GENERAL GUIDELINE AND WARNING
Use specific Lithium Polymer/Li-ion charger from CipherLab only. Failure to do so may cause

fire, which may result in personal injury and property damage.
Never charge batteries unattended. When charging Lithium Polymer/Li-ion batteries, always

remain vigilant and observe the charging process continuously to monitor for potential
problems and react promptly if any issues arise.
Some Polymer/Li-ion chargers on the market may have technical deficiencies that could lead

to incorrect charging or charging at an improper rate for LiPo/Li-ion batteries. Ensure that
the charger you have purchased is functioning properly and always monitor the charging
process to ensure that the batteries are being charged correctly. Failure to do so may result
in a fire.
If at any time you notice a battery starting to balloon, swell up, smoke, or become hot, cease

using the battery immediately and contact your dealer without delay.
If you accidentally short the battery polarity, place the battery in a safe area for observation

for approximately 15 minutes. Additionally, if a short occurs and contact is made with metal
(such as rings on your hand), severe injuries may occur due to the conductivity of electric
current.
In the event of a crash due to poor shipment or other reasons, you must remove the

damaged battery for observation and replace the damaged batteries with new ones from
other undamaged batteries.
Never drop the batteries.

Do NOT expose the battery to water.

Do NOT attempt to disassemble battery.

It is recommended to place the battery in an enclosure to protect it from damage by liquid or

dropping from height accidentally.
