G290A05Y-AATHEADLIGHT AIMING ADJUSTMENT
Before performing aiming adjustment, make
sure of the following.
1. Keep all tires inflated to the correct pressure.
2. Place the vehicle on level ground and press
the front bumper & rear bumper down sev-
eral times. Place vehicle at a distance of 118
in. (3m) from the test wall.
3. See that the vehicle is unloaded (except for
full levels of coolant, engine oil and fuel, and
spare tire, jack, and tools).
4. Clean the head light lenses and turn on the
headlights (Low beam).
5. Open the hood.
6. Draw the vertical line (through the center of
each headlight beam pattern) and the hori-
zontal line (through the center of each head-
light beam pattern) on the aiming screen.And then, draw the parallel line at 0.827 in. (21
mm) under the horizontal line.
7. Adjust each cut-off line of the low beam to the
parallel line with a phillips screwdriver -

7- 2 EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
H010E01Y-AATEGR System (If installed)
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.
H010D01A-AAT3. Exhaust Emission Control System
The Exhaust Emission Control System is a
highly effective system which controls exhaust
emissions while maintaining good vehicle
performace.
H010B01A-AAT1. 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.
H010A01L-AATEMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
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 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 Inspection and Maintenance
Test (2.7 V6 Vehicle with Traction Control
System)
o To prevent the vehicle from misfiring
during dynamometer testing, discon-
nect the ABS connector located on the
left side of the engine compartment.
o For more information, see shop manual
(BR-67, Wheel Speed Sensor)
H010C02S-AAT
2. Evaporative Emission Control
(Including 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
surge tank 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.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS 7- 3
!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.
H020A01A-AATCATALYTIC CONVERTER
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: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.

NUMBER (VIN)
The vehicle identification number (VIN) is the
number used in registering your car and in all
legal matters pertaining to its ownership, etc. It
can be found in three different places on your
car:
1. On the bulkhead between the engine and
passenger compartments.
2. On the left top side of the instrument panel
where it can be seen by looking down through
the windshield.
3. On the lower side of the center pillar outer
panel.The engine number is stamped on the engine
block as shown in the drawing.
The tire label located on the driver's door edge
gives the tire pressures recommended for your
vehicle.
