Hyundai Sonata: Battery recharging
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free, calcium-based battery.
- If the battery becomes discharged in a short time (because, for example, the headlights or interior lights were left on while the vehicle was not in use), recharge it by slow charging (trickle) for 10 hours.
- If the battery gradually discharges because of high electric load while the vehicle is being used, recharge it at 20- 30A for two hours.

When recharging the battery, observe the following precautions:
- The battery must be removed from the vehicle and placed in an area with good ventilation.

- Wear eye protection when checking the battery during charging.
- Disconnect the battery charger in the following order.
1. Turn off the battery charger main switch.
