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 ABSSRI remains on, comes on whilst 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 authorised repairer as soon aspossible. The normal braking system will stillbe operational, but without the assistance ofthe anti-lock brake system.
CAUTION: If the both ABS SRI and Parking Brake/
Brake fluid level warning lights remain "ON" or come on whilst driving, there may be aproblem with E.B.D. (Electronic Brake
Force Distribution).
If this occurs, avoid sudden stops and
have your vehicle checked by your Hyundaiauthorised repairer 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 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 authorised repairer beforefurther operating the vehicle.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENTcircuits 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 authorised repairer mustbe sought before the vehicle is driven.Driving the vehicle with either an electri-cal or hydraulic braking system defectmay be dangerous, resulting in accidentor personal injury. 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 authorised re-pairer must be sought before the vehicle isdriven again.The Hyundai Matrix is equipped with a diag-onally split dual braking system which willensure that in the event of one of the brake

SB210M1-E CHARGING SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT
The charging system warning light should illuminate when the ignition switch is turned tothe "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 authorised repairer shouldbe contacted. If the light illuminates whilst thevehicle is being driven, stop the vehicle assoon as it is safe to do so and check thecondition of the generator drive belt.

BRAKE PAD WEAR INDICATOR
The front brake disc pads are fitted with an
audible wear indicator which will cause a high pitched 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.

To signal anintention to turn left, the switch lever should bepushed upwards. In both instances, the turnsignal lights on one side of the car will flash andthe warning light located in the instrumentcluster will flash in sympathy. Upon completionof the manoeuvre, the lever will, under normal
circumstances, return to the "OFF" position.However, if the manoeuvre involved only asmall movement of the steering wheel, thesignal may need to be cancelled manually. Ifeither turn signal indicator flashes more rapidlythan normal or refuses to flash at all, a malfunc-tion of the turn signal system may exist.
