To check the steering wheel free-play, stop the car with the wheels pointed straight ahead and gently move the steering wheel back and forth. Use very light finger pressure and be sensitive to changes in resistance that mark the limits of the free-play. If the free-play is greater than specified, have it inspected by your Hyundai dealer and adjusted or repaired if necessary.

G160A01HR With the engine off, press down on the brake pedal several times to reduce the vacuum in the brake booster. Then, using your hand, press down slowly on the brake pedal until you feel a change in resistance. This is the brake pedal free-play. The free-play should be within the limits speci- fied in the illustration above. If it is not, have it inspected by your Hyundai dealer and adjusted or repaired if necessary.


G180A01L You need a helper to check the brake pedal clearance. With the engine running, have your helper press down on the brake pedal several times and then hold it down with a force of about 110 lbs (50 kg, 490 N). The brake pedal clear- ance is the distance from the top surface of the brake pedal to the asphalt sheeting under the floor mat. If the brake pedal clearance is not within the limits specified in the illustration, have it in- spected by your Hyundai dealer and adjusted or repaired if necessary.

Drive belts should be checked periodically for proper tension and adjusted if necessary. At the same time, belts should be examined for cracks, wear, fraying or other evidence of deterioration and replaced if necessary. Belt routing should also be checked to be sure there is no interference between the belts and other parts of the engine. After a belt is replaced, the new belt should be adjusted again after two or three weeks to eliminate slack resulting from initial stretching after use.


CAUTION:


When replacing a fusible link, never use anything but a new fusible link with the same or lower amperage rating. Never use a piece of wire or a higher-rated fusible link. This could result in serious damage and create a fire hazard.


CHECKING AND REPLACING FUSES G200A03A-AAT Replacing a Fusible Link


Open- Replace

G200A01O A fusible link will melt if the electrical circuits from the battery are ever overloaded, thus prevent- ing damage to the entire wiring harness. (This could be caused by a short in the system drawing too much current.) If this ever happens, have a Hyundai dealer determine the cause, repair the system and replace the fusible link. The fusible links are located in a relay box in the engine compartment for easy inspection.


1. Turn off the ignition and all other switches. 2. Open the fuse box and examine each fuse. Remove each fuse by pulling it toward you (a small "fuse puller" tool is contained in the relay and fuse box of the engine room to simplify this operation).


3. Be sure to check all other fuses even if you


find one that appears to have opened.

4. Replace the blown fuse by pressing a new fuse of the same rating into place. The fuse should be a snug fit. If it is not, have the fuse clip repaired or replaced by a Hyundai dealer. If you do not have a spare fuse, you may be able to borrow a fuse of the same or lower rating from an accessory you can tempo- rarily get along without (the radio or cigarette lighter, for example). Always remember to replace the borrowed fuse.

G210A01A-AAT


CAUTION:


An open fuse indicates that there is a prob- lem in the electrical circuit. If you replace a fuse and it blows as soon as the accessory is turned on, the problem is serious and should be referred to a Hyundai dealer for diagnosis and repair. Never replace a fuse with anything except a fuse with the same or a lower amperage rating. A higher capac- ity fuse could cause damage and create a fire hazard.


NOTE: See page 6-33 for the fuse panel descrip- tions.

7 EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS


EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM


H010A03O-AAT Your Hyundai is equipped with an emission control system to meet all requirements of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or Cali- fornia Air Resources Board. There are three emission control systems which are as follows.


o 3.5 V6 - To prevent the vehicle from misfiring during dynamometer testing, turn the Traction Control System (TCS) off by pressing the TCS switch. After dynamometer testing is completed, turn the TCS system back on by pressing the TCS switch again.


(1) Crankcase emission control system (2) Evaporative emission control system (3) Exhaust emission control system


In order to assure the proper function of the emission control systems, it is recommended that you have your car inspected and main- tained by an authorized Hyundai dealer in ac- cordance with the maintenance schedule in this manual.


Caution for the Inspection and Maintenance Test (V6 Vehicle with Traction Control Sys- tem)


o 2.7 V6 - To prevent the vehicle from misfiring during dynamometer testing, disconnect the ABS connector in the engine compartment. After dynamom- eter testing is completed, erase the ABS/ TCS DTC (Diagnotic Trouble Code) with a GST (Generic Scan Tool) or Hi-Scan Pro. For more information, see shop manual (Wheel Speed Sensor).


H010B01A-AAT 1. Crankcase Emission Control


System


The positive crankcase ventilation system is employed to prevent air pollution caused by blow-by gases being emitted from the crank- case. This system supplies filtered air to the crankcase through the air intake hose. Inside the crankcase, the fresh air mixes with blow-by gases, which then pass through the PCV valve and into the induction system.


H010C01S-AAT 2. Evaporative Emission Control (Includ- ing ORVR: Onboard Refueling Vapor Recovery) System


The Evaporative Emission Control System is designed to prevent fuel vapors from escaping into the atmosphere.


(The ORVR system is designed to allow the vapors from the fuel tank to be loaded into a canister while refueling at the gas station, pre- venting the escape of fuel vapors into the atmosphere.)


Canister


Fuel vapors generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the canister. When the engine is running, the fuel vapors absorbed in the canister are drawn into the induction system through the purge control solenoid valve.


Purge Control Solenoid Valve (PCSV)


The purge control solenoid valve is controlled by the Engine Control Module (ECM); when the engine coolant temperature is low during idling, the PCSV closes so that evaporated fuel is not taken into the engine. After the engine warms- up during ordinary driving, the PCSV opens to introduce evaporated fuel to the engine.


H010D01A-AAT 3. Exhaust Emission Control System


The Exhaust Emission Control System is a highly effective system which controls exhaust emissions while maintaining good vehicle performace.


EGR SYSTEM


CATALYTIC CONVERTER


H010E01Y-AAT (If installed)


H020A01A-AAT


This system helps reduce nitrogen oxides by recirculating a part of the exhaust gas into the engine, thereby reducing cylinder combustion temperature, which results in lower output of oxides of nitrogen.


Catalytic Converter


H020A01O All Hyundai vehicles are equipped with a mono- lith type three-way catalytic converter to re- duce the carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides contained in the exhaust gas. Exhaust gases passing through the catalytic converter cause it to operate at a very high temperature. The introduction of large amounts of unburned gasoline into the exhaust may cause the catalytic converter to overheat and create a fire hazard. This risk may be reduced by observing the following:


EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS


WARNING:


o Use unleaded fuel only. o Maintain the engine in good operating condition. Extremely high catalytic con- verter temperatures can result from im- proper operation of the electrical, igni- tion or multiport electronic fuel injec- tion.


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 gasoline may cause the engine to misfire and result in damage to the catalytic converter.


o Avoid idling the engine for periods


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.


o Do not touch the catalytic converter or any other part of the exhaust system while the catalytic converter is hot. Shut off the engine, wait for at least one hour before touching the catalytic converter or any other part of the exhaust system. o Remember that your Hyundai dealer is


your best source of assistance.


7 EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS


WARNING:


o Do not stop your Hyundai over any com- bustible material such as grass, paper, leaves or rags. These materials might contact the hot catalytic converter and a fire might result.

RECOMMENDED INFLATION PRES- SURES


I030A01O Tire label located on the driver's side of the center pillar outer panel gives the cold tire pressures recommended for your vehicle with the original tire size, the number of people that can be in your vehicle and vehicle capacity weight.


I030A02O These pressures were chosen to pro- vide the most satisfactory combination of ride comfort, tire wear and stability under normal conditions. Tire pressures should be checked at least monthly. Proper tire inflation pressures should be maintained for these reasons:


WARNING:


o Lower-than-recommended tire pressures cause uneven tread wear, poor handling, poor fuel economy or tire failure.


o Higher-than-recommended tire pressures can cause poor han- dling, uneven tread wear or tire failure.


CAUTION:


Always observe the following:


o Check pressures when the tires are cold. (After the vehicle has been parked for at least three hours or hasn't been driven more than 1
mile (1.6 km) since starting up.)


8 CONSUMER INFORMATION, REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS & BINDING ARBITRATION OF WARRANTY CLAIMS


o Check the pressure of your spare tire each time you check the pres- sure of other tires.


o Never overload your vehicle. Be especially careful about overload- ing if you equip your vehicle with a luggage rack.


o Worn, old tires can cause acci- dents. If your tread is badly worn, or if your tires have been dam- aged, replace them.


I035A01JM-AAT


CHECKING TIRE INFLATION PRES- SURE Check your tires once a month or more. Also, check the tire pressure of the spare tire.


How to Check Use a good quality gauge to check tire pressure. You cannot tell if your tires are properly inflated simply by looking


at them. Radial tires may look properly inflated even when they're underinflated. Check the tire's inflation pressure when the tires are cold. - "Cold" means your vehicle has been sitting for at least three hours or driven no more than 1
mile (1.6 km). Remove the valve cap from the tire valve stem. Press the tire gauge firmly onto the valve to get a pressure mea- surement. If the cold tire inflation pres- sure matches the recommended pres- sure on the tire and loading information label, no further adjustment is neces- sary. If the pressure is low, add air until you reach the recommended amount. If you overfill the tire, release air by pushing on the metal stem in the center of the tire valve. Recheck the tire pres- sure with the tire gauge. Be sure to put the valve caps back on the valve stems. They help prevent leaks by keeping out dirt and moisture.


I030B01O-AAT TIRE SIDEWALL LABELING


5, 6


I030B04JM


Federal law requires tire manufacturers to place standardized information on the sidewall of all tires. This information identifies and describes the fundamen- tal characteristics of the tire and also provides the tire identification number (TIN) for safety standard certification. The TIN can be used to identify the tire in case of a recall.

I040A01O-AAT


SNOW TIRES If you equip your car with snow tires, they should be the same size and have the same load capacity as the original tires. Snow tires should be installed on all four wheels; otherwise, poor han- dling may result. Snow tires should carry 4 psi (28 kPa) more air pressure than the pressure recommended for the standard tires on the tire label on the driver's side of the center pillar , or up to the maximum pressure shown on the tire sidewall, whichever is less. Do not drive faster than 75 mph (120
km/h) when your car is equipped with snow tires.


I040B01JM-AAT


ALL SEASON TIRES Hyundai specifies all season tires on some models to provide good perfor- mance for use all year round, including snowy and icy road conditions. All sea- son tires are identified by ALL SEASON and/or M+S (Mud and Snow) on the tire sidewall. Snow tires have better snow traction than all season tires an may be more appropriate in some areas.


I040C01JM-AAT


SUMMER TIRES Hyundai specifies summer tires on some models to provide superior performance on dry roads. Summer tire performance is substantially reduced in snow and ice. Summer tires do not have the tire traction rating M+S (Mud and Snow) on the tire side wall. If you plan to operate your vehicle in snowy or icy conditions, Hyundai recommends the use of snow tires or all season tires on all four wheels.

TIRE ROTATION


Spare tire


HA1409


Tires should be rotated every 7,500
miles (12,000 km). If you notice that tires are wearing unevenly between ro- tations, have the car checked by a Hyundai dealer so the cause may be corrected. After rotating, adjust the tire pressures and be sure to check wheel nut torque.


CAUTION:


Do not mix bias-ply and radial-ply under any circumstances. This may cause dangerous handling charac- teristics.


I070A01A-AAT


TIRE BALANCING


A tire that is out of balance may affect handling and tire wear. The tires on your Hyundai were balanced before the car was delivered but may need balancing again during the years you own the car. Whenever a tire is dismounted for re- pair, it should be rebalanced before being reinstalled on the car.


I050A01O-AAT


TIRE CHAINS Tire chains, if necessary, should be installed on the front wheels. If your vehicle is equipped with 4WD (four wheels drive), be sure to install the chains on all wheels. Be sure that the chains are installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. To minimize tire and chain wear, do not continue to use tire chains when they are no longer needed.


WARNING:


o Drive at lower speeds when driving on roads covered with snow or ice. o Use the SAE "S" class or wire &


plastic chains.


o If you hear noise caused by chains contacting the body, retighten the chain to avoid contact with the vehicle body.


o To prevent body damage, retighten the chains after driving 0.3 ~ 0.6
miles.

TIRE TRACTION Tire traction can be reduced if you drive on worn tires, tires that are improperly inflated or on slippery road surfaces. Tires should be replaced when tread wear indicators appear. To reduce the possibility of losing control, slow down whenever there is rain, snow or ice on the road.


! WARNING:


o Driving on worn-out tires is dan- gerous! Worn-out tires can cause loss of braking effectiveness, steering control and traction. When replacing tires, never mix radial and bias ply tires on the same car. If you replace radial tires with bias- ply tires, they must be installed in sets of four.


o Wheels that do not meet Hyundai's dimensional specifications may fit poorly and result in damage to the vehicle, including broken wheel studs.


I090A02JM-AAT


WHEN TO REPLACE TIRES


0.06 in. (1.6 mm)


Tread wear indicator


HSM5013
The original tires on your car have tread wear indicators. The location of tread wear indicators is shown by the "TWI" or " " marks, etc., The tread wear indicators appear when the tread depth is 0.06 in. (1.6 mm). The tire should be replaced when these appear as a solid bar across two or more grooves of the tread. Always replace your tires with those of the recommended size. If you change wheels, the new wheel's rim width and offset must meet Hyundai specification.

Traction AA, A, B, C - The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. Those grades represent the tire's ability to stop on wet pave- ment as measured under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction per- formance.


! WARNING:


The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight-ahead brak- ing traction tests, and does not in- clude acceleration, cornering, hy- droplaning, or peak traction charac- teristics.


Temperature A, B, C - The tempera- ture grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the tire's resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under con- trolled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by law.


I130B04A-AAT


Tire Quality Grading Department of Transportation quality grades - All passenger vehicle tires must conform to Federal Safety Stan- dards in addition to these grades. These quality grades are molded on the sidewall.


Treadwear - The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under con- trolled conditions on a specified gov- ernment test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and a half (1 - 1/2) times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm due to varia- tions in driving habits, service prac- tices and differences in road character- istics and climate.
