IMPORTANT WARNINGS REGARDING LIPO BATTERY USE
NEVER ATTEMPT TO CARE FOR LITHIUM-POLYMER (LiPo) CELLS
IN THE SAME WAY AS OTHER BATTERY TYPES!
LiPo cells are much
more sensitive and volatile than NiCd or NiMH batteries. Misuse and
overcharge can quickly result in LiPo cells getting hot and/or swelling,
which could lead to
VIOLENT EXPLOSION AND/OR FIRE
and serious personal
injury and property damage.
●
NEVER
attempt to recharge other battery types except 1S LiPo cells with this
built-in charger.
●
NEVER
continue to charge or use LiPo cells if they start to swell, and become
overly warm to the touch. Failure to follow this guideline could cause the battery
to become hot and explode or ignite!!
●
ALWAYS
disconnect the battery from the charger immediately if the battery
becomes hot! Allow the battery to cool before use.
●
NEVER
allow water, moisture or foreign objects into the Tx/charger.
●
NEVER
leave the room where a battery is being charged.
●
NEVER
place the Tx/charger or battery on a fl ammable surface or near a
fl ammable object during the charge process. Keep away from carpets, cluttered
workbenches, etc.
●
ALWAYS
have a “class D” fi re extinguisher available when handling LiPo batteries.
●
If a LiPo cell leaks fl uid, do not get fl uid on the skin, in the eyes or mouth, etc. If
you make contact with fl uid from a LiPo battery, rinse the affected area well with
water and seek immediate medical care.
LINK THE RECEIVER TO THE TRANSMITTER
This link ensures sole communication between this Tx and the receiver, and
prevents other transmitters from controlling the model. If it’s necessary to re-link the
receiver to the transmitter:
1.
Switch on the Tx.
2.
Connect the battery to the Rx. See SERVOS AND ACCESSORIES on page
12 for recommendations.
3.
The Rx LED on the Rx will turn on, indicating the Rx is bound to the Tx. On
some receivers, you will have to push and hold the link button for 3 seconds.
4.
Test for proper Tx / Rx functionality in the next section. If the system did not
become properly linked, repeat steps 1-3 above.
