SAFETY FIRST
Appropriate service methods and proper repair procedures are essential for safe,
reliable operation of all motor vehicles as well as the personal safety of the individual
performing the repair. There are numerous variations in procedures, techniques, tools
and parts for servicing vehicles, as well as in the skill of the individual performing the
service. This module cannot possibly anticipate all such variations and provide advice or
caution to each. Accordingly, anyone who departs from the instruction provided in this
module must first establish that they compromise neither their personal safety nor the
vehicle integrity by their choice of methods, tools or parts. The following list
contains general warnings that should always be followed while working on a vehicle.
• Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
• Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires underbody work.
• Be sure the ignition switch is always off unless otherwise specified by a procedure.
• Set the parking brake when working on the vehicle.
• Operate the engine only in a well ventilated area.
• Keep clear of moving parts when the engine is running.
• To prevent serious burns, avoid contact with hot metal parts such as the radiator,
exhaust manifold, tail pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
• Do not smoke while working on a vehicle.
This course requires the student/technician to work closely with a high voltage battery.
In order to maximize safety, the student/technician will be required to remove all metal-
lic objects on your person, including but not limited to watches, body piercings, pins,
buttons, bracelets, etc, in order to reduce the risk of electrical arcing and potential elec-
trocution. In addition, those students/technicians who use metallic medical devices,
such as pacemakers, insulin pumps, etc., should be aware of the potential risks of work-
ing closely with a high voltage battery.
Within this module you will find Notes, Cautions and Warnings which provide critical
information and help you do your job safely and efficiently. When you see a Note,
Caution or Warning, be certain you understand the message before you attempt to per-
form any part of a service procedure.Below are the definitions of these terms.
NOTE

provide additional information to help clarify a particular point or procedure.
CAUTION
! A Caution alerts you to the possibility of damage to tools, equipment, or the
vehicle. A Caution recommends that a procedure must be done in a certain way to
avoid potential problems resulting from improper techniques or methods.
WARNING
! A Warning alerts you to the highest level of risk. Warnings inform you that a
procedure must be done in a particular way to minimize the chances of an accident
that could result in personal injury or even loss of life.

When the fuel tank is sealed and no leaks exist, the fuel
tank pressure goes down when the fuel tank
temperature goes down.

NVLD OPERATION
Figure 1.
The pressure switch contact area is located on the
diaphragm.
Figure 2.
When the purge control solenoid valve is turned ON
while the engine is running, the pressure in the fuel tank
drops into a vacuum.
Figure 3.
If the pressure in the fuel tank is slightly higher than the
atmospheric pressure, the diaphragm moves down
against the spring force to release pressure through the
poppet seal into the canister.
Figure 4.
If the pressure in the fuel tank goes up high while
refueling, the tank pressure increase causes the poppet
valve to open and releases the pressure into the
canister.

input shaft of the transaxle is not operating.
EOP OPERATION
ENGINE AUTO STOP When the vehicle speed is zero, or when the engine is
turned off, the mechanical oil pump will not operate.

Two (2) connectors are used, one for the OPU motor
pump control and the other for the motor position
sensor.
OIL PUMP MAIN RELAY When the OPU commands the oil pump main relay ON,
voltage to operate the EOP is supplied by the OPU.
OPU STATUS LINE The OPU performs self-diagnosis and sends the status
of the EOP main relay, OPU power, motor position
sensor, and the 3-phase motor control wire to the TCM
by CAN communication.
EOP SPEED COMMAND LINE If CAN communication fails, the TCM directly controls
the EOP speed using directly linked back-up wiring
(speed command line : 0 ~ 5 Vdc pulse signal).

AUXILIARY SYSTEMS
The A/C compressor and the heater water pump are not
operated by the engine. These components are
operated with power from electric motors to allow cabin
cooling and heating while the vehicle is in HEV and EV
modes.
Water Pump
COMMUNICATION The HCU sends the available high voltage power to the
FATC to control the compressor RPM for cooling
performance.
HEATER WATER PUMP The A/C controller operates the HWP when the engine
CONTROL is not running and heating is required.
OVERVIEW The Active Air Flap (AAF) system is located behind the
front bumper grill and in front of the heat exchangers
CONTROL SYSTEM The AAF control module is incorporated into the Smart
Actuator assembly. The low voltage battery system
provides power to the Smart Actuator. Flaps are
controlled mechanically by the actuator in either the
open or closed position. Flap position is monitored by
an internal position sensor
CURRENT DATA Active Air Flap current data is accessed through the
AAF system on the GDS.
COMMUNICATION
COMMUNICATION cont.
COMMUNICATION cont.
IMMOBILIZER Because the HEV can start moving without the engine
running and on electric motor power only, the HCU and
MCU, which control the electric motor, functions as the
immobilizer.
COMMUNICATION cont.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW The MDPS system used in the Optima HEV is the same
as the MOBIS system installed in the conventional
Optima.
MDPS cont.
INPUTS & OUTPUTS The hybrid MDPS control function is the same as
Optima with an addition of the HEV Ready signal from
the HCU. This allows motor assist even with the engine
off.
MDPS cont.
MDPS cont.
MDPS cont.
STEERING ANGLE SENSOR As the steering wheel rotates, the main gear rotates.
Two planetary gears with a different number of gear
teeth will rotate at the same time as the magnet
attached in the planetary gear rotates.
STEERING ANGLE SENSOR Calibration of the steering angle sensor using the GDS
CALIBRATION is required under the following conditions:
x After replacing the MDPS assembly or ECU
x After repairing the steering system (e.g. wheel
alignment, etc.)
x When the corresponding trouble code exists in the
system (e.g. C1261)
MDPS cont.
MDPS cont.
MDPS cont.
STEERING ANGLE SENSOR This function matches the steering angle entered in the
(ASP) CALIBRATION MDPS ECU with the actual steering angle of the
vehicle.
CONFIRMING THE Wait for 15 seconds after turning the ignition off, then
INITIALIZATION align the front wheels in a straight line and check if the
value of the steering angle in the sensor output values
is within 5 degrees, and finally, check that the
initialization of the steering angle has been completed.
When the initialization is completed successfully, it is
displayed as “CAL & IND”.

SAFETY FIRST
Appropriate service methods and proper repair procedures are essential for safe,
reliable operation of all motor vehicles as well as the personal safety of the individual
performing the repair. There are numerous variations in procedures, techniques, tools
and parts for servicing vehicles, as well as in the skill of the individual performing the
service. This module cannot possibly anticipate all such variations and provide advice or
caution to each. Accordingly, anyone who departs from the instruction provided in this
module must first establish that they compromise neither their personal safety nor the
vehicle integrity by their choice of methods, tools or parts. The following list
contains general warnings that should always be followed while working on a vehicle.
• Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
• Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires underbody work.
• Be sure the ignition switch is always off unless otherwise specified by a procedure.
• Set the parking brake when working on the vehicle.
• Operate the engine only in a well ventilated area.
• Keep clear of moving parts when the engine is running.
• To prevent serious burns, avoid contact with hot metal parts such as the radiator,
exhaust manifold, tail pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
• Do not smoke while working on a vehicle.
