6. Notes on batteries and rechargeable batteries
• Keep batteries/rechargeable batteries out of the reach of children.
• Do not leave the batteries/rechargeable batteries lying around in the open; there is a risk of their being swallowed by
children or domestic animals. If swallowed, consult a doctor immediately!
• 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 they come 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 intended for this purpose. Use suitable 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. Disconnect the rechargeable
battery pack from the drive control unit.
Recharge the rechargeable batteries about every 3 months, as otherwise there may be a total discharge due to self-
discharge, which makes the rechargeable batteries 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 from the same manufacturer.
• Never mix batteries and rechargeable 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 lower voltage (batteries=1.5V, rechargeable batteries=1.2V) and the lower capacity of
rechargeable batteries does lead to a decrease in operating time. Usually this does not matter as the
operating time of the transmitter by far exceeds the operating time of the battery pack in the vehicle.
When using batteries in the transmitter, we recommend the use of high-quality alkaline batteries.
