2FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS
B010F01A-AAT Operation in Foreign Countries If you are going to drive your Hyundai in another country, be sure to:
o Observe all regulations regardingregistration and insurance.
o Determine that acceptable fuel is available.
Unleaded petrol with a Pump Octane Rating of 87 (Research Octane Num- ber 91) or higher must be used inyour Hyundai. If leaded petrol is used, it will cause the catalytic converter to become ineffec- tive and the emission control system to malfunction. This can also result inincreased maintenance expense. To avoid accidental use of leaded fuel, the larger nozzle used with leaded petrolat service stations cannot be inserted into the fuel tank opening of your Hyundai.
B010A01A-DAT Use Unleaded Petrol
B010E01A-DATPetrol for Cleaner Air To help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai recommends that you usepetrol treated with detergent additives, which help prevent deposit formation in the engine. This petrol will help theengine run cleaner and enhance per- formance of the Emission Control Sys- tem.
B010D01A-DAT Do not Use Methanol Fuels containing methanol (wood al- cohol) should not be used in your Hyundai. This type of fuel can reducevehicle performance and damage com- ponents of the fuel system.
! CAUTION:
Hyundai Warranty Policy will not cover the damage of the fuel sys- tem and performance problems that are caused by the use of methanolor fuels containing methanol.
B010B01A-AAT What About Gasohol [E-10]? Gasohol (a mixture of 90% unleaded gasoline and 10% ethanol or grainalcohol) may be used in your Hyundai. However, if your engine develops drive ability problems, the use of 100% un-leaded gasoline is recommended. Fu- els with unspecified quantities of alco- hol, or alcohols other than ethanol,should not be used.

7EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
2EMISSION CONTROL SYS- TEM
H010A01A-DAT Your Hyundai is equipped with an
emission control system to meet all Australian Design Rules(ADR) require- ments.
There are three emission control sys-
tems which are as follows.
1. Crankcase emission control sys-
tem
2. Evaporative emission control sys-
tem
3. Exhaust emission control system
In order to assure the proper function
of the emission control systems, it is recommended that you have your carinspected and maintained by an authorised Hyundai dealer in accor- dance with the maintenance schedulein this manual. H010B01A-AAT
1. Crankcase Emission Control
System
The positive crankcase ventilation
(PCV) system is employed to prevent air pollution caused by blow-by gases being emitted from the crankcase.This system supplies fresh air to the crankcase through the air intake hose. Inside the crankcase, the fresh airmixes with blow-by gases, which then pass through the PCV valve and into the induction system.
H010C03Y-DAT
2. Evaporative Emission Control
System
The Evaporative Emission Control
System is designed to prevent fuelvapours from escaping into the atmo- sphere. H010D01A-AAT
3. Exhaust Emission Control
System
The exhaust emission control system
is a highly effective system whichcontrols exhaust emission while main- taining good vehicle performance.
Canister
Fuel vapors generated inside the fuel
tank are absorbed and stored in theonboard canister. When the engine isrunning, the fuel vapors absorbed in the canister are drawn into the surge tank system through the purge controlsolenoid valve. Purge Control Solenoid Valve
The purge control solenoid valve is
controlled by the ECM (Engine Control Module); when the engine coolant tem- perature is low, and during idling, it closes, so that evaporated fuel is not taken into the engine. After engine warm-up, during ordinary driving, itopens so as to introduce evaporated fuel to the engine.
