circuits   becoming  defective,   approximately
fifty  per  cent  of  the  normal  braking  perfor-
mance will  be available.
CAUTION:
PARKING  BRAKE/BRAKE
FLUID LEVEL WARNING
LIGHT
If the  drive belt (generator  belt) is loosen,
broken,  or  missing   while  the  vehicle  is
driving,  there may  be  a serious  malfunc-
tion,  engine could  overheat  because this
belt also  drives the  water pump.
If  failure  of  one  of  the  circuits  occurs,  the
required 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.
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.

TAIL GATE OPEN WARNING
LIGHT
The tail gate warning  light indicates when the
tail gate is  open or is not fully  closed. Ensure
that the light  has extinguished prior to  driving
the vehicle.
Warninglightoperation
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
SB2100I-E
DOOR AJAR WARNING
LIGHT
SB210M1-E
The  door  ajar  warning  light indicates  that  a
door  is not  correctly  closed. Ensure  that  the
light is extinguished prior to driving the vehicle.
CHARGING SYSTEM
WARNING LIGHT
The  charging   system  warning  light   should
illuminate when the ignition switch is turned to
the "ON" position and  should be extinguished
when the engine  is started. If the  light fails to
illuminate when the  ignition is turned  "ON" or
fails to extinguish after starting the engine, the
nearest Hyundai  dealer should be  contacted.
If  the  light  illuminates  whilst  the  vehicle   is
being driven, stop the  vehicle as soon as it  is
safe to  do so  and check the  condition of  the
generator drive belt. If the  belt is in place and
the  tension  is  satisfactory,  the  advice  of  a
Hyundai dealer  should be  sought.

LOW FUEL LEVEL WARNING
LIGHT
The low fuel  warning light serves to  warn the
driver that  the  remaining fuel  quantity is  ap-
proximately 9 litres and that the vehicle should
be  refuelled.  If  the  vehicle  is  driven for  an
extended period with the low fuel warning light
illuminated there  exists a possibility  that mis-
firing  due  to  fuel shortage  may  occur.  This
situation must be  avoided to prevent damage
to the  catalyst occurring.
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-
