7. Battery and Rechargeable Battery Notes
Although use of batteries and rechargeable batteries in everyday life is a matter of course today,
there are many dangers and problems. Therefore, always observe the following information and
safety notes in handling of batteries and rechargeable 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 re. There
is a danger of explosion!
• Leaking or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries can cause chemical burns to skin on contact;
therefore, use suitable protective gloves.
• Liquids leaking from batteries/rechargeable batteries are chemically highly aggressive. Objects or sur-
faces that come into contact with them may take severe damage. Therefore, keep batteries/recharge-
able batteries in a suitable location.
• Do not recharge normal batteries. There is a risk of re and explosion! Charge only rechargeable batter-
ies intended for this; use suitable chargers.
• Always observe correct polarity (positive/+ and negative/-) when inserting the batteries/rechargeable
batteries.
• If the device is not used for an extended period of time (e.g. storage), remove the inserted batteries/
rechargeable batteries from the remote control and the car to avoid damage from leaking batteries/
rechargeable batteries.
• Recharge the rechargeable batteries about every 3 months. Otherwise, so-called deep discharge may
result, rendering the rechargeable batteries useless.
• Before using your model, always check the battery or rechargeable battery condition. Replace the at/
used batteries with new ones or recharge the rechargeable batteries completely.
• Always replace the entire set of batteries or rechargeable batteries. Never mix fully charged batteries/
rechargeable batteries with partially discharged ones. Always use batteries or rechargeable batteries of
the same type and manufacturer.
• Never mix batteries and rechargeable batteries!
• For reasons of operational safety, only use batteries and rechargeable batteries for the remote control
transmitter.
