 and rechargeable batteries
Although batteries and rechargeable batteries are commonly used nowadays, they pose numerous
dangers and problems. Especially with LiPo/LiIon rechargeable batteries with their high energy content
(in comparison with conventional NiCd or NiMH rechargeable batteries) various regulations must be
observed as otherwise there is danger of explosion and fire.
Thus, be sure to observe the following information and safety instructions when handling batteries and
rechargeable batteries.
• Keep batteries/rechargeable batteries out of the reach of children.
• Do not leave the batteries/rechargeable batteries lying around openly; there is a risk of them being swallowed by
children or pets. If swallowed, seek instant medical attention!
• Batteries/rechargeable batteries must never be short-circuited, dismantled or thrown into fire. There is danger of
explosion!
• Leaky or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries may cause caustic burns if they come into contact with skin.
Therefore, you should use suitable protective gloves.
• 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. Normal batteries (1.5 V) are meant to be used once only and must
be disposed of when empty.
• When inserting batteries/rechargeable batteries or when connecting a battery pack or a charger, observe the correct
polarity (plus/+ and minus/-). Wrong polarity may damage the transmitter, the airplane and the rechargeable batteries.
There is also a risk of fire and explosion.
• Always replace the entire set of batteries or rechargeable batteries. Do not mix full batteries/rechargeable batteries
with half-full ones. Always use batteries or rechargeable batteries of the same type and manufacturer.
• Never mix batteries and rechargeable batteries! Either use batteries or rechargeable batteries for the remote control
transmitter.
• If the device is not used over a long period of time (e.g. during storage), remove the inserted batteries (or rechargeable
batteries) from the remote control to prevent damage from leaking batteries/rechargeable batteries.
Caution!
After the flight, the flight battery must be disconnected from the helicopter. Do not leave the flight battery
connected to the helicopter if you do not use the helicopter (e.g. during transport or storage). Otherwise,
the flight battery might be fully discharged and rendered destroyed/unusable!
• Recharge rechargeable batteries about every 3 months, as otherwise they might be fully discharged due to self-
discharge, which renders the rechargeable batteries useless.
• The supplied charger may only be used with the enclosed LiPo flight battery. Never try to use it for charging different
rechargeable batteries! There is a risk of fire and explosion! The charger is not suited for charging rechargeable
batteries in the remote control transmitter!
