o Do not touch the catalytic con-
verter or any other part of the
exhaust system while the cata-
lytic converter is hot. Shut off the
engine, wait for at least one hour
before touching the catalytic con-
verter or any other part of the
exhaust system.
o Remember that your Hyundai
dealer is your best source of as-
sistance.
o Do not stop your Hyundai over
any combustible material such
as grass, paper, leaves or rags.
These materials might contact
the hot catalytic converter and a
fire might result.
; For a Gasoline Engine
(If Installed)
!
WARNING:
o Use unleaded fuel only.
o Maintain the engine in good op-
condition. Extremely
erating
high catalytic converter tempera-
tures can result from improper
operation of the electrical, igni-
tion 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 gaso-
line may cause the engine to
misfire and result in damage to
the catalytic converter.
o Avoid idling the engine for peri-
ods 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 cre-
ate a fire hazard.

OGK076501
Hyundai vehicle is equipped with a
monolith type three-way catalytic con-
verter to reduce the carbon monoxide,

gases passing through the catalytic
converter may cause it to operate at a
very high temperature. The introduc-
tion of large amounts of unburned gaso-
line into the exhaust may cause the
catalytic converter to overheat and
create a fire hazard. This risk may be
reduced by observing the following:
