7. Battery and Rechargeable Battery Notes
a) General
Although use of batteries and rechargeable batteries in everyday life is a matter of course today, there are
many dangers and problems. In particular in LiPo batteries with high energy content (as compared to con-
ventional NiMH batteries), various provisions must be complied with to avoid danger of explosion and fire.
Therefore, always observe the following information and safety notes in handling of batteries and recharge-
able 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. Wear suitable protective
gloves when handling them.
• Liquids leaking from batteries/rechargeable batteries are chemically highly aggressive. Objects or surfaces that
come into contact with them may take severe damage. Therefore, keep batteries/rechargeable batteries in a suit-
able location.
• Never recharge normal (non-rechargeable) batteries. There is a risk of fire and explosion! Charge only rechargeable
batteries intended for this; use suitable chargers.
• A battery charger corresponding to battery technology (NiMH, LiPo....) is required. Never leave, e.g., LiPo batteries
unattended in an NiMH charger! There is a risk of fire and explosion!
• A suitable balancer is required for charging multi-cell LiPo batteries (usually integrated in good LiPo chargers). A
balancer (frequently also referred to as an equalizer) prevents overcharging of a single LiPo cell by inspection of the
individual cell voltages.
When overcharging a LiPo cell (max. cell voltage 4.24 V), the LiPo battery may bloat or even catch fire or explode!
• Only charge intact and undamaged batteries. If the outer isolation of the rechargeable battery or battery housing is
damaged or the battery is deformed or bloated, it must not be charged. In this case, there is immediate danger of
fire and explosion!
• Never charge the battery right after use. Always leave the rechargeable batteries to cool off first (at least 5 - 10
minutes).
• Never place the charger and rechargeable battery on a heat-resistant, inflammable surface.
• Charger and rechargeable batteries heat up when charging. Leave enough distance between the charger and the
rechargeable battery, never place the rechargeable battery on the charger. Never cover the charger and the battery.
Do not expose the charger and rechargeable battery to any high/low temperatures or to direct solar radiation.
• Never charge rechargeable batteries unattended.
• Regularly recharge the rechargeable batteries (about every 2 - 3 months). Otherwise, self-discharge of the batteries
may cause deep discharge. This renders the rechargeable batteries useless!
NiMH batteries (except for specific builds with low self-discharge) lose their energy even within a few weeks.
