The Positive Crankcase Ventilation System is
employed to prevent air pollution caused by
blow-by gases being emitted from the crank-
case. This system supplies fresh filtered air to
the crankcase through the air intake hose.
Inside the crankcase, the fresh air mixes with
blow-by gases, which then pass through the
PCV valve and into the induction system.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMEMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMYour Hyundai is equipped with an emission
control system to meet all requirements of the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or Cali-
fornia Air Resources Board.
There are three emission control systems which
are as follows.
1) Crankcase Emission Control System
2) Evaporative Emission Control System
3) Exhaust Emission Control System
In order to ensure the proper function of the
emission control systems, it is recommended
that you have your car inspected and main-

All Hyundai vehicles are equipped with one or
two monolith type three-way catalytic convert-
ers to reduce the carbon monoxide, hydrocar-
bons and nitrogen oxides contained in the ex-
haust 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:

SNOW TIRES SNOW TIRESSNOW TIRES SNOW TIRES
SNOW TIRESIf you equip your car with snow tires, they
should be the same size and have the same
load capacity as the original tires. Snow tires
should be installed on all four wheels; other-
wise, poor handling may result.
Snow tires should carry 4 psi (28 kPa) more air
pressure than the pressure recommended for
the standard tires on the tire label on the driver
side center pillar outer panel, or up to the
maximum pressure shown on the tire sidewall
whichever is less.
