FURTHER SAFETY GUIDELINES

Only operate Piston Tanks when switch unit is completely connected. Otherwise Piston Tanks will inevitably be damaged, resulting in total failure of
the system.

Take care when charging batteries! 

Batteries which indicate to be sealed can also release gas even if handled  and charged correctly (for example: too high a
charging current, or excessive charge time, or unsuitable charger in use). Batteries have a security valve to release any pos-
sible internal over-pressure. The gas produced is highly explosive and has an enormous destructive power.

For safety reasons batteries MUST NEVER be charged within a sealed compartment!

The charger and the battery should be in an open well-ventilated space. Therefore, ALL batteries must be removed from the
hull during the charging period. Even so-called "sealed" batteries allow a build-up of hydrogen gas while being charged which
in turn can cause a serious EXPLOSION, tearing the model into pieces and endangering its immediate environment.

Installation of charging sockets in either the hull or pressure proof compartment will result in the GUARANTEE being NULL
and VOID!
