SG220A1-E ELECTRIC COOLING FANS WARNING: The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature and may sometimesoperate even when the engine is not run-ning. Use extreme caution when workingnear the blades of the cooling fan so thatyou are not injured by a rotating fan blade.As the engine coolant temperature decreas-es, the fan will automatically shut off. Thisis a normal condition. The engine cooling fan should operate before the temperature gauge reaches the upper por-tion of the scale and the condenser fan shouldoperate whenever the air conditioning is in use.
o Batteries must only be charged in well
ventilated areas from which naked lights orsources of sparks are excluded.
o Ensure that children, pets or other unauthorised persons are kept away frombatteries.
o Do not allow anything to bridge the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the battery.
o Never invert the battery. The battery fitted during production is of the "Maintenance Free" type.
OWNER MAINTENANCE 6-25
5. Push the bulb spring for removing the
headlight bulb.
6. Remove the protective cap from the re- placement bulb and install the new bulb by matching the plastic base with the headlighthole. Install the dust cover after retighteningthe bulb spring and reconnect the powercord.
7. Use the protective cap and carton to dis- pose of the old bulb.
8. Check for proper headlight aim.
WARNING The halogen bulb contains gas under
pressure and if impacted could shatter, resulting in flying fragments. Always weareye protection when servicing the bulb.

3. Disconnect the power cord from the bulb base in the back of the headlight.
4. Remove the dust cover.
5. Open the bonnet.
6. Draw the vertical line (through the centreof each headlight beam pattern) and the horizontal line (through the centre of eachheadlight beam pattern) on the aimingscreen. And then, draw the horizontal parallel line at 1.18 in. (30 mm) under the horizontalline.
7. Adjust each cut-off line of the low beam to the parallel line with a phillips screwdriver- VERTICAL AIMING
8. Adjust each cut-off line of the low beam to each vertical line with a phillips screw-driver - HORIZONTAL AIMING.

HEADLIGHT AIMING ADJUSTMENT
Before performing aiming adjustment, makesure of the following.
1. Keep all tyres inflated to the correct pres- sure.
2. Place the vehicle on level ground and press the front bumper & rear bumper down sev-eral times. Place the vehicle at a distanceof 118 in. (3,000 mm) from the test wall.
3. See that the vehicle is unloaded (except for full levels of coolant, engine oil and fuel,and spare tyre, jack, and tools).
4. Clean the head lights lens and turn on the headlight (Low beam).

Horizontal Aiming
Vertical Aiming
Protect the bulb against abrasions or scratches and against liquids whenlighted. Turn on the bulb only when in-stalled in a headlight. Replace the head-light if damaged or cracked. Keep thebulb out of the reach of children anddispose of the used bulb with care.

7. EMISSION
CONTROL SYSTEM
SH010A1-E EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS (Not all models) Depending upon the market for which the ve-hicle is destined, the emission control systemwill comprise one or more of the followingemission control devices. (1) Crankcase emission control system (2) Evaporative emission control system (3) Exhaust emission control system In order that the proper functioning of the emis- sion control systems may be ensured, it isrecommended that the vehicle is inspected andmaintained by an Hyundai authorised repairerin accordance with the maintenance schedulein this manual. SH010B1-E 1. CRANKCASE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
The positive crankcase ventilation system is employed to prevent air pollution caused byblow-by gases being emitted from the crank-case by introducing fresh air to the crankcase through the air cleaner where this mixes withblow-by gases and then passes through thePCV valve into the intake manifold from whereit subsequently enters the combustion cham-ber and is burned.
SH010D1-E 3. EXHAUST EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM The exhaust emission control system is a highlyeffective system which controls exhaust emis-sion whilst maintaining good vehicle perfor-mance.
SH010C1-E
2. EVAPORATIVE EMISSION
CONTROL SYSTEM
The Evaporative Emission Control System is designed to prevent fuel vapours from escap-ing into the atmosphere through the fuel tankventilation system.Whilst the engine is not running, fuel vapoursgenerated inside the fuel tank are absorbedand stored in a charcoal canister. When theengine is started, the vapours stored in thecanister are drawn into the induction systemthrough the purge control solenoid valve andare subsequently burned.The purge control solenoid valve is controlledby the ECU; when the engine coolant tempera-ture is low or the engine is idling, the purgecontrol valve is closed and fuel vapours remainstored in the canister. Under normal runningconditions when the engine is warm, the valveopens and the vapours are drawn into the inlettract and subsequently burned in the combus-tion chamber. SH020A1-E
Catalytic Convertor Operation Precautions; For a petrol engine Hyundai Matrix models are fitted with catalytic convertors which require special operatingconsiderations. The catalytic convertor servesto oxidize certain noxious elements of theexhaust gases leaving the engine to reduce thelevel of pollutants emitted from the vehicle and,provided that care is exercised to prevent dam-age, the catalyst will operate efficiently for thelife of the vehicle.

HFC2045 HFC2101
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. The engine cool- ant is under pressure and coulderupt and cause severe burns. Wait until the engine is cool before re- moving the radiator cap. The needle on the engine coolant tem-perature gauge should stay in themiddle between "H" and "C". If it moves across the dial to "H" (Hot), pull over and stop as soon as possible and turnoff the engine. Then open the hood and after the engine has cooled, check the coolant level and the water pumpdrive belt. If you suspect cooling sys- tem trouble, have your cooling system checked by a Hyundai dealer as soonas possible.

18SMOOTH CORNERINGWINTER DRIVING
C160A01A-AAT The more severe weather conditions of winter result in greater wear and other problems. To minimize the prob- lems of winter driving, you should fol-low these suggestions:
C150A01A-AAT Avoid braking or gear changing in cor- ners, especially when roads are wet. Ideally, corners should always be taken under gentle acceleration. If you followthese suggestions, tire wear will be held to a minimum. should be noted that installing tire chains on the tire will provide a greaterdriving force, but will not prevent side skids. NOTE: Tire chains are not legal in all prov- inces. Check province laws before fitting tire chains.
C160B01A-GAT Snowy or Icy Conditions To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may be necessary to use snow tires or to install tire chains on your tires. Ifsnow tires are needed, it is necessary to select tires equivalent in size and type to the original equipment tires.Failure to do so may adversely affect the safety and handling of your car. Speeding, rapid acceleration, suddenbrake applications, and sharp turns are potentially very hazardous prac- tices. During deceleration, use enginebraking to the fullest extent. Sudden brake applications on snowy or icy roads may cause skids to occur. Youneed to keep sufficient distance be- tween the vehicle in front and your vehicle. Also, apply the brake gently. It C160C01A-AAT Use High Quality Ethylene Glycol Coolant Your Hyundai is delivered with high quality ethylene glycol coolant in thecooling system. It is the only type of coolant that should be used because it helps prevent corrosion in the coolingsystem, lubricates the water pump and prevents freezing. Be sure to replace or replenish your coolant in accor-dance with the maintenance schedule in Section 5. Before winter, have your coolant tested to assure that its freez-ing point is sufficient for the tempera- tures anticipated during the winter.
