GB - Instructions for the use of Lithium Batteries

Important Notice

Read the manual and the safety precautions for the Lithium-

Polymer-Cells properly.

-   Litium-Polymer-Cells have no memory-effect

-   Lithium-Polymer-Cells are recharged with a constant voltage 

  and a constant power

-   Lithium-Polymer-Cells have a small self-discharging Voltage

Liability exclusion

Jamara e.K. is not liable for any damage caused to the pro-

duct itself or through this, provided this is due to improper 

operation or handling errors. The Customer alone bears the 

full responsibility for the proper use and handling, including 

without limitation, the assembly, the charging process, the 

use and choice of the operation area. Please refer to the ope-

rating and user instructions, it contains important informati-

on and warnings..

Lithium-Polymer-Cells may only be stored and recharged, on fire-

proof non-flamable grounds. Jamara e.K. recommends to rechar-

ge the cells only with the transmitter. When using an other charger 

or when using the permitted charger incorrect, no liability can be 

taken.  Because  of  their  enormous  power-compactivity  Lithium-

Polymer-Cells  are  flameable  when  damaged.  This  can  happen 

through extrem overcharging, a crash or a mechanical damage 

etc. Therefore, it is extremly important to supervise the recharging 

process. After a crash the cell/pack should be checked carefully. 

For example the cell/pack could have been damaged, but does not 

heat up before 30 minutes. So, in case of a damage at one pack or 

a cell always strictly supervise.

If the cell overheats, swells, burns or smoke is coming from 

it, do not touch it under any circumstances. Keep away in 

a safe distance and prepare adequate extinguishing agents 

such (No water explosion, well dry sand, fire extinguishers, 

fire blanket, salt water).

Safety precausions

Because of the high power  compactivity (up to 150 Wh/kg) the 

cells are quite dangerous and need  special care!  The company 

Jamara excludes explicitly, all types of liability for damages, that 

can occure when using the Lithium-Polymer-Cells indequate.

-   When using the battery incorrect there is a risk of getting fire- 

  or acid-injuries.

-   Overcharging, too high power, or discharging at low level 

  destroys the cell.

-   Protect from mechanical stress (squeezing, pushing, bending, 

    drilling).

-   Never open or cut open, do not throw into fire, keep away from 

 children.

-   Handle damaged or leaking battery with care. Injuries or 

  damages to the product can occure.

-   Under no circumstance short-circuit the device and always 

  watch out for correct polarity.

-   Protect batteries from heat above 65 °C , mount away from hot  

    objects (for example exhaust pipe).

-   Before storing batteries (for example in the winter) charge the 

    battery. Do not store in fully charged or in non charged state!

-   If stored over a longer period of time, observe the power level 

  occasionally.

-   The contents of the cell is harmfull for skin and eye.

-   If the content comes into contact with skin, clean with plenty of 

    water and take off moisted clothes.

-   If the content comes into contact with the eyes, clean with

    plenty of water and consult a doctor.

Technical data

Case: 

The case of the cells consists of an aluminium-plasticfoil. This foil 

should not be damaged under any circumstance, because this will 

lead to a damaged cell. Take care of sufficient protection (i.e. vib-

rations) in the model. If damaged, they might leak, avoid contact 

under all circumstances.

Overcharging:

If charging does not stop because of any damage to the charger 

the battery may catch fire. Therefore supervise the charging pro-

cess frequently. 

Speed charging:

Speed charging is not possible. The charging voltage for these 

cells must be followed.

Charging temperature:

0 to +45 degrees outside temperature. During charge, the battery 

should not get warmer than 70 °C. Supervise the charging process 

with help of the JAMARA Thermo Scan 300 ( Non-touch infrared 

thermometer)  Order No. 17 0133.

Discharging temperature:

-20° to +40°C:  

Flying in winter is therefore possible. 

At temperatures beneath 0 degrees, it 

is likely that the capacity may be 

reduced by approx. 20% and the 

discharge level may be smaller as well.

Lifetime:

Very user-dependent.

Storage:

The cells need to be between half full and full charged. The storing 

empty cells will lead to their destruction. New cells are therefore 

half full.
