b) Flight operation
• A rotor is a very fast rotating blade in operation. Avoid contact as this can lead to injury or damage.
Observe a sufficient distance.
• Do not fly without visual contact with the drone.
• For models with camera: Use radio connection to the drone only within enclosed spaces with which you
are familiar and in which there are no animals or people.
• Land only on stable surfaces free of materials, threads, cables, etc. These objects could get into the
rotors.
• Keep away from water surfaces and strong air currents with the model.
• Switch the remote control off after the flight and disconnect the flight battery from the drone.
• When switched on, the drone emits very bright light signals. Do not look directly into the light sources, or
look at the light sources from a close distance.
• Users must check whether the radio frequency of 2.4 GHz is affecting other wireless devices in the vicin-
ity, or if the drone is affecting the frequency.
c) Batteries
• Do not leave batteries lying around, as they present a choking hazard for children and pets. Seek im-
mediate medical attention if a battery is swallowed. Danger of death!
• Leaking or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries can cause burns if they come into contact with the
skin. Always use protective gloves when handling leaking or damaged batteries.
• Check that the batteries are inserted with the correct polarity.
• Batteries must never be short-circuited, disassembled or thrown into fire. Risk of explosion!
• Do not recharge disposable, non-rechargeable batteries. Risk of explosion!
• In the case of disuse for a longer period of time, remove the inserted batteries/rechargeable batteries.
As batteries age, there is a risk of them leaking. This can cause damage to the product. This will void
the warranty/guarantee.
• Never mix disposable batteries with rechargeable batteries. Use either disposable batteries or recharge-
able batteries.
• Use only original flight batteries with corresponding approval.
• If, during the charging process, a battery becomes unusually warm (typically 0 - 40 °C), disconnect it from
the charger, allow it to cool down and observe the process carefully. Dispose of the battery, if necessary.
This is especially true in the case of swollen batteries.
• Do not interrupt a charging cycle prematurely. Do not charge the battery several times without discharg-
ing it.
• To store a LiPo battery, keep the charge capacity between 20 and 80 % of the maximum capacity.
• There is an elevated risk of fire with LiPo batteries. Please be aware that this applies to all product cycles
(charging, flying, storage).
• For the environmentally friendly disposal of batteries/rechargeable batteries, please read the chapter
“Disposal”.
