Battery Replacement Method
1
Remove the battery cover from the transmitter by
sliding it in the direction of the arrow in the figure.
2
Remove the used batteries.
Caution
If you remove the dry cell battery box from the transmit-
ter, replace it carefully with the wiring on the same side
as before. Reinstalling the battery box in the opposite
direction could cause the wires to be disconnected.
3
Load the new AA size batteries. Pay very close
attention to the polarity markings and reinsert ac-
cordingly.
4
Slide the battery cover back onto the case.
Disposal of the Dry Cell Batteries:
The method to dispose of used dry cell batteries depends on the area in which you reside. Dispose of
the batteries in accordance with the regulations for your area.
Caution
When running (cruising), do not use the dry cell battery box at the transmitter.
The accessory dry cell battery box is for performance checks. Do not use it for other than performance checks. The dry
cell batteries will be separated from the battery box contacts by shock and the power may be cut off. There is the dan-
ger of collision if the power is cut while running (cruising). The use of Futaba genuine NiMH/LiFe or LiPo batteries is
strongly recommended.
Low Battery Alarm
If the transmitter battery voltage drops below the usable range, an audible alarm will
sound and " Low battery " will be displayed. Since the usable range of NiMH/LiFe
batteries and LiPo batteries is different, the power supply used must be set by system
setting. If the battery goes dead while running (cruising), since there is the danger of
collision, immediately recover the vehicle (boat) and stop running (cruising).
Warning
When a low battery alarm is generated, cease operation immediately and retrieve the model.
If the battery goes dead while in operation, you will lose control of the model.
