ABS SERVICE REMINDER INDICATOR (SRI)(Not all models)
When the key is turned to the "ON" position, the Anti-Lock Brake System SRI will come on and then go off in a few seconds. If the ABS SRI remains on, comes on while driving, or does not come on when the key is turned to the "ON" position, this indicates that there may be a problem with the ABS. If this occurs, have your vehicle checked by your Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. The normal braking system will still be operational, but without the assistance of the anti-lock brake 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 Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. SB210K1-E
OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT
CAUTION: If the oil pressure light illuminates when the engine is running, an insufficient oil pressure level for continued safe opera- tion of the engine exists. Continued opera- tion of the engine in this condition may result in serious engine damage. Under normal circumstances, the light will illuminate when the ignition is turned "on" and will be extinguished when the engine is started.If the oil pressure warning light illuminates whilst the engine is running, stop the engine immediately and check the engine oil level. If the level is insufficient, add the required amount of oil as indicated by the engine oil dipstick. If the light fails to extinguish when the engine is restarted, 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 illuminate when the ignition is turned "on", contact the nearest 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 is indicated.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
circuits becoming defective, approximately fifty per cent of the normal braking perfor- mance will be available. If failure of one of the circuits occurs, therequired amount of pedal effort, pedal travel and stopping distance will be increased. Use of the gearbox is recommended to assist in bringing the vehicle to rest. The vehicle must not be driven once brake failure has occurred until the system has been repaired and is functioning normally. The braking system employs a vacuum servo in order that the pedal efforts are reduced. Power for the servo is derived from the engine and therefore, in the event of the engine stopping or the vehicle being towed, pedal efforts 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 the nearest Hyundai dealer must be sought before the vehicle is driven. Driving the vehicle 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 ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position irrespec- tive of whether or not the parking brake is applied and must be extinguished when the engine starts and the parking brake released. If the warning light fails to extinguish or illumi-nates at any other time, the vehicle must be brought to rest in a safe location and the level of brake fluid in the reservoir checked. If the fluid level is incorrect, fluid conforming to DOT 3 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 be sought 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 loose,broken, or missing whilst the vehicle is driving, there may be a serious malfunc- tion, engine could overheat because this belt also drives the water pump.

HFC3029
The five speed fully synchronized transaxle is controlled by a floor mounted shift lever upon which the shift pattern is indicated. It is impor- tant that when changing gear, the clutch pedal is 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 gradient using 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 or accelerating. Abrupt changes in speed may cause a loss of traction or control of the vehicle.
o During cold weather, shifting may be difficult until the transaxle lubricant haswarmed up. This is normal and not harmful 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 while driving. This can cause unnecessary wear.Do not partially engage the clutch to hold the
car on an incline. This causes unnecessarywear.
Use the parking brake to hold the car on an
incline. Do not operate the clutch pedal rapidlyand repeatedly.
o Anticipate the road and conditions ahead
to enable adjustments in speed to be made smoothly. Avoid heavy acceleration and sharp braking.
o Avoid cruising at unnecessary high speeds.
o Always ensure that the periodic mainte- nance services are performed by a Hyundaidealer at the time and/or mileage intervals specified.
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) posi- tion and release the clutch. Press the clutch pedal 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 shift forks.
