To charge the supplied lithium battery, use only the enclosed charger or equivalent and com-
patible chargers for lithium batteries.
Charging the lithium battery using a non-compatible charger (such as NiCd or NiMH rechar-
geable battery chargers) or other non-compatible chargers may damage the battery or cause
a fire, causing damage to property and/or personal injury.
Caution: Be sure to ensure proper polarization before connecting.
1. Connect the included balance charger to the AC power source. The charger is correctly
connected and ready for charging when the green LED light is lit.
2. Connect the white 4-pin connector of the battery to the appropriate jack on the charger.
Note that even if the white connector minimizes the risk of reversed polarity, it is still pos-
sible to create connenctions with incorrect polarity due to force or force effects, causing
damage to the battery or charger. If the connector are in the correct polarity, only a small
amount of pressure should be sufficient to get the click of the secure connection then
merging.
3. When the battery and charger are properly connected, both LED lights (red and green)
light up. As long as the red LED light is lit, the battery is charging.
4. It takes about 1.5 - 2.5 hours to recharge a nearly or completely discharged battery. When
the battery is fully charged, the red LED light will stop flashing. When this happens, you can
disconnect the battery from the charger as it is fully charged and ready to use.
Caution: Never store fully charged lithium batteries.
For increased safety and the longevity of the LiPo battery, it is best to store it only partially
charged. A voltage of approximately 50% (3.58V per cell) is best suited for storage, but it requi-
res careful management of charging time and the use of a voltmeter to achieve this voltage.
If you have the necessary equipment and the ability to achieve the 50% voltage for the sto-
rage, this absolutely recommended. Otherwise, if the battery is stored at room temperature
and for no more than a few weeks until the next use, it is advisable to store the battery com-
pletely discharged (as long as the battery has not been over-discharged during the last use.)
Never charge the battery unobserved. Dont store or charge the battery inside the boat.
