6. Notes on Batteries and Rechargeable Batteries
• 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. In this case, see 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. Wear suitable protective
gloves when handling them.
• Never 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.
• Observe correct polarity when inserting batteries/rechargeable batteries or connecting a rechargeable drive battery
(observe plus/+ and minus/-).
• To avoid damage during damage from leaking batteries/rechargeable batteries, remove the batteries (or rechargeable
batteries) from the transmitter when the device is not used over a period of time (e.g. when stored). Disconnect the
drive battery from the speed controller completely.
Recharge the rechargeable batteries about every 3 months. Otherwise, so-called deep discharge may result, rendering
the rechargeable batteries useless.
• Always replace the entire set of batteries or rechargeable batteries in the transmitter. Never mix fully charged batteries/
rechargeable batteries with partially discharged ones. Always use batteries or rechargeable batteries of the same
type and manufacturer.
• Never mix batteries and rechargeable batteries!
• When using LiPo batteries in the vehicle, always observe the manufacturer’s information on handling or charging
LiPo batteries.
