Important information concerning
Lithium Polymer rechargeable batteries
Lithium-Polymer (LiPo) rechargeable
batteries are significantly more sensitive
than traditional alkali- or NiMH-recharge-
able batteries which are normally used
with radio control units. Therefore the
instructions and warnings have to be ob-
served in detail. In case of improper use
of LiPo rechargeable batteries there is a
danger of fire. Always follow the manu-
facturers´ instructions if you dispose of
LiPo rechargeable batteries.
Guidelines and warnings for the use
of LiPo rechargeable batteries
•
You have to charge the attached 3.7 V
250 mAh / 0.925 Wh
LiPo rechargeable
battery in a safe place and at a safe dis-
tance to flammable material.
• Never leave the battery unattended
while it is charging
• After use, the rechargeable battery has
to cool down to the ambient air tempera-
ture before charging it.
• You must always use the corresponding
LiPo charging unit (USB cable). In case
of non-compliance with these directions
there is a danger of fire resulting in a
health risk and/or damage to property.
NEVER use any other battery charger.
