EMISSION CONTROL
SYSTEMS
H010B01A-AAT1. Crankcase Emission Control Sys-
temThe positive crankcase ventilation system
is employed to prevent air pollution caused
by blow-by gases being emitted from the
crankcase. This system supplies fresh fil-
tered 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 into the induc-
tion system.
CanisterFuel vapors generated inside the fuel tank
are absorbed and stored in the onboard
canister. When the engine is running, the
fuel vapors absorbed in the canister are
drawn into the surge tank through the
purge control solenoid valve.Purge Control Solenoid Valve (PCSV)The purge control solenoid valve is con-
trolled by the Engine Control Module
(ECM); when the engine coolant tempera-
ture is low during idling, the PCSV closes
so that evaporated fuel is not taken into the
engine. After the engine warms-up during
ordinary driving, the PCSV opens to intro-
duce evaporated fuel to the engine.H010D01A-AAT3. Exhaust Emission Control
SystemThe Exhaust Emission Control System is a
highly effective system which controls ex-
haust emissions while maintaining good
vehicle performance.
H010A01NF-AATYour Hyundai is equipped with an emis-
sion control system to meet all emission
regulations.
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 assure the proper function of the
emission control systems, it is recom-
mended that you have your car inspected
and maintained by an authorized Hyundai
dealer in accordance with the maintenance
schedule in this manual.
Caution for the Inspection and Mainte-
nance Test (With Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) system)
o To prevent the vehicle from misfiring
during dynamometer testing, turn the
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) sys-
tem off by pressing the ESC switch.
o After dynamometer testing is com-
pleted, turn the ESC system back on
by pressing the ESC switch again.
H010C01S-AAT2. Evaporative Emission Control (In-
cluding ORVR: Onboard Refuel-
ing Vapor Recovery) SystemThe Evaporative Emission Control Sys-
tem is designed to prevent fuel vapors from
escaping into the atmosphere.
(The ORVR system is designed to allow
the vapors from the fuel tank to be loaded
into a canister while refueling at the gas
station, preventing the escape of fuel va-
pors into the atmosphere.)

CATALYTIC CONVERTERH020A03A-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:Catalytic Converter
WARNING:
o Use unleaded fuel only.
o Maintain the engine in good operating
condition. Extremely high catalytic
converter temperatures can result
from improper operation of the elec-
trical, ignition or multiport electronic
fuel injection.
o If your engine stalls, pings, knocks, or
is hard to start, have your Hyundai
dealer inspect and repair the problem
as soon as possible.
o Avoid driving with a very low fuel level.
Running out of gasoline may cause
the engine to misfire and result in
damage to the catalytic converter.
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.
H020A01TG
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 park, idle or drive your vehicle
over any combustible material such
as grass, paper, leaves or rags. These
materials might contact the hot cata-
lytic converter and a fire might result.

!
CAUTION:
Always observe the following:
o Check pressures when the tires
are cold. (After the vehicle has
been parked for at least three hours
or hasn't been driven more than 1
mile (1.6 km) since starting up.)
o Check the pressure of your spare
tire each time you check the pres-
sure of other tires.
o Worn, old tires can cause acci-
dents. If your tread is badly worn,
or if your tires have been dam-
aged, replace them.
!
WARNING:
Overinflation or underinflation can
reduce the tire life, adversely affect
vehicle handling, and lead to sud-
den tire failure. This could rusult in
loss of vehicle control and potential
injury.
!
o Worn tires can cause accidents.
Replace tires that are worn, show
uneven wear, or are damaged. See
page 8-12.
o Remember to check the pressure
of your spare tire. Hyundai recom-
mends that you check the spare
every time you check the pressure
of the other tires on your vehicle.WARNING:
NOTE:
o Underinflation also results in ex-
cessive wear, poor handling and
reduced fuel economy. Wheel de-
formation also is possible. Keep
your tire pressures at the proper
levels. If a tire frequently needs
refilling, have it checked by your
Hyundai Dealer.
o Overinflation produces a harsh
ride, excessive wear at the center
of the tire tread, and a greater
possibility of damage from road
hazards.
I035A01JM-AATCHECKING TIRE INFLATION PRES-
SURE
Check your tires once a month or more.
Also, check the tire pressure of the
spare tire.
How to Check
Use a good quality gauge to check tire
pressure. You cannot tell if your tires
are properly inflated simply by looking
at them. Radial tires may look properly
inflated even when they're underinflated.
Check the tire's inflation pressure when
the tires are cold. - "Cold" means your
vehicle has been sitting for at least
three hours or driven no more than 1
mile (1.6 km).
