B880B03A-GAT Keys All of the locks fitted to the vehicle are oper- ated by the same key. However, since it ispossible to lock the doors without the use ofthe key, care should be exercised to ensurethat the key does not become locked insidethe vehicle by mistake. NOTE: If you make your own duplicate key, you will not be able to cancel the system orstart the engine.
B020A02FC-EAT RUNNING IN (Petrol Engine) The longevity and performance of the vehicle are greatly affected by the care exercisedduring the first 1,000 miles of motoring. Be-cause of modern manufacturing techniques,rigid guidelines regarding maximum roadspeeds have become unnecessary. However,certain precautions should be observed inorder to obtain the best possible performanceand useful life from the vehicle.
1) Do not race the engine without a load
(i.e revving the engine in neutral).
2) During the first 500 miles the maximum engine speed should be restricted to 3,000 rpm and gradually increased thereafter.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed operation. The internal components will become run in
more quickly if the operation speed is varied
during the running-in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use the gearbox freely and avoid large throttle open-ings when the engine speed is below 1,500rpm.
5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maximum throttle openings.
6) Avoid harsh braking during the first 100 miles of urban motoring or 1,000 miles ofmotorway driving to allow the friction fac-ings of the brake pads and shoes to bedagainst the discs and drums properly.
7) No trailer towing should be undertaken during the running in period.

RUNNING IN (Diesel Engine)
The longevity and performance of the vehicle
are greatly affected by the care exercised during the first 1,000 miles of motoring. Be-cause of modern manufacturing techniques,rigid guidelines regarding maximum roadspeeds have become unnecessary. However,certain precautions should be observed inorder to obtain the best possible performanceand useful life from the vehicle.
1) Do not race the engine without a load
(i.e revving the engine in neutral).
2) During the first 600 miles the maximum engine speed should be restricted to 3,000 rpm and gradually increased thereafter.And whilst driving, keep under three quar-ters of maximum vehicle speed.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed operation. The internal components of the engine willbecome run in more quickly if the operationspeed is varied during the running in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use the gearbox freely and avoid large throttle open-ings when the engine speed is below 1,500rpm.

OVERDRIVE OFF INDICATOR LIGHT (Not all models)
When the overdrive (4th gear) switch is turned
off and the operation of overdrive (4th gear) is cancelled, the overdrive warning light (O/DOFF) will be illuminated. When the switch is atthe on position, the gearbox will operate in thenormal fully automatic mode and the warninglight will be extinguished.
B260P02Y-EAT
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.

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 onwhilst driving, have the SRS inspected by anHyundai authorised repairer.

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
CAUTION: If the drive belt (generator belt) is loose, broken, or missing whilst the vehicle isdriving, there may be a serious malfunc-tion, engine could overheat because thisbelt also drives the water pump.
