G060B03GK-AAT Replacing the Spark Plugs

HSM392
Your engine was originally equipped with plati- num-tipped or iridium-tipped spark plugs. Platinum-tipped or iridium-tipped spark plugs will last longer than conventional type spark plugs. Platinum-tipped spark plug can be iden- tified by blue lines on the ceramic shell.

NOTE: Do not clean or regap platinum-tipped/ iridium-tipped spark plugs.

The spark plugs should be changed at the intervals specified in the vehicle maintenance schedule in Section 5 or whenever engine performance indicates they should be changed. Symptoms that suggest poor spark plug perfor- mance include engine misfiring under load, loss of fuel economy, poor acceleration, etc. When spark plugs are replaced, always use spark plugs recommended by Hyundai. The use of other spark plugs can result in loss of perfor- mance, radio interference or engine damage.

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 fuse box to simplify this operation).

3. Be sure to check all other fuses even if you find one that appears to have burned out.

HGK4003
The fuse box for the lights and other electrical accessories will be found low on the dashboard on the driver’s side. Inside the box you will find a list showing the circuits protected by each fuse. If any of your car’s lights or other electrical accessories stop working, a blown fuse could be the reason. If the fuse has burned out, you will see that the metal strip inside the fuse has burned through. If you suspect a blown fuse, follow this procedure:

HXDFL1026-1
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.

Batteries can be dangerous! When working with batteries, carefully observe the follow- ing precautions to avoid serious injuries.

The fluid in the battery contains a strong solution of sulfuric acid, which is poisonous and highly corrosive. Be careful not to spill it on yourself or the car. If you do spill battery fluid on yourself, immediately do the following:

o If battery fluid is on your skin, flush the affected areas with water for at least 15
minutes and then seek medical assistance. o If battery fluid is in your eyes, rinse out your eyes with water and get medical assistance as soon as possible. While you are being driven to get medical assistance, continue to rinse your eyes by using a sponge or soft cloth saturated with water.

o If you swallow battery fluid, drink a large quantity of water or milk followed by milk of magnesia, eat a raw egg or drink vegetable oil. Get medical assistance as soon as possible.

While batteries are being charged (either by a battery charger or by the vehicle’s generator), they produce explosive gases. Always ob- serve these warnings to prevent injuries from occurring:

G210B03A-AAT Checking the Battery

Keep the battery clean. Any evidence of corro- sion around the battery posts or terminals should be removed using a solution of house- hold baking soda and warm water. After the battery terminals are dry, cover them with a light coating of grease.

PROPOSITION 65 WARNING: Battery posts, terminals, and related acces- sories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Batteries also contain other chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer. Wash hands after handling.

7 EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM

H010A02GK-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.

1) Crankcase Emission Control System 2) Evaporative Emission Control System 3) Exhaust Emission Control System

In order to ensure 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 (Vehicle with Electronic Stability Pro- gram)

o To prevent the vehicle from misfiring during dynamometer testing, discon- nect the ABS connector located inside of the wheel guard (driver side).

o For more information, see shop manual

(BR Group, 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 fresh 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 onboard 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 per- formance.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS

o Remember that your Hyundai dealer is

your best source of assistance.

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.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER

H020A01A-AAT

Catalytic Converter (Federal, California)

Catalytic Converter (California) HGK5061

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 may 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:

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.

RECOMMENDED INFLATION PRES- SURES

I030B01GK

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:

HGK6003
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.

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 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 gage to check tire pressure. You can not 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 gage 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 gage. Be sure to put the valve caps back on the valve stems. They help prevent leaks by keeping out dirt and moisture.

I030B01GK-GAT 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.

1. Manufacturer or Brand name

o Manufacturer or Brand name is

shown. 2. Tire size

(example: P215/45R17 87V) o The "P" indicates the tire is de-

signed for passenger vehicles. A "T" is the designation for a tem- porary spare tire.

o Three-digit number (215): This num- ber gives the width in millimeters of the tire from sidewall edge to sidewall edge.

o Two-digit number (45): This num- ber, known as the aspect ratio, gives the tire's ratio of height to width.

o R: The "R" stands for radial. o Two-digit number (17): This num- ber is the wheel or rim diameter in inches.

o Two digit number (87): This num- ber is the tire's load index. It is a measurement of how much weight each tire can support.
