To avoid collisions in the air or on the ground, keep your Karma within visual line of sight
EN
at all times during flight. Do not fly over unprotected people, sensitive infrastructure, or
moving vehicles. While flying, maintain a safe distance between your Karma and power
lines, trees, airports, buildings,
and any other potentially dangerous or hazardous objects or areas.
Do not attempt to touch or catch your Karma during flight. The propellers on your Karma
have sharp edges and if touched while spinning could cause significant injur y.
Always fly your Karma with a fully charged battery and with a fully charged Karma
controller.
Battery, Charger, and Battery Care
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose your Karma to rain
or moisture. As with any electronic products, use care not to spill liquids into
any part of the system. Liquids can cause failure and/or a fire hazard.
WARNING: Handle and store batteries properly to avoid injury or
damage. Most battery issues arise from improper handling of batteries and,
particularly, from the continued use of damaged batteries.
Instructions for removing the battery from your Karma are available in the Karma user
manual. Do not attempt to remove the battery on your Karma controller as it could lead
to injur y or exposure to shock.
Do not drop, disassemble, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, shred, microwave,
incinerate, or paint your Karma battery or Karma controller. Do not insert foreign objects
into the battery bay on your Karma.
Do not use your Karma or any GoPro product containing a battery if the product
has been damaged—for example, if cracked, punctured, or in contact with liquids.
Disassembling, damaging, or puncturing the battery can cause an explosion or fire.
Battery fluid can cause serious burns to the skin and eyes. In the unlikely event that
battery fluid leaks onto your skin, wash the affected area with plenty of water and
seek medical advice immediately.
Do not expose your Karma or battery to excessive heat, including direct sunlight or fire,
and storage or use inside cars in hot weather, where it can be exposed to temperatures
in excess of 140°F (60°C). Doing so may cause the battery to generate heat, rupture, or
ignite. Using your Karma battery in this manner also may result in a loss of performance
and a shortened life expectancy.
If the battery is damaged and ignites, do not use water to extinguish flames. Instead, use
a functioning fire extinguisher. Do not short-circuit batteries. Avoid storing them around
metal objects such as keys, pocket change, paper clips, and jewelr y.
The battery charger must be used indoors only. It is neither designed nor tested for use
outdoors, in recreation vehicles, or on boats. Make no modifications to the battery
charger. Unauthorized alterations may compromise safety, regulatory compliance, and
battery charger performance, and may void the warranty. Do not drop the batter y
charger or batteries.
The battery is intended to be charged only with the battery charger provided with your
Karma. Refer to the charging instructions in the Karma user manual. Do not continue
charging the battery if it does not reach full charge within two hours. Overcharging may
cause the battery to become hot, rupture, or ignite. If you see any heat deformation or
leakage, properly dispose of the battery.
Do not charge or connect a battery if the power cable has been pinched or shorted.
Always inspect the battery and charger before charging. Do not pierce, crush, dent, or
deform the battery or charger in any way. If either becomes deformed, properly dispose
of it.
Do not dry GoPro products that contain batteries with an external heat source such as a
conventional oven, microwave oven, or hair dr yer.
Do not attempt to use the Karma battery to power other electronics. Doing so may result
in permanent damage to your product and/or personal injur y.
