Warning!
A remote-controlled helicopter is NOT A TOY and is only suitable for teenagers
over the age of 14!
This product is not intended for use by children without supervision of a parent.
Inappropriate use may result in severe injuries and/or damage to property.
It has to be operated with care and caution and requires both mechanical and mental
skills. The operating instructions contain notes on safety and technical regulations as well
as information on maintaining and operating the product. It is indispensable to read these
instructions thoroughly before the first usage. Only this helps to avoid accidents with inju-
ries and damage.
Only use the helicopter in closed rooms which provide sufficient space and follow all
instructions given in this manual. Make sure that no lose objects, including clothes, or
other objects like pens or screwdrivers can become entangled in the rotor blades or can
get in contact with them. Especially take care that your hands DO NOT get close to the
rotor blades!
As user of this product you are solely responsible for handling it safely in order to ensure
that neither you nor other persons or their property suffer damages or are endangered.
This model is controlled via a radio signal which might be disturbed by various sources
from outside. These interferences can cause a short loss of control. Therefore it is advis-
able to always keep a safe distance to the model in order to avoid damage to property or
injuries.
• Never use your model with weak remote control batteries.
• Avoid busy areas. Always make sure that there is enough space.
• Preferably do not use your model on an open street or in public areas in order not to
endanger or hurt anyone.
• Exactly observe the instructions and warnings for this product and for any possible
additional equipment (battery charger, rechargeable batteries etc.) being used by you.
• Should the helicopter come into contact with any living thing or solid object,
immediately return the gas control to zero, in other words the left-hand joystick
must be at the stop at the bottom of the slide!
• Make sure that all chemicals, small parts and electrical components are out of child-
rens´ reach.
• Avoid any moisture as this might do damage to the electronics.
• There is a risk to suffer severe injury or even death if you put parts of your model into
your mouth or lick them.
Caution! Before you first fly the model, find out whether there is a legal requirement
to insure model aeroplanes such as this in your country.
for example from your insurance company whether your new and any previous model
aeroplanes are included in your third-party insurance. Have this confirmed in writing and
keep the correspondence in a safe place. It may be necessary for you to take out a special
insurance policy to cover model aircraft.
Important information concerning Lithium-Ion rechargeable batteries
Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) rechargeable batteries are significantly more sensitive than traditional
alkaline, or NiMH-rechargeable batteries normally used with radio controlled models.
Therefore the instructions and warnings have to be observed in detail. In case of improper
use of Lithium-Ion rechargeable batteries there is a danger of fire. Always follow the manu-
facturers´ instructions if you dispose of Lithium-Ion rechargeable batteries.
Regulations on disposal for waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE)
This symbol, showing refuse bins with a cross through them, denotes that empty batter-
ies, rechargeable batteries, button cells, rechargeable battery packs, equipment batter-
ies, disused electrical equipment, etc. should not be disposed of in domestic refuse, as
they are harmful to the environment and health.
Please help to preserve environment and health
and talk to your children about the correct dis-
posal of used batteries and disused electrical
equipment. Batteries and disused electrical
equipment should be handed in to the usual collection points where they can be properly
recycled.
Do not mix dissimilar battery types or employ new and used batteries together.
Empty batteries should be removed from the product. Do not attempt to recharge non-
rechargeable batteries. Rechargeable batteries should only be charged under adult
super vision. Exhausted batteries are to be removed from the toy. Rechargeable batteries
should be removed from the product before charging. Supply terminal are not to be short-
circuited. Only use the batteries recommended or equivalent types.
If in regular use the charger must be examined for damage to the cord, plug, covers and
all other parts. If any signs of damage are found the charger may only be used again after
repair work has been completed.
Guidelines and warnings for the use of Li-ion rechargeable batteries
Although the 8.4 V
Carrera RC helicopter has been developed especially for safe charging of the 7.4 V
650 mAh Lithium-Ion battery, you have to read the following safety regulations and warn-
ings before using or charging the Li-ion rechargeable battery.
Note: Li-ion rechargeable batteries are significantly more sensitive than traditional
alkaline, or NiMH-rechargeable batteries normally used with radio controlled models.
Therefore all instructions and warnings have to be observed precisely. In case of improper
use of Li-ion rechargeable batteries there is a danger of fire. When handling, charging or
using the attached Li-ion rechargeable battery you assume all and any risks connected
with Lithium rechargeable batteries. If you do not agree to these terms please immedi-
ately return the complete helicopter model in new and unused condition to the retailer.
• You have to charge the attached 7,4 V
safe place and at a safe distance to flammable material.
• Never leave the battery unguarded when charging it. When charging the battery you
should always be nearby in order to control the charging process and to be able to react to
potential problems.
• After a flight, the rechargeable battery has to cool down to the ambient air temperature
before charging it.
• You may only use the appropriate Li-ion battery charger. 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.
• Store the rechargeable battery at ambient temperature in a dry place.
• Always recharge the battery immediately after use to prevent its becoming deep
discharged. Please make sure to allow a pause of about 20 minutes between finish-
ing the flight and recharging the battery. Recharge the battery occasionally (sug-
gested every 2-3 months). Failure to treat the battery as described above can lead
to its becoming defective.
• When transporting or temporarily storing the rechargeable battery the temperature
should be between 5-50°C. If possible, do not store the battery or the model in a car and
do not expose it to direct sunlight. In case the battery is broiled it can be damaged or catch
fire.
• Do not discharge the Li-ion battery beyond a certain level. If the battery is unloaded too
deep the battery´s output as well as its durability will decrease which can finally lead to a
total breakdown. Li-ion cells should not be discharged beyond 6 V when being used. The
Information can be obtained
Li-ion battery in the Carrera RC helicopter must not fall beyond 6 V voltage during the
flight. The helicopter´s control unit is equipped with a protection system (LVC) which is
activated in case the voltage drops to under 6 V. With this cut-off being activated the con-
trol unit is going to reduce the engines´ performance in order to avoid a voltage drop to
under 6 V. Should you notice a reduction in performance you should land the helicopter at
once and switch off the model as further discharging below 6 V will damage the Li-ion
battery permanently. This results in a reduction in the battery´s output and durability for
any following flights or in a total breakdown. In addition, repeated attempts to discharge
the rechargeable battery furthermore may lead to the control system´s breakdown
although the engines are still running. The minimum voltage required for the receiver or
other pieces of electronics is no longer reached then. It is not advisable to max the
rechargeable battery to 6 V on each flight. Instead, you should keep an eye on the
battery´s/helicopter´s charge condition during the flight. Should you notice that the heli-
copter requires stronger controlling than normally when hovering or flying you should land
your model immediately. Nevertheless, frequent discharging of the rechargeable battery
down to 6 V can damage it permanently.
Note: If the battery voltage/output is low you will recognise that a considerable trim and/or
controlling is necessary to avoid that the helicopter starts trundling. This usually occurs
before reaching a battery voltage of 6 V and it is a good moment to end the flight.
