; 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.
Hyundai vehicle is equipped with oxi-
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.
