CATALYTIC CONVERTER
; For a diesel engine
o  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 cor-
rected.
o  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.
All  Hyundai  vehicles   are  equipped
with oxidation type catalytic converter
to reduce  the carbon  monoxide, hy-
drocarbons and particulate contained
in the  exhaust gas.
o  Avoid idling the engine  for periods
longer than  10 minutes.

About the Catalytic Converter
o  Your Hyundai should not be  either
pushed or  pulled to  get it  started.
This can  cause  the catalytic  con-
verter 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 con-
tact with the catalytic converter and
could cause  a fire.
o  Do  not   touch  the  catalytic   con-
verter or  any other part  of the ex-
haust  system while  the  engine is
running as it  is very hot and could
result in  burns.
o  Remember    that   your   Hyundai
dealer is your best source of assis-
tance.
Exhaust  gases passing  through  the
catalytic converter cause it to operate
at  very high  temperatures. As  a  re-
sult, 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:
Catalytic  Converter
HTB178
The catalytic  converter is part  of the
exhaust emission  control system. Its
purpose is  to remove certain  engine
emission products  from the  engine's
exhaust.  It  looks   something  like  a
muffler and is located underneath the
car in  the exhaust system.
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.
