Rechargeable Batteries

• Batteries must be kept out of the reach of children.
• Do not let batteries/rechargeable batteries lie around openly. There is a risk of batteries being swallowed by children
or pets. In such a case, seek instant medical attention!
• Batteries/rechargeable batteries must never be short-circuited, taken apart or thrown into fire. There is a risk of
explosion!
• Leaking or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries may cause acid burns when coming into contact with skin,
therefore use suitable protective gloves.
• Do not recharge normal, non-rechargeable batteries. There is a risk of fire and explosion! Only charge rechargeable
batteries, which are intended for this purpose; use suitable rechargeable battery chargers.
• When inserting batteries/rechargeable batteries or when connecting a battery pack observe correct polarity (note
plus/+ and minus/-).
• If the device is not used for a longer period of time (e.g. storage), take the inserted batteries or rechargeable batteries
out of the transmitter to avoid damage from leaking batteries/rechargeable batteries. Separate the drive battery from
the drive control/receiver.
Recharge the accumulators about every 3 months, as otherwise there may be a total discharge due to self-discharge,
which makes the accumulators useless.
• Always exchange 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 storage batteries! Either use batteries or rechargeable batteries for the transmitter.
The operation of the transmitter with rechargeable batteries instead of batteries is possible.
However, the low voltage (batteries=1.5V, rechargeable batteries=1.2V) and the lower capacity of
rechargeable batteries does lead to a decrease of the operating time. However, normally this does not
matter, since the operating time of the transmitter is far beyond that of the drive battery.
When inserting batteries, we recommend the use of high-quality alkaline batteries.
When using rechargeable batteries there can be a decrease in range.
