Bondi type hydrodynamic accretion of the surrounding matter onto Kerr black hole with an arbitrary rotational parameter is considered. The effects of viscosity, thermal conductivity and interaction with radiation field are neglected. The black hole is supposed to be at rest with respect to matter at infinity. The flow is adiabatic and has no angular momentum. The fact that usually in astrophysics substance far from the black hole has nonrelativistic temperature introduces small parameter to the problem and allows to search for the solution as a perturbation to the accretion of a cold, that is dust--like, matter. However, far from the black hole on the scales of order of the radius of the sonic surface the expansion must be performed with respect to Bondi spherically symmetrical solution for the accretion on a Newtonian gravitating centre. The equations thus obtained are solved analytically. The conditions of the regularity of the solution at the sonic surface and at infinity allow to specify unique solution, to find the shape of the sonic surface and to determine the corrections to Bondi accretion rate.
