• regularlyinspecttheelectronicsorrechargeablebatteries,
charger, connection plugs, cables, housings and other parts for
damage.
Never subject the transmitter, the
rechargeable batteries and the model to
adverse ambient conditions!
These are, for instance:
• Wetness,too-highhumidity(>75%rel.,condensing).Donot
touch the battery charger with wet hands.
• Neveroperatethemodelrightafterithasbeenbroughtfrom
cold into warm surroundings. The resulting condensation can
destroy the device. Permit the device to attain the ambient
temperature while unconnected.
• Dustandflammablegases,vapoursorsolvents,benzenes
• Too-highambienttemperatures(>about+40°C),direct
sunlight
• Openfire,ignitionsources
• Mechanicalstresssuchasshock,vibration
• Strongcontamination
• Strongelectromagneticfields(motorsortransformers)or
electrostatic fields (charges)
• Transmitters(radiotelephones,transmittersformodel
building, etc.). Transmitter emission can lead to the
malfunction of charging or to destruction of the battery
charger and thereby also of the rechargeable battery.
Permit the battery charger to cool down
between charging operations. Disconnect
the battery charger from the mains when
charging is completed.
A defective battery charger must no longer be opeated. If it is
assumed that the device is defective, i.e. if
• Thedeviceshowsvisibledamage,
• Thedevicenolongerworksand
• Afterlongerstorageunderunfavourableconditionsor
• Afterseveretransportationstress,itmustbeswitchedoff
without delay and secured against unintentional operation.
Dispose of the unusable (irreparable) battery charger according to
the applicable statutory regulations.
For safety and registration reasons (CE), the unauthorised
conversion and/or modification of the battery charger is not
permitted.
Lithium-polymer battery
Use the enclosed rechargeable battery for this model only.
Only use a genuine part as a replacement battery.
• Donotoverchargeordeep-dischargethebattery!Bothcan
cause electrolyte to leak and lead to self-ignition.
• Nevermixfullychargedrechargeablebatteries/batterieswith
half-charged ones or rechargeable batteries with different
capacities.
• ChargetheLiPobatteryatleasteverysixmonthsinorderto
avoid deep discharge.
• Removethechargedbatteryfromthebatterychargerinorder
to avoid self-discharge.
Defective rechargeable batteries/rechargeable batteries that can
no longer be charged must be disposed of as hazardous waste
(collection points). Disposal in the household waste is forbidden!
The batteries must not
• Beimmersedinliquid,
• Bethrowninthefireorsubjectedtohightemperaturesor

f you notice any smell, discolouration, excessive heating, defor-
mation or other abnormalities while using, charging or storing the
rechargeable battery:
• Disconnecttherechargeablebatteryfromthebatterycharger
• Disconnecttherechargeablebatteryfromtheconsumer
• Nolongerusetherechargeablebattery.
If electrolyte leaks:
• Avoidcontactwitheyesandskin!
