Notes on Batteries and Rechargeable Batteries
> Keep batteries/rechargeable batteries out of the reach of children.
> Do not leave any batteries/rechargeable batteries lying around openly. There is a risk of batteries
being swallowed by children or pets. In this case, see a doctor immediately!
> Batteries/rechargeable batteries must never be short-circuited, disassembled or thrown into fire. There
is a danger of explosion!
> Leaking or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries can cause chemical burns to skin. Wear suitable
protective gloves when handling them.
> Do not recharge normal batteries. There is a risk of fire and explosion!
> Only charge rechargeable batteries intended for this purpose. Use suitable battery chargers. Non-
rechargeable batteries (rated voltage 1.5 V) are meant to be used once only and must be disposed of
when empty.
> Always observe correct polarity (plus/+ and minus/-) of a battery pack when connecting the recharge-
able battery.
> Wrong polarity may not only damage the flight model and the rechargeable batteries. There also is a
risk of fire and explosion.
> Never charge the enclosed drive battery immediately after use. Always leave the drive battery to cool
off first (at least 10 - 15 minutes).
> Only charge intact and undamaged batteries.
> If the external insulation of the LiPo battery is damaged or if the rechargeable battery is deformed or
bloated, it must not be charged. In this case there is serious danger of fire and explosion!
> Never damage the outer cover of a drive battery, do not cut the foil cover, and do not prick the LiPo
battery with sharp objects. There is a risk of fire and explosion!
> Always remove the drive battery that is to be charged from the model and place it on a fireproof sup-
port. Keep distance to flammable objects and never cover the rechargeable battery or the charger.
> Never charge rechargeable batteries without supervision and only use chargers suitable for the
battery.
> Disconnect the batteries from the charger when they are fully charged.
Miscellaneous
