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/Lion rechargeable batteries in particu-
lar, various regulations must be observed under any circumstances due to their high energy content (in
comparison to conventional NiCd or NiMH rechargeable batteries), 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.
a) General Information
• 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. Batteries (1.5 V) are meant to be used once only and must be
properly disposed of when empty.
• When inserting batteries/rechargeable batteries or when connecting a battery pack or a charger, observe the correct
polarity (note plus/+ and minus/-). Wrong polarity may damage the transmitter, the airplane and the rechargeable
batteries. There also is a risk of fire and explosion.
• Never charge rechargeable batteries unattended.
• Always replace the entire set of batteries or rechargeable batteries in the transmitter. Never mix fully charged batter-
ies/rechargeable batteries with partially discharged ones. Always use batteries or rechargeable batteries of the
same type and manufacturer.
• Never mix batteries and rechargeable batteries! Either use batteries or rechargeable batteries for the remote control
system.
• If you do not use it for any extended period of time (e.g. during storage), remove the batteries inserted in the
transmitter to prevent damage from leaking batteries/rechargeable batteries.
b) Special Information on the LiPo Flight Battery
• After the flight, the flight battery must be disconnected from the model. Do not leave the flight battery connected to
the model if you do not use it (e.g. during transport or storage). Otherwise, the flight battery may be fully discharged
and is thus destroyed/unusable!
• The supplied charger may only be used with the enclosed LiPo battery. Never try to use it for charging different
rechargeable batteries (NiCd or NiMH)! There is a risk of fire and explosion! The charger is not suited for charging
rechargeable batteries in the remote control!
