and rechargeable batteries
• Keep batteries/rechargeable batteries out of 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 care!
• Batteries/rechargeable batteries must never be short-circuited, taken apart or thrown into fire.
They might explode!
• Leaking or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries may cause acid burns when coming into
contact with skin, therefore use suitable protective gloves.
• Conventional batteries must not be re-charged. Danger 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), remove the inserted batteries (or
rechargeable batteries) from the remote control to avoid damage from leaking batteries/
rechargeable batteries.
• Recharge the rechargeable battery about every 3 months, as otherwise, there may a so called deep
discharge due to the self-discharge, which can make 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 and manufacturer.
• Never mix batteries and storage batteries! Either use batteries or rechargeable batteries for the
remote control transmitter.
It is possible to operate the remote control (transmitter) with rechargeable batteries
instead of standard batteries.
However, the low voltage (batteries=1.5 V/cell, rechargeable batteries=1.2 V/cell) 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 model airplane.
If you use batteries in the remote control, we recommend the use of high-quality alkaline
batteries.
When using rechargeable batteries there can be a decrease in range.
