or   near  flammable   objects,
such   as   dry   grass,   paper,
leaves, etc.
Do  not operate  the  vehicle  when
there are signs  of engine malfunc-
tion, such as misfire or a noticeable
loss of performance.
•  Do   not   misuse    or   abuse   the
engine.  Examples  of  misuse  are
coasting  with  the ignition  off  and
descending  steep  grades in  gear
with the ignition off.
•  Do not operate  the engine at  high
idle speed for  extended periods (5
minutes or more).
The exhaust  system  and cat-
alytic   system   are  very   hot

immediately  after  the  engine
is turned off.  Keep away from

Do not  modify or  tamper with  any
part of the engine or emission con-
trol  system.   All  inspections   and

authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Also, do  not remove  the heat
sink around  the exhaust  sys-
tem, do not seal the bottom of
the vehicle or  do not coat the
vehicle  for corrosion  control.
It may present a fire risk under
certain conditions.
Avoid  driving with  a very  low  fuel
level. If  you run  out of  gasoline, it
could cause  the  engine to  misfire
and result  in excessive  loading  of
the catalytic converter.
