7. Battery safety information

Although use of batteries and rechargeable batteries in everyday life is a matter of course today,
there are many dangers and problems. Therefore, always observe the following information and
safety notes in handling of batteries and rechargeable 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 must never be short circuited, taken apart or thrown into a fire. Risk 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 charge rechargeable batteries which are intended for this purpose; use suitable rechargeable bat-
tery chargers.
• Please observe the correct polarity of batteries (note positive/+ and negative/-) when inserting the bat-
teries and when connecting a rechargeable drive battery.
• Never mix disposable batteries with rechargeable batteries. The transmitter can be powered with dispos-
able or rechargeable batteries.
• Always replace the entire set of batteries in the transmitter. Do not mix full batteries with half-full ones.
Always use batteries of the same type and from the same manufacturer.
• The type of battery charger that you require may vary according to the type of rechargeable battery
(NiMH, LiPo, lithium-ion, etc.). Never charge e.g. LiPo 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.
• Only charge intact and undamaged batteries. Do not charge batteries if the external insulation is dam-
aged or if the battery is deformed or swollen. This may cause a fire or explosion!
• Never charge batteries immediately after use. Always allow them to cool for at least 5 - 10 minutes.
• Always remove the drive battery from the model before charging it.
• Place the battery charger on a heat-resistant, non-combustible surface. The battery charger and the
drive battery become hot during the charging process. Never cover the battery charger or drive battery.
Do not expose the battery charger or drive battery to extremely high/low temperatures, direct sunlight
or moisture/wet.
• Never leave batteries unattended when they are charging.
