AIRCRAFT.
Battery Usage
The aircraft is powered by a Lithium-Polymer battery. LiPo/Li-Ion batteries can be
extremely hazardous and special attention is required during usage.
Read and follow carefully all safety messages and instructions presented to
avoid personal injury or property damage.
WARNING
The Lithium-Polymer battery is factory replaceable only; incorrect
replacement or tampering with the battery pack may cause an explosion.
Battery Use
• Use only the battery and battery charger provided by Autel Robotics. An
unqualied battery or charger may present a risk of re, explosion, leakage,
or other hazards. Autel Robotics takes no responsibility for any damage
caused by non-Autel-Robotics batteries or charging devices.
• Always turn off the aircraft before installing or removing the battery.
• Remove the battery before assembly or when not in use.
• Keep the battery away from water or any kind of liquid. If the battery gets in

Battery Charging
• Do not use a damaged battery charger.
• Disconnect the charger when not in use and examine the charger’s condition
regularly.
• Do not leave the battery unattended during the charging process.
• Do not charge the battery immediately after using it, as overheat protection
will be activated to prevent the battery from being charged before it cools
down completely.
• The charging time varies depending on the remaining battery level.
• Since over charging may shorten the battery life, stop charging the battery
after it is fully charged.
• Make sure to go through a charge cycle (charging the battery to 100% and
then discharging it to 7% or lower) every three months, or once the battery
is cycle-charged for 20 times.
Battery Storage
• Keep the battery out of reach of children and pets.
• Do not leave the battery close to moisture or heat sources. Store the battery
in a dry and ventilated area at room temperature (ideally 22°C to 28°C).
• Do not place the battery beside hard or sharp items, or on a conductive
surface (e.g., metal plate).
• Do not place the battery in wet grass or in the pocket with metal objects.
• Disconnect and remove the Li-Po battery from the aircraft after use to
prevent trickle discharge. During storage, make sure the battery level does
not fall below 3V.
• Using or storing the battery in extreme environments may reduce battery life.
• Battery life inevitably shortens over time. And battery life may be reduced if
the battery is left unused over extended periods of time.
• Completely discharge the battery before disposal.
• Dispose of the battery properly at specied battery recycling locations.
• Battery electrolytes are highly corrosive. If any electrolytes make contact
with your skin or eyes, immediately wash the affected area with fresh running
water and see a doctor.
Reminders
• Flying with an experienced pilot for the rst ight is strongly recommended.
• Keep small or electrical parts out of the reach of children.
• Keep away from heat sources or humid and hostile environments.
• Check the weather before ying, including air temperature and wind speed.
• Make a thorough preight check before each ight ( 26)
• Use only authorized accessories approved or provided by Autel Robotics.
• Do not attempt to disassemble, modify or reconstruct any part of the devices.
Autel Robotics will not be responsible for damages resulting from any
