7. Information on Batteries and Rechargeable Batteries
Although use of batteries and rechargeable batteries in everyday life is a matter of course today, there are
many dangers and problems.
Ensure that you observe the following general information and safety information when handling 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. If swallowed, consult 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 on contact; therefore, use
suitable protective gloves.
• Do not recharge normal batteries. There is a risk of fire and explosion! Only charge rechargeable batteries (1.2 V)
intended for this purpose. Use suitable battery chargers. Batteries (1.5 V) are intended for one-time use only and
must be disposed of properly when discharged.
• Always observe the correct polarity when inserting batteries or connecting the charger (observe plus/+ and minus/-).
Incorrect polarity will damage not only the transmitter but also the plane model and the batteries. There is a danger
of fire and explosion.
• Always replace the whole set of batteries. Do not mix full batteries with half-full ones. Always use batteries/rechar
-
geable batteries of the same type and manufacturer.
• Never mix batteries and rechargeable batteries! Therefore, only use batteries for the remote control transmitter.
• If the device is not used for an extended period of time (e.g. storage), remove the inserted batteries from the remote
control to avoid damage from leaking batteries.
Attention!
After the flight, disconnect the flight battery from the quadrocopter. Do not leave the rechargeable flight
battery connected to the quadrocopter if the model is not used (e.g. during transport or storage). Otherwise,
the flight battery may be fully discharged and is thus destroyed/unusable!
• Never charge the flight battery right after use. Always let the flight battery to cool down until it has reached room or
ambient temperature again.
• Only charge intact and undamaged flight batteries. If the outer isolation of the rechargeable battery is damaged or
the battery is deformed or bloated, it must not be charged. There is acute danger of fire or explosion!
• Never damage the outer shell of the flight battery, do not cut the foil cover, do not puncture the flight battery with
pointed objects. There is a risk of fire and explosion!
• Remove the flight battery from the model for recharging. Never recharge the flight rechargeable battery unatten

ded.
• Disconnect the flight battery from the charging cable when it is charged completely.
