o
Do not touch the catalytic converter or any
other part of the exhaust system while the
engine is running as it is very hot and could
result in burns.
Remember that your Hyundai dealer is your
best source of assistance.
About the Catalytic Converter
Exhaust gases passing through the catalytic
converter cause it to operate at very high tem-
peratures. As a result, the introduction of large
amounts of unburned gasoline may cause it to
overheat and create a fire hazard. This can be
avoided by observing the following:
o
o
o
Use unleaded fuel only.
Maintain your engine in good condition. Ex-
tremely high converter temperatures can
result from improper operation of the electri-
cal, ignition or fuel injection systems.
If your engine stalls, pings, knocks, or is
hard to start, take your car to your Hyundai
dealer as soon as possible and have the
difficulty corrected.
Avoid driving with a very low fuel level. If
your run out of gasoline, it could cause the
engine to misfire and result in excessive
loading of the catalytic converter.
o
o
o
o
Avoid idling the engine for periods longer
than 10 minutes.
Your Hyundai should not be either pushed
or pulled to get it started. This can cause the
catalytic 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 could
come in contact with the catalytic converter
and could cause a fire.
