Charge the Air Hogs

®

Helix

TM

battery only with the provided Air Hogs

®

Lithium Polymer Charger.

Charging operation should be performed by adults only.

The Helix

TM

battery is only partially charged. Fully charge the Helix

TM

battery pack before its first flight.

Always fully charge the Helix

TM

battery pack in repeat use.

The supply terminals are not to be short-circuited.

Do not attempt to open the LiPo battery pack.

Stop using and do not recharge the LiPo battery pack if it shows 
leakage, damage or deformation.

Do not allow the Helix

TM

to get wet.

Always store the Helix

TM

in a cool and dry place.

Dispose of Helix

TM

properly and never dispose of it in fire.

Do not recharge the Helix

TM

battery pack immediately after use.

Wait until it is cool before charging.

Be sure the wall charger and Helix

TM

are kept out of the hands of

infants and small children.

• Do not charge near fire, where temperature is extremely high, or when

it is wet or damp.

• Do not continue to charge the Helix

TM

if the charger fails to recognize

full charge.

• Overheating or swelling of the LiPo cells is an indicator that they are in

an over charged condition and the batteries should be disconnected
from the charger immediately!!

• Do not allow the LiPo battery pack to overheat at any time. Cells which

reach greater than 140°F (60ºC) can and USUALLY WILL become
damaged physically and could possibly catch FIRE! Always inspect a
battery which has previously overheated for potential damage and DO
NOT reuse it if you suspect it has been damaged in any way.

• Do not allow LiPo batteries to be charged or discharged on or near

combustible materials, including paper, plastics, carpets, vinyl, leather,
wood, inside an R/V or full-sized automobile!

• Always provide adequate ventilation around LiPo batteries during

charge, discharge, while in use and during storage. If a battery
becomes overheated, remove it from the charger IMMEDIATELY and
place it in a fireproof location until it cools.

• Do not modify the Helix

TM

battery pack in any way which might result in

permanent damage or dangerous responses.

• Immediately remove a LiPo battery from a model if it is involved in a

crash in anyway. Do not use a LiPo battery if you suspect physical 
damage has occurred to the pack. Carefully inspect the battery for
even the smallest of dents, cracks, splits, punctures or damage. A LiPo
battery might not appear to be damaged after a crash, but it could
smolder over a short amount of time and suddenly catch fire 
unexpectedly, if in doubt, place the battery in a fire-proof location 
indefinitely.
