3. Exhaust Emission
Control System
The Exhaust Emission Control System is
a highly effective system which controls
exhaust emissions while maintaining
good vehicle performace.
H020A03A-AAT
(If Installed)
Hyundai vehicle is equipped with a mono-
lith type three-way catalytic converter to
reduce the carbon monoxide, hydrocar-
bons and nitrogen oxides contained in
the exhaust gas. Exhaust gases passing
through the catalytic converter cause it to
operate at a very high temperature. The
introduction of large amounts of unburned
gasoline into the exhaust may cause the
catalytic converter to overheat and create
a fire hazard. This risk may be reduced by
observing the following:
H020A01MC
Catalytic Converter
WARNING:
o Use unleaded fuel only.
o Maintain the engine in good operat-
ing condition. Extremely high cata-
lytic converter temperatures can re-
sult from improper operation of the
electrical, ignition or multiport elec-
tronic fuel injection.
o If your engine stalls, pings, knocks,
or is hard to start, have your Hyundai
dealer inspect and repair the prob-
lem as soon as possible.
o Avoid driving with a very low fuel
level. Running out of gasoline may
cause the engine to misfire and re-
sult in damage to the catalytic con-
verter.
o Avoid idling the engine for periods
longer than 10 minutes.
o The vehicle should not be pushed or
pulled to get started. This may cause
the catalytic converter to overheat
and create a fire hazard.
