EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS 7- 3
WARNING:
o Use unleaded fuel only.
o Maintain the engine in good operating condition. Extremelyhigh catalytic converter tempera- tures can result from improper operation of the electrical, igni-tion or multiport electronic fuel injection.
o If your engine stalls, pings, knocks, or is hard to start, haveyour Hyundai dealer inspect and repair the problem as soon as possible.
o Avoid driving with a very low fuel level. Running out of gaso-line may cause the engine to misfire and result in damage tothe catalytic converter.
o Avoid idling the engine for peri- ods longer than 10 minutes.
o The vehicle should not be pushed or pulled to get started.This may cause the catalytic con- verter to overheat and create a fire hazard.
H020A01A-AAT
CATALYTIC CONVERTER
HXGS509
All Hyundai vehicles are equippedwith a monolith type three-way cata-lytic converter to reduce the carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitro- gen oxides contained in the exhaustgas. Exhaust gases passing through the catalytic converter may 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 tooverheat and create a fire hazard. This risk may be reduced by observ- ing the following:
Catalytic Converter o Do not touch the catalytic con-
verter or any other part of the exhaust system while the cata-lytic converter is hot. Shut off the engine, wait for at least one hour before touching the cata-lytic 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 combustible material suchas grass, paper, leaves or rags.These materials might contact the hot catalytic converter and a fire might result.

CONSUMER INFORMATION 8- 3
CAUTION:
Always observe the following:
o Check pressures when the tires are cold. That is, after the car has been parked for at least threehours and hasn't been driven more than 1.6 km or one mile since starting up.
o Check the pressure of your spare tire each time you check thepressure of other tires.
o Never overload your car. Be es- pecially careful about overload-ing if you equip your car with a luggage rack or car top carrier. I040A01S-GAT SNOW TIRES If 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 beinstalled on all four wheels; other- wise, poor handling may result. Snow tires should carry 28 kPa (4 psi) more air pressure than the pres- sure recommended for the standard tires on the tire label on the driver'sdoor edge, or up to the maximum pressure shown on the tire sidewall whichever is less.Do not drive faster than 120 km/h (75mph) when your car is equipped withsnow tires.

These pressures were chosen to pro-
vide the most satisfactory combina-tion of ride comfort, tire wear and stability under normal conditions. Tire pressures should be checked at least monthly. Proper tire inflation pressures should be maintained for these reasons:
o Lower-than-recommended tire pressures cause uneven tread wear and poor handling.
o Higher-than-recommended tire pressures increase the chance ofdamage from impacts and causeuneven tread wear.
