USER MANUAL
INTEL® FALCON™ 8+ UAS
• LiPo batteries are volatile. Failure to read and follow the below instructions may
result in fire, personal injury and damage to property if charged or used
improperly.
• The battery charging/discharging and storage area should be free from any
materials which can catch fire such as: wood tables, carpet, or gasoline
containers. The ideal surface for charging and storing LiPo batteries is metal,
concrete or ceramic.
• Extinguishing Media: Water, CO2.
• Special Fire-Fighting Procedures: Self-contained breathing apparatus.
• Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Cell may vent when subjected to excessive
heat-exposing battery contents.
• Hazardous Combustion Products: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, lithium
oxide fumes.
• By purchasing this battery, the customer assumes all risks associated with
lithium batteries. If you do not agree with these conditions, return the battery
immediately before use.
General Guidelines and Warnings
• It is crucial that all cells in a LiPo battery maintain the same voltage across all
cells at all times.
• Never charge batteries unattended. When charging LiPo batteries, you should
always remain nearby to monitor the charging process and react to potential
problems that may occur.
• Never continue to charge LiPo batteries if the battery LEDs fail to recognize full
charge. Overheating of the LiPo cells indicates a problem. In the event of
overheating, the battery should be immediately disconnected from the power
supply and placed in a fireproof location.
• Since delayed chemical reaction can occur, it is best to monitor the battery as a
safety precaution. Battery monitoring should occur in a safe area outside of any
building or vehicle, and away from any combustible material. Always charge LiPo
batteries in a fireproof location.
• A battery can ignite even after the charging process has been completed.
• In the event of a crash, you must remove the battery for observation and place it
in a safe open area away from any combustible material for an appropriate
period.
• Never store or charge a battery inside of your car in extreme temperatures, since
extreme temperature could cause a fire.
