CATALYTIC CONVERTER
!
!
H020A01A-AATAll Hyundai vehicles are equipped with a
monolith type three-way catalytic con-
verter to reduce the carbon monoxide,
hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides con-
tained in the exhaust gas. Exhaust gases
passing through the catalytic converter
cause it to operate at a very high tem-
perature. 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:WARNING:
o Do not touch the catalytic converter
or any other part of the exhaust sys-
tem while 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
combustible material such as grass,
paper, leaves or rags. These materi-
als might contact the hot catalytic
converter and a fire might result.

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.
