Battery and Rechargeable Battery Notes
Although use of batteries and rechargeable batteries in everyday life is a matter of
course today, there are many dangers and problems. In particular in LiPo/LiIon bat-
teries with high energy content (as compared to conventional NiCd or NiMH batte-
ries), various provisions must be complied with to avoid danger of explosion and fire.
The model is delivered with a firmly installed, non-replaceable rechargeable battery
and a matching charger. Nevertheless, we are including extensive information on
handling batteries for safety reasons. Should you use your own accessories, please
ensure you follow all information enclosed by the respective manufacturer.
a) Transmitter
• 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 on contact; therefore, use suitable protective gloves.
• Do not recharge normal batteries. There is a risk of fire and explosion!
• Make sure that the polarity is correct when inserting the batteries (pay attention
to plus/+ and minus/-).
• If the device is not used for an extended period of time (e.g. storage), remove the
inserted batteries from the remote control to avoid damage from leaking batteries.
• Always replace the whole set of batteries. Do not mix full batteries with half-full
ones. Always use batteries/rechargeable batteries of the same type and manu-
facturer.
• Never mix batteries and rechargeable batteries!
b) Flight Battery
Attention!
Leave the on-off switch of the quadrocopter in the "off" position ("OFF") when you
are not using the flight model (e.g. during transport or storage). Otherwise, the LiPo
flight battery may be deep-discharged and is thus destroyed and rendered useless!
There is also a danger of malfunction due to interferences. The rotors could start up
inadvertently and cause damage or injury.
• Never charge the LiPo flight battery immediately after use. Always leave the LiPo
flight battery to cool off first (at least 5 - 10 minutes).
• Charge the LiPo flight battery firmly installed in the quadrocopter only via the en-
closed USB-LiPo-charger.
• Only charge intact and undamaged batteries. If the outer isolation of the rechar-
geable battery is damaged or the battery is deformed or bloated, it must not be
charged. In this case, there is immediate danger of fire and explosion!
• Place the model on a fire-resistant surface for charging (e.g. a plate). Keep a
distance to flammable objects (use USB extension cable if required).
• As the charger and the rechargeable LiPo flight battery both heat up during the
charging procedure, it is necessary to ensure sufficient ventilation. Never cover
the charger or the quadrocopter!
• Never leave LiPo batteries unattended while charging them.
• Remove the quadrocopter from the charger when it is fully charged.
• The charger is intended for dry indoor use only. The charger and the quadrocopter
must not become damp or wet.
• There is the risk of fire or explosion by the rechargeable battery in case of error.
LiPo batteries specifically react very strongly at moisture and oxygen due to the
chemicals contained in them! Do not expose the charger or quadrocopter to high/
low temperatures or to direct solar radiation.
Disposal
a) Product
Electronic devices are recyclable and should not be disposed of in household waste.
Dispose of the product according to the applicable statutory provisions at the end of
its service life.
Remove any inserted batteries/rechargeable batteries and dispose of them sepa-
rately from the product.
b) Batteries/Rechargeable Batteries
You as the end user are required by law (Battery Ordinance) to return all used batteries/re-
chargeable batteries. Disposing of them in the household waste is prohibited.
Batteries/rechargeable batteries that contain hazardous substances are labelled
with the adjacent icon to indicate that disposal in domestic waste is forbidden. The
descriptions for the respective heavy metals are: Cd = cadmium, Hg = mercury,
Pb = lead (the names are indicated on the battery/rechargeable battery e.g. below
the rubbish bin symbol shown on the left).
You may return used batteries/rechargeable batteries free of charge at the official collection
points in your community, in our stores, or wherever batteries/rechargeable batteries are sold.
You thus fulfil your statutory obligations and contribute to the protection of the environment.
