WARNING

Always follow these instructions when charging your vehicle battery to avoid the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from explosions or acid burns:

  • Before performing maintenance or charging the battery, turn off all accessories and place the ignition switch in the LOCK/OFF position.
  • Keep all flames, sparks, or smoking materials away from the battery.
  • Always work outdoors or in a well-ventilated area.
  • Wear safety glasses when checking the battery during charging.
  • The battery must be removed from the vehicle and placed in a well-ventilated area.
  • Monitor the battery during charging and stop or reduce the charging rate if the battery cells begin to boil violently.
  • The negative battery cable must be removed first and installed last when the battery is disconnected. Disconnect the charger in the following order:
    (1) Turn off the charger main switch.
    (2) Disconnect the negative clamp from the negative battery terminal.
    (3) Disconnect the positive clamp from the positive battery terminal.
  • Always use a genuine battery approved by HYUNDAI when replacing the battery.

NOTICE

AGM Battery

  • Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) batteries are maintenance-free, and we recommend that the AGM battery be serviced by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer. To charge your AGM battery, use only automatic chargers specifically designed for AGM batteries.
  • When replacing an AGM battery, we recommend that you use replacement parts from an authorized HYUNDAI retail dealer.
  • Do not open or remove the cover on top of the battery. This may cause internal electrolyte leakage which may result in serious injury.

Jump Starting

After starting from a good battery, drive the vehicle for at least 30 minutes or run at idle for at least 60 minutes before shutting off. Alternatively, you may visit a dealer to charge and test the battery.

The vehicle may not restart if you turn it off before the battery has regained enough charge. See "Starting and Driving" in Chapter 6 for more information on jump-starting procedures.
