your Hyundai dealer as soon as
possible and have the difficulty cor-
rected.

level. If your run out of gasoline, it
could cause the engine to misfire
and result in excessive loading of
the catalytic converter.

dation type catalytic converter to re-
duce the carbon monoxide, hydrocar-
bons 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.
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
HTB5017
o Do not park, idle, or drive your
vehicle over any combustible mate-
rial such as grass, paper, leaves or
rags. As these materials could come
in contact with the catalytic con-
verter and could cause a fire.
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.
Hyundai vehicle is equipped with a
monolith type three-way catalytic con-
verter to reduce the carbon monoxide,
hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides con-
tained in the exhaust gas. Exhaust
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:
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 Remember that your Hyundai dealer
is your best source of assistance.
