7-2EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
WARNING:
o Use unleaded fuel only.
o Maintain the engine in good operating condition. Extremely high catalytic con-verter temperatures can result from im- proper operation of the electrical, igni- tion or multiport electronic fuel injection.
o If your engine stalls, pings, knocks, or is hard to start, have your Hyundai dealerinspect and repair the problem as soon as possible.
o Avoid driving with a very low fuel level. Running out of gasoline may cause theengine to misfire and result in damage to the catalytic converter.
o Avoid idling the engine for periods long- er than 10 minutes.
o The vehicle should not be pushed or pulled to get started. This may cause the catalytic converter to overheat and cre- ate a fire hazard.
o Do not touch the catalytic converter or any other part of the exhaust systemwhile the catalytic converter is hot. Shut off the engine, wait for at least one hour before touching the catalytic converter or any other part of the exhaust system.
o Remember that your Hyundai dealer is your best source of assistance.
o Do not stop your Hyundai over any com- bustible material such as grass, paper,leaves or rags. These materials might contact the hot catalytic converter and a fire might result. H020C01HP-GAT EGR SYSTEM ; For a Diesel Engine (If installed) This system helps control oxides of nitrogen by recirculating a part of the exhaust gas into the engine, there by reducing cylinder combustion temperature.This system can be reduced Nox of Emission used by EGR.
H020D01S-GAT CATALYTIC CONVERTER ; For a Diesel Engine (If installed) All Hyundai vehicles are equipped with oxida- tion type catalytic converter to reduce the car- bon monoxide, hydrocarbons and particulate contained in the exhaust gas.

1. CONTROLS AND
EQUIPMENT neck. However, care must be exercised when refuelling the vehicle tank from jerry cans or bymeans of a funnel that the fuel being used isunleaded.
The use of leaded fuel in this vehicle will result
in irreversible pollution of the catalyst element.Such pollution will prevent correct operation ofthe catalyst and give rise to increased operat-ing temperatures leading to the catalyst ele-ment melting and restricting the exhaust flowalong with an increase in exhaust emissionlevels.
CAUTION: The vehicle warranty will not extend to dam-
age arising from the use of incorrect fuels.
Unleaded fuel with a Research Octane Number
(RON) of 91 or higher must be used in this vehicle. To prevent accidental filling of the fuel tank with
leaded fuel, a small diameter filler neck alongwith a restrictor flap are fitted to ensure that onlyunleaded fuel pump nozzles may enter the filler

UNLEADED FUEL ONLY
B010A01HP-EAT FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS PETROL ENGINES THIS VEHICLE MUST ONLY BE OPERATED
WITH UNLEADED FUEL.
SERIOUS DAMAGE WILL RESULT FROM
THE USE OF LEADED FUEL.
DIESEL ENGINESDiesel fuel of 52 to 54 cetane is the correct
rating to use in your Hyundai Terracan. If two types of diesel fuel are available, use summeror winter fuel properly according to the followingtemperature conditions.
o Above 23°F (-5°C) ... Summer type diesel fuel.
o Below 23°F (-5°C) ... Winter type diesel fuel.
Watch the fuel level in the tank very carefully :
If the engine stops due to fuel failure, the circuits must be completely purged to permitrestarting. CAUTION: Do not let any petrol or water enter the tank.
If this happens, the tank should be com- pletely drained and the fuel lines should allbe cleaned out. This will stop the fuel pumpfrom becoming contaminated.
ZB010D1-E Operation in Foreign CountriesDrivers of vehicles which are to be operated in
foreign countries must satisfy themselves that:
o The vehicle meets all local regulations with respect to insurance, specifications etc..
o The correct types and grades of fuel are available for satisfactory operation of the ve- hicle.
ZB010C1-E "Alternative fuels"Fuels which contain methanol or ethanol must
not be used.
ZB010F2-AFUELS FOR CLEANER AIRTo help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai rec-
ommends that you use fuels treated with deter- gent additives, which help to prevent depositformation in the engine. These fuels will helpthe engines run cleaner and the Emission Con-trol System performance.
