Before carrying the Intelligent Flight Battery onto an airplane, the battery must rst be discharged to below
30%. Only discharge the battery in a reproof location. (Please verify with IATA or FAA prior to your ight if
any changes in regulation)
BATTERY USE
Make sure the batteries are fully charged before each ight.
Land the aircraft immediately when low battery level signals are activated.
BATTERY CHARGING
The Intelligent Flight Battery is designed to stop charging when it is full. However it is a good practice to
monitor the charging progress and disconnect the batteries when fully charged.
Ensure the Intelligent Flight Battery is turned off at all times during charging.
BATTERY STORAGE
Discharge the battery to 40%-65% if it will NOT be used for 10 days or more. This can greatly extend the
battery life.
The battery automatically discharges to below 65% when it is idle for more than 10 days to prevent it from
swelling. It takes approximately 3 days to discharge the battery to 65%. It is normal that you may feel
moderate heat emitting from the battery during the discharge process.
DO NOT store the battery for an extended period after fully discharging it. Doing so may over-discharge the
battery and cause irreparable battery cell damage.
The battery will enter hibernation mode if depleted and stored for a long period.
Recharge the battery to bring it out of hibernation.
Remove batteries from the aircraft when stored for an extended period.
BATTERY DISPOSAL
If the power on/off button on the Intelligent Flight Battery is disabled and the battery cannot be fully
discharged, please contact a professional battery disposal/recycling agent for further assistance.
BATTERY MAINTENANCE
Never over-discharge, as this may lead to battery cell damage.
Battery life may be reduced if not used for a long time.
Fully charge and discharge the battery at least once every 3 months to maintain battery health.
TRAVEL NOTICE
Store Intelligent Flight Batteries in a ventilated location.
