7. Battery information
Batteries present numerous safety hazards.
Therefore, always observe the following general information and safety instructions when handling
non-rechargeable and rechargeable batteries.
•
Keep batteries out of the reach of children.
•
Do not leave batteries lying around, as they present a choking hazard for children and pets. Seek im-
mediate medical advice if a battery is swallowed.
• Batteries/rechargeable batteries must never be short-circuited, taken apart or thrown into fire. This may
cause an explosion!
•
When handling leaking or damaged batteries, always use suitable protective gloves to avoid burning
your skin.
• Do not attempt to recharge disposable, non-rechargeable batteries. This may cause a fire or explosion!
Only charge rechargeable batteries which are intended for this purpose (1.2 V); use suitable battery
chargers. Non-rechargeable batteries (1.5 V) are designed to be used once and must be disposed of
properly when they are empty.
•
Always ensure that the batteries are inserted and connected to the charger in the correct polarity (ob-
serve the plus/+ and minus/- symbols). Inserting the batteries in the wrong polarity may damage the
remote control, the helicopter and the batteries. It may also cause a fire or explosion.
•
Always exchange the entire set of batteries. Do not mix full batteries with half-full batteries. Always use
batteries of the same type and from the same manufacturer.
•
Never mix non-rechargeable batteries with rechargeable batteries. Always use disposable batteries to
power the remote control.
•
If you do not plan to use the model for an extended period (e.g. during storage), remove the batteries
from the remote control to prevent them from leaking and causing damage.
• Disconnect the quadrocopter rechargeable battery from the quadrocopter after a flight and remove the
quadrocopter rechargeable battery from the quadrocopter. Do not leave the quadrocopter rechargeable
battery connected to the quadrocopter when you are not using the model (e.g. during transport or stor-
age). Otherwise, this may cause deep discharge or permanent damage to the quadrocopter recharge-
able battery.
•
Never charge the quadrocopter rechargeable battery immediately after use. Always allow the quadro-
copter rechargeable battery to cool down until it has reached room or ambient temperature again.
•
Charge intact and undamaged quadrocopter rechargeable batteries only. Do not charge the recharge-
able battery if the external insulation of the rechargeable battery is damaged, or if the rechargeable
battery is deformed or swollen. This may cause a fire or explosion!
• Never damage the external casing of the quadrocopter rechargeable battery. Do not tear the film cover
or prick the quadrocopter rechargeable battery with sharp objects. This may cause a fire or explosion!
•
Never charge the quadrocopter rechargeable battery when the product is unattended.
•
Disconnect the quadrocopter rechargeable battery from the charging cable when the battery is fully
charged.
