Hyundai Santa Fe: Exhaust Emission Control System / Description and operation
Exhaust emissions (CO, HC, NOx) are controlled by a combination of engine modifications
and the addition of special control components.
Modifications to the combustion chamber, intake manifold, camshaft and ignition
system form the basic control system.
These items have been integrated into a highly effective system which controls
exhaust emissions while maintaining good drivability and fuel economy.
Air/Fuel Mixture Control System [Multiport Fuel Injection (MFI) System]
The MFI system uses signals from the heated oxygen sensor to activate and control
the injector installed in the manifold for each cylinder, thus precisely regulating
the air/fuel mixture ratio and reducing emissions.
This in turn allows the engine to produce exhaust gas of the proper composition
to permit the use of a three way catalyst. The three way catalyst is designed
to convert the three pollutants [hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), and
oxides of nitrogen (NOx)] into harmless substances. There are two operating
modes in the MFI system.
1. |
Open Loop air/fuel ratio is controlled by information pre-programmed
into the ECM.
|
2. |
Closed Loop air/fuel ratio is constantly adjusted by the ECM based on
information supplied by the oxygen sensor.

Description
The catalytic converter of the gasoline engine is a three way catalyst. It oxidizes
carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons (HC), and separates oxygen from the oxides
of nitrogen (NOx)...
Other information:
Engine oil and filter
The engine oil and filter should be changed at the intervals specified in the
maintenance schedule. If the vehicle is being driven in severe conditions, more
frequent oil and filter changes are required.
Drive belts
Inspect all drive belts for evidence of cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil saturation
and replace if necessary...
In some circumstances resetting the sunroof operation may need to be performed.
Some instances where resetting the sunroof may be required include:
- When the 12-volt battery is either disconnected or discharged
- When the sunroof fuse is replaced
- If the sunroof one-touch AUTO OPEN/ CLOSE operation is not functioning properly

The vehicles are equipped with a Supplemental Air Bag System for the driver’s
seat and front passenger’s seats.
The front air bags are designed to supplement the three-point seat belts. For
these air bags to provide protection, the seat belts must be worn at all times when
driving.
