(If Installed)
If the  malfunction indicator light con-
tinues  to  be blinked  in  spite  of  the
procedure, please visit an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and then check the
DPF system.
If you continue  to drive with the mal-
function indicator  light  blinking  for a
long  time,  the DPF  system  can  be
damaged and fuel consumption can be
worsen.
H020C01S-GAT
EGR SYSTEM
;
For a diesel engine
The  Diesel  Particulate  Filter  (DPF)
system removes the soot emitted from
the vehicle.
This  system helps  control oxides  of
nitrogen by recirculating a part of  the
exhaust gas  into the engine.
Unlike a disposable air filter, the DPF
system automatically burns (oxidizes)
and  removes the  accumulated  soot
according to  the driving condition. In
other  words,  the  active  burning  by
engine  control system  and  high ex-
haust gas temperature caused by nor-
mal/high driving  condition burns and
removes the accumulated soot.
However, if the vehicle continues to be
driven at low speed for long time, the
accumulated soot  may  not be  auto-
matically  removed  because   of  low
exhaust gas temperature. In this par-
ticular case, the amount of soot is out
of detection  limit,  the soot  oxidation
process by engine control system may
not happen and the malfunction indica-
tor light may  blink.
When the  malfunction indicator  light
blinks, it may stop  blinking by driving
the vehicle at  more than 60km/h  (37
mph) or at more than second gear with
1500 ~ 2000 engine rpm for a certain
time (for about 25 minutes).
