EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
The emission control system of your
vehicle is covered by a written limited
warranty. Please see the warranty in-
formation contained in the Service
Passport in your vehicle.
Your vehicle is equipped with an emis-
sion control system to meet all emis-
sion regulations.
1. Crankcase emission control
system
The positive crankcase ventilation sys-
tem is employed to prevent air pollution
caused by blow-by gases being emitted
from the crankcase. This system sup-
plies 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 into the induc-
tion system.
There are three emission control sys-
tems which are as follows.
(1) Crankcase emission control system
(2) Evaporative emission control sys-
2. Evaporative emission
control system
tem
(3) Exhaust emission control system
The Evaporative Emission Control Sys-
tem is designed to prevent fuel vapours
from escaping into the atmosphere.
In order to ensure the proper function of
the emission control systems, it is rec-
ommended that you have your car in-
spected and maintained by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer in accordance with
the maintenance schedule.
Canister
Fuel vapours generated inside the fuel
tank are absorbed and stored in the on-
board canister. When the engine is run-
ning, the fuel vapours absorbed in the
canister are drawn into the surge tank
through the purge control solenoid
valve.
