrive off indicator will go out. This amberindicator will be illuminated when the overdriveswitch is turned off.
B260P02Y-GAT
ABS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI) (If Installed)
When the key is turned to the "ON" position, the Anti-Lock Brake System will come on and thengo off in a few seconds. If the ABS SRI remainson, comes on while driving, or does not comeon when the key is turned to the "ON" position,this indicates that there may be a problem withthe ABS.If this occurs, have your vehicle checked byyour Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. Thenormal braking system will still be operational,but without the assistance of the anti-lock brakesystem.
B260F01A-AAT High Beam Indicator Light
The high beam indicator light comes on when-
ever the headlights are switched to the highbeam or flash position.
B260D01A-AAT Turn Signal Indicator Lights
The blinking green arrows on the instrument panel show the direction indicated by the turnsignals. If the arrow comes on but does notblink, blinks more rapidly than normal, or doesnot illuminate at all, a malfunction in the turnsignal system is indicated. Your dealer shouldbe consulted for repairs. B260G01A-AAT
Low Oil Pressure Warning Light
CAUTION: If the oil pressure warning light stays on while the engine is running, serious enginedamage may result. The oil pressure warn- ing light comes on whenever there is insuf- ficient oil pressure. In normal operation, itshould come on when the ignition switch isturned on, then go out when the engine isstarted. If the oil pressure warning lightstays on while the engine is running, theremay be a serious malfunction.If this happens, stop the car as soon as it issafe to do so, turn off the engine and checkthe oil level. If the oil level is low, fill theengine oil to the proper level and start theengine again. If the light stays on with theengine running, turn the engine off immedi-ately. In any instance where the oil lightstays on when the engine is running, theengine should be checked by an authorizedHyundai dealer before the car is driven again.
CAUTION: If both ABS SRI and Parking Brake/Brakefluid level warning lights remain "ON" orcome on while driving, there may be a prob-lem with E.B.D (Electronic Brake Force Dis-tribution).If this occurs, avoid sudden stops and haveyour vehicle checked by your Hyundai dealeras soon as possible.

If the ABSSRI remains on, comes on while driving, ordoes not come on when the key is turned tothe "ON" position, this indicates that theremay be a problem with the ABS. If this occurs, have your vehicle checked by your Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. Thenormal braking system will still be operational,but without the assistance of the anti-lockbrake system.
CAUTION: If the both ABS SRI and Parking Brake/
Brake fluid level warning lights remain "ON" or come on while driving, there may be a
problem with E.B.D (Electronic Brake Force
Distribution).
If this occurs, avoid sudden stops and
have your vehicle checked by your Hyundaidealer as soon as possible. SB210K1-E
OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT
CAUTION: If the oil pressure light illuminates when the engine is running, an insufficient oilpressure level for continued safe opera-tion of the engine exists. Continued opera-tion of the engine in this condition mayresult in serious engine damage. Under normal circumstances, the light will illuminate when the ignition is turned "on" andwill be extinguished when the engine is started. If the oil pressure warning light illuminates whilst the engine is running, stop the engineimmediately and check the engine oil level. Ifthe level is insufficient, add the required amountof oil as indicated by the engine oil dipstick. Ifthe light fails to extinguish when the engine isrestarted, do not continue to operate the ve-hicle. If the oil pressure light illuminates during nor- mal operation and the cause is not an insuffi-cient oil level, or the light fails to illuminatewhen the ignition is turned "on", contact thenearest Hyundai dealer before further operat-ing the vehicle.
SB210G1-E TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR LIGHT
Operation of a turn signal is indicated by the warning light located in the instrument cluster.If the light fails to illuminate or does not flash,a malfunction within the turn signal system isindicated.

SRS (Airbag) SERVICE REMINDER INDICATOR
The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) comes on and flashes for about 6 secondsafter the ignition key is turned to the "ON"position or after the engine is started, afterwhich it will go out. This light also comes on when the SRS is not working properly. If the SRI does not come on, or continuously remains on after flashing for about 6 secondswhen you turned the ignition key to the "ON"position or started the engine, or if it comes onwhile driving, have the SRS inspected by anauthorized Hyundai Dealer.

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.
SB210L2-E
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

NORMAL CONDITIONS The Starting Procedure:
1. Insert key, and fasten the seat belt.
2. Depress the clutch pedal fully and place the gearshift lever (manual transaxle) in neutral or the selector lever (automatictransaxle) in "P" (park) position.
3. After turning the ignition key to the "ON" position, make certain all warning lightsand gauges are functioning properly be-fore starting the engine.
4. On vehicles equipped with the diesel pre- heat indicator light, turn the ignition key tothe "ON" position. The diesel pre-heat indi-cator light will first illuminate in amber, andthen after a short time, the amber illumina-tion will goes off, indicating that preheatingis completed. SC060B1-E FUEL ECONOMY
The following suggestions are made to assist in achieving the greatest degree of fueleconomy.
o Maintaining a constant check on fuel con- sumption will enable the most economicaluse pattern and driving style to be adopt-ed.
o Avoid using the vehicle for very short jour- neys if possible, particularly when a coldstart is involved.
o Ensure that tyre pressures are maintained at the correct level.
o Use only the recommended grade of fuel.
o Avoid carrying unnecessary weight, and if a roof rack is in use, remove it as soon aspossible after use.
o Anticipate the road and conditions ahead to enable adjustments in speed to be madesmoothly. Avoid heavy acceleration andsharp braking.
NOTE: If the engine were not started 10 seconds
after the preheating is completed, turn the ignition key once more to the "LOCK"position, and then to the "ON" position, inorder to preheat again.
WARNING: Be sure that the clutch is fully depressed
when starting a manual transaxle vehicle. Otherwise there is the potential to cause damage to the vehicle or injury to some-
one inside or outside the vehicle as aresult of the forward or backward move-ment of the vehicle that will occur if theclutch is not depressed when the vehicle isstarted.
5. Turn the ignition key to the "Start" position and release it when the engine starts.
C055B01B-GAT
STARTING AND STOPPING THE EN- GINE FOR TURBO CHARGER INTER- COOLER (DIESEL ENGINE)
(1) Do not race the engine or sudden acceler-
ate the engine immediately after start it. If the engine is cold, allow the engine to idlefor several seconds before it is driven toensure sufficient lubrication of the turbocharger unit.
(2) After high speed or extended driving, re- quiring a heavy engine load, the engineshould be allowed to idle about 1 minutebefore turning it off. This idle time will allow the turbo charger tocool prior to shutting the engine off.
WARNING: Do not turn the engine off immediately after it has been subjected to a heavy load.Doing so may cause severe damage to theengine or turbo charger unit.

MANUAL TRANSAXLE
HFC3029
The five speed fully synchronized transaxle is controlled by a floor mounted shift lever uponwhich the shift pattern is indicated. It is impor-tant that when changing gear, the clutch pedalis fully depressed to avoid transaxle damage. CAUTION:
o Do not attempt to engage reverse gear
when the car is in motion.
o To avoid damaging the selector mecha- nism, do not use the gear shift lever as a hand rest. Release the lever immedi-ately the shift is completed.
o To avoid premature clutch wear, do not use the clutch pedal as a foot rest, anddo not hold the vehicle on a gradientusing the clutch.
o Ensure that the engine is not over-revved by upshifting before the tachometerneedle enters the red zone.
o Do not coast with the shift lever at the neutral position.
o When descending long gradients, make use of the engine braking to assist thefootbrake to avoid brake fade or over-heating.
o When slippery conditions are encoun- tered, increased caution should be ex-ercised when gear changing, braking oraccelerating. Abrupt changes in speedmay cause a loss of traction or controlof the vehicle.
o The starter motor will not operate un- less the clutch pedal is depressed whilstthe engine is being started.
o During cold weather, shifting may be difficult until the transaxle lubricant haswarmed up. This is normal and notharmful to the transaxle. SC090B1-F
Using the Clutch The clutch should be pressed all the way to
the floor before shifting, then released slowly.Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal whiledriving.
This can cause unnecessary wear. Do not partially engage the clutch to hold the
car on an incline. This causes unnecessary wear.
Use the parking brake to hold the car on an
incline. Do not operate the clutch pedal rapidlyand repeatedly.
o Avoid cruising at unnecessary high speeds.
o Always ensure that the periodic mainte-
nance services are performed by a Hyundai dealer at the time and/or mileage intervalsspecified.
o Use the air conditioning only when neces- sary.
o If you 've come to a complete stop and it's hard to shift into 1 st
or R(Reverse),
put the shift lever in N(Neutral) position and release the clutch. Press the clutchpedal back down, and then shift into 1 st
or R(Reverse) gear position.
o Do not use the shift lever as a handrest during driving, as this can result inpremature wear of the transaxle shiftforks.
