exhaust emission control system. Its purpose is to remove certain engineemission products from the engine's exhaust. It looks something like a muffler and is located underneath thecar in the exhaust system. H020B02A-DAT
About the Catalytic Converter
Exhaust gases passing through the
catalytic converter cause it to operate at very high temperatures. As a re- sult, the introduction of large amountsof unburned petrol may cause it to overheat and create a fire hazard. This can be avoided by observing the fol-lowing:
H020A01MCCatalytic Converter!WARNING:
o Use unleaded fuel only.
o Maintain your engine in good con- dition. Extremely high converter temperatures can result from im-proper operation of the electrical, ignition or fuel injection systems.
o If your engine stalls, pings, knocks, or is hard to start, takeyour car to your Hyundai dealer as soon as possible and have thedifficulty corrected.
o Avoid driving with a very low fuel
level. If you run out of petrol, it could cause the engine to misfire and result in excessive loading ofthe catalytic converter. o Avoid idling the engine for peri-
ods longer than 10 minutes.
o Your Hyundai should not be ei- ther pushed or pulled to get itstarted. This can cause the cata-lytic converter to overload.
o Take care not to stop your Hyundai over any combustible material such as grass, paper, leaves or rags. As these materials couldcome in contact with the catalytic converter and could cause a fire.
o Do not touch the catalytic con- verter or any other part of the exhaust system while the engineis running as it is very hot and could result in burns.
o Remember that your Hyundai dealer is your best source of as-sistance.
o Do not park, idle or drive your vehicle over any combustible ma- terial such as grass, paper, leavesor rags. These materials might contact the hot catalytic converter and a fire might result.
