7. Notes on Batteries and Rechargeable Batteries
Despite the fact that handling batteries and rechargeable batteries in daily life nowadays is a matter of fact, there are
still numerous dangers and problems involved. For LiPo/LiIon rechargeable batteries in particular, due to their high
energy content (in comparison to conventional NiCd or NiMH rechargeable batteries), various regulations must be
observed under any circumstances, because otherwise there is danger of explosion and fire.
Ensure that you observe the following information and safety measures when handling 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. If swallowed, consult 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 when touched without the
use of adequate 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 batter-
ies. There also is a risk of fire and explosion.
• Always replace the entire set of batteries or rechargeable batteries. Never mix fully charged batteries/rechargeable
batteries with partially discharged ones. Always use batteries or rechargeable batteries of the same type and manu-
facturer.
• Never mix batteries and rechargeable batteries! Either use batteries or rechargeable batteries for the remote con-
trol.
• If the device is not used for an extended period of time (e.g. storage), remove the inserted batteries (or rechargeable
batteries) from the remote control to avoid damage from leaking batteries/rechargeable batteries.
Attention!
After the flight, the flight battery must be disconnected from the model. Do not leave the rechargeable flight
battery connected to the flight model if the latter is not used (e.g. during transport or storage). Otherwise,
the flight battery may be fully discharged and is thus 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 for the enclosed LiPo flight accumulator. 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 recharge-
able batteries in the remote control!
• Never charge the flight battery immediately after use. Always leave the flight rechargeable battery to cool off first (at
least 5-10 minutes).
