or a suitably compatible LiPo battery charger. Failure to do so may
result in a fire causing property damage and/or serious injury.
If at any time the LiPo battery begins to balloon or swell, discontinue
charging or discharging immediately. Quickly and safely disconnect
the battery, then place it in a safe, open area away from flammable
materials to observe it for at least 15 minutes. Continuing to charge
or discharge a battery that has begun to balloon or swell can result
in a fire. A battery that has ballooned or swollen even a small
amount must be removed from service completely.
Do not over-discharge the LiPo battery. Discharging the battery too
low can cause damage to the battery resulting in reduced power,
flight duration or failure of the battery entirely. LiPo cells should not
be discharged to below 3.0V each under load.
Store the LiPo battery at room temperature and in a dry area for best
results.
When charging, transporting or temporarily storing the LiPo battery
the temperature range should be from approximately 40–120° F
(5–49° C). Do not store the battery or aircraft in a hot garage, car or
direct sunlight. If stored in a hot garage or car the battery can be
damaged or even catch fire.
Never leave batteries, chargers and power supplies unattended
during use.
Never attempt to charge low voltage, ballooned/swollen, damaged
or wet batteries.
Never allow children under 14 years of age to charge batteries.
Never charge a battery if any of the wire leads have been damaged
or shorted.
Never attempt to disassemble the battery, charger or power supply.
Never drop batteries, chargers or power supplies.
Always inspect the battery, charger and power supply before
charging.
Always ensure correct polarity before connecting batteries, chargers
and power supplies.
Always disconnect the battery after charging.
Always terminate all processes if the battery, charger or power
supply malfunctions.
