9.4 USB charger
The USB charger must not be allowed to get damp or wet and must only be operated in dry, enclosed indoor
spaces.
Do not connect the USB charger to the USB port of a computer/laptop or USB hub because the current is not high
enough for charging. On the other hand, too high a current could damage the USB port.
Use, for example, a USB power adaptor that provides an output current of at least 2 A.
Use the included USB charger to charge the LiPo drive battery, as the USB charger is a perfect match for this
battery.
If you wish to use a different charger, ensure it is suitable for charging LiPo batteries (nominal voltage 3.7 V per
cell). Always read the operating instructions for the charger of choice before connecting the battery!
Using an unsuitable charger poses a risk of fire, battery explosion or loss of warranty/guarantee!
Ensure the correct polarity when connecting (red cable of the T plug = plus/+, black cable = minus/-). The charger
must also have a balancer. Connect the 3-wire balancer cable of the battery (XH connector) to the charger of
choice.
Cell voltages may differ when charging a multi-cell lithium battery without a balancer. This results in a detrimental
deep discharge, which renders the battery unusable. On the other hand, too high a charging voltage applied to a
cell during the charging process can lead to an explosion or fire.
Never use an excessive charging current. The maximum charging current of the supplied LiPo battery is 1C (1C is
the capacity value, e.g. battery capacity 1800 mAh, charging current at 1C = 1800 mA = 1.8 A).
Before connecting the drive battery to the charger, completely disconnect it from the vehicle. Always remove the
drive battery from the model before charging it.
When charging the drive battery, place it on a fireproof surface, e.g. a stone tile. Keep the charger and drive bat-
tery away from flammable objects. Ensure sufficient space between the charger and the drive battery; do not place
the drive battery on or near the charger.
Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation, as the drive battery and charger may heat up during the charging pro-
cess. Never cover the charger and the drive battery!
Never leave the drive battery unattended when it is charging. Inspect the charger regularly to ensure that the
rechargeable battery is not overheating or expanding. This indicates an imminent risk of fire or explosion! If the
battery overheats or starts to expand, disconnect it from the charger immediately and take it to a location where it
will not cause any additional damage if it explodes or catches fire (e.g. outdoors).
Disconnect the drive battery from the charger when it is fully charged.
