Battery Recharging
By battery charger
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes dischargedin a short time (because, for exam-
ple, 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.
AGM battery
Absorbent Glass Matt (AGM) batteries are maintenance-free
and we recommend that the
AGM battery be serviced by an
authorized Dealer of Genesis
Brand Products. For charging
your AGM battery, use only fully
automatic battery chargers that
are specially developed for AGM
batteries.
When replacing the AGM bat- tery, we recommend that you
use parts for replacement from
an authorized Dealer of Genesis
Brand Products.
Do not open or remove the cap on top of the battery. This may
cause leaks of internal elec-
trolyte that could result in
severe injury.
NOTICE
Always follow these instruc-
tions when recharging your
vehicle's battery to avoid the
risk of SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH from explosions or acid
burns:
Before performing mainte-nance or recharging the bat-
tery, turn off all accessories
and press the Engine Start/
Stop button to the OFF posi-
tion.
Keep all flames, sparks, or smoking materials away from
the battery.
Always work outdoors or in an area with plenty of ventilation.
Wear eye protection when checking the battery during
charging.
The battery must be removed from the vehicle and placed in
a well ventilated area.
Watch the battery during charging, and stop or reduce
the charging rate if the battery
cells begin boiling violently.

WARNING

07
A vehicle's electrical system is pro-
tected from electrical overload dam-
age by fuses.
This vehicle has 4 fuse panels, one
located in the driver's side panel bol-
ster, another in the engine compart-
ment, and two others in the trunk
compartment.
If any of your vehicle's lights, acces-
sories, or controls do not work, check
the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse
has blown, the element inside the
fuse will be melted or broken.If the electrical system does not
work, first check the driver's side
fuse panel. Before replacing a blown
fuse, turn the engine and all switches
off, and then disconnect the negative
battery cable. Always replace a
blown fuse with one of the same rat-
ing.
If the replacement fuse blows, this
indicates an electrical problem. Avoid
using the system involved and immedi-
ately consult an authorized Dealer of
Genesis Brand Products.
Information
Four kinds of fuses are used : blade
type for lower amperage rating, car-
tridge type/Multi fuse/Fusible link for
higher amperage ratings.
Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove
fuses because it may cause a
short circuit and damage the sys-
tem.

NEVER replace a fuse with any-
thing but another fuse of the
same rating.
A higher capacity fuse couldcause damage and possibly
cause a fire.
Do not install a wire or alu- minum foil instead of the
proper fuse - even as a tempo-
rary repair. It may cause
extensive wiring damage and
possibly a fire.
