Battery Warnings and Guidelines

While the 1S 3.7V DC Lithium Polymer Battery Charger (EFLC1103) 

included with your Blade mCX S300 has been specifically designed to 

safely charge the included 1S 3.7V 110mAh Lithium Polymer Battery 

(EFLB1101S), you MUST read the following safety instructions and warnings 

before handling, charging or using the Li-Po battery.

Note: Lithium Polymer batteries are significantly more 

volatile than the alkaline, Ni-Cd or Ni-MH batteries used in RC 

applications. All instructions and warnings must be followed 

exactly. Mishandling of Li-Po batteries can result in fire.

By handling, charging or using the included Li-Po battery you assume 

all risks associated with lithium batteries. If you do not agree with these 

conditions, return your complete Blade mCX S300 model in new, unused 

condition to the place of purchase immediately.

•  You must charge the included 1S 3.7V 110mAh Li-Po battery in a safe area away 

from flammable materials.

•  Never charge the battery unattended. When charging the battery you should always 

remain in constant observation to monitor the charging process and react to 

potential problems that may occur.

• After flight, the battery must be cooled to ambient temperature before charging.

  You MUST use the included 1S 3.7V DC Li-Po Charger (EFLC1003) ONLY. 

Failure to do so may result in a fire causing personal injury and/or 

property damage. DO NOT use a Ni-Cd or Ni-MH charger.

•  If at any time during the charge or discharge process the 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.
