WARNING: Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries are significantly more volatile than alkaline, NiCd or NiMH batteries. All instructions and warnings must be

followed exactly to prevent property damage and/or serious injury as the mishandling of LiPo batteries can result in fire. By handling, charging or using the

included LiPo battery you assume all risks associated with LiPo batteries. If you do not agree with these conditions please return the complete product in

new, unused condition to the place of purchase immediately.

• You must always charge the LiPo battery in a safe, well-ventilated area away from flammable materials.

• Never charge the LiPo battery unattended at any time. When charging the battery you must always remain in constant observation to monitor the charging

process and react immediately to any potential problems that may occur.

• After flying/discharging the LiPo battery you must allow it to cool to ambient/room temperature before recharging.

• To charge the LiPo battery you must use only the included charger or a suitably compatible LiPo battery charger. Failure to do so may result in a fire causing

property damage and/or serious injury.

• If at any time the LiPo battery begins to balloon or swell, discontinue charging or discharging immediately. Quickly and safely disconnect the battery, then

place it in a safe, open area away from flammable materials to observe it for at least 15 minutes. Continuing to charge or discharge a battery that has begun

to balloon or swell can result in a fire. A battery that has ballooned or swollen even a small amount must be removed from service completely.

• Do not over-discharge the LiPo battery. Discharging the battery too low can cause damage to the battery resulting in

reduced power, flight duration or failure of the battery entirely. LiPo cells should not be discharged to below 3.0V each under load.

• Store the LiPo battery at room temperature and in a dry area for best results.

• When charging, transporting or temporarily storing the LiPo battery the temperature range should be from approximately 40–120° F (5–49° C). Do not

store the battery or aircraft in a hot garage, car or direct sunlight. If stored in a hot garage or car the battery can be damaged or even catch fire.

• Never leave batteries, chargers and power supplies unattended during use.

• Never attempt to charge low voltage, ballooned/swollen, damaged or wet batteries.

• Never allow children under 14 years of age to charge batteries.

• Never charge a battery if any of the wire leads have been damaged or shorted.

• Never attempt to disassemble the battery, charger or power supply.

• Never drop batteries, chargers or power supplies.

• Always inspect the battery, charger and power supply before charging.

• Always ensure correct polarity before connecting batteries, chargers and power supplies.

• Always disconnect the battery after charging.

• Always terminate all processes if the battery, charger or power supply malfunctions.

IMPORTANT NOTE: It's safer and better for the longevity of the battery to store it only partially charged for any length of time. Storing the battery

approximately 50% charged is typically best, however, it will take some careful management of the charge time and the use of a volt meter to achieve this

voltage. If you have the equipment and skills to achieve the 50% charge level for storage it is recommended. If not, simply be sure to not store the battery

fully charged whenever possible.

In fact, as long as the battery will be stored at approximately room temperature and for no more than a few weeks before the next use, it may be best to

store the battery in the discharged state after the last flight (as long as the battery was not over-discharged on the last flight).
