Battery Safety Information; A) General Information - Reely Cyclone Bedienungsanleitung

• If the batteries (or rechargeable batteries) in the transmitter are weak, the transmission range decreases.
Exchange the batteries or rechargeable batteries for new ones.
• When the drive battery is nearly empty, the vehicle will slow down and may not respond properly to the
transmitter.
The drive battery in the vehicle is not just used for the voltage/power supply to the engine, but also for
the receiver and the steering servo.
In the event of malfunctions, stop driving the vehicle (switch the vehicle off, disconnect drive battery from
the vehicle, switch off the transmitter). Then replace the vehicle drive battery with a fully charged drive
battery or recharge the drive battery.
• Leave a gap of 5 - 10 minutes before every battery change so that the motor and electronics can cool
down.
• Allow the drive battery to cool down completely before charging.

6. Battery safety information

Batteries present numerous safety hazards. Compared with conventional NiMH batteries, lithium
rechargeable batteries have a high energy content. For this reason, it is essential to comply with
safety regulations to prevent the risk of a fire or explosion.
Always observe the following safety information when handling batteries.

a) General information

• Keep batteries out of the reach of children.
• Do not leave batteries lying around, as they present a choking hazard for children and pets. Seek im-
mediate medical advice if a battery is swallowed.
• Batteries/rechargeable batteries must never be short-circuited, taken apart or thrown into fire. Danger
of explosion!
• When handling leaking or damaged batteries, always use suitable protective gloves to avoid burning
your skin.
• Liquids leaking from batteries are very chemically aggressive. Objects or surfaces coming into contact
with these liquids could be severely damaged. Always store batteries in a suitable location that is not
prone to damage.
• Do not attempt to recharge disposable, non-rechargeable batteries. This may cause a fire or explosion!
Only recharge compatible rechargeable batteries and ensure that you use a suitable battery charger.
• When inserting batteries into the transmitter or connecting the battery to the vehicle, pay attention to the
polarity markings (plus/+ and minus/-) to ensure that the batteries are connected in the correct polarity.
• The type of charger you require may vary depending on the type of rechargeable battery (NiMH, LiPo,
Li-ion...). For example, you should never charge Li-ion batteries with a NiMH battery charger. This may
cause a fire or explosion!
Always charge the supplied drive battery (and any identical replacement drive batteries) with the sup-
plied battery charger.
