the battery level falls below 3.2 V except when a model is
connected (safety feature).
Land immediately and turn off the model if a battery
warning occurs.
■ Take special care with the following to prevent unwant-
ed heat generation, re and explosion.
☠ Danger Use only the supplied wall charger with the appro-
priate adapter. Check the voltage in the country you are in,
it must not exceed 100-240 V AC.
» Do not misconnect (+) and (–)
» Do not place VBar Control or the charger next to heat or
open re.
» Keep open terminals (+) and (–) away from conductive
materials like metal surfaces, carbon bre, tools.
» Never disassemble or modify VBar Control beyond what
is described in this manual, and never use a soldering
iron on the electronics.
☠ Danger Never use batteries other than those sold by
Mikado Model Helicopters. The batteries have been care-
fully selected and adapted for use in VBar Control. Always
monitor the charging process, even though the integrated
charging circuit takes care of the proper charging parame-
ters. Stop the charging process immediately if the device
gets hot.
» Never allow the battery to have any contact with liquids.
» Never damage the insulation, connecting wires, connec-
tors.
» Stop using a battery that has taken damage to the insu-
lation, connecting wires, connectors.
» Battery liquids are dangerous. If your eyes, skin or
clothes come in contact with these, rinse thoroughly and
wash your clothes with clean water.
» Always monitor the condition of your batteries by check-
ing the operating time and charging time. When operat-
ing times or charging times start to differ strongly, the
end of a battery’s lifetime may have come.
» Battery failure may cause your model going out of con-
trol, causing dangerous situations.
☝ Attention Never store your VBar Control and the battery in
high temperature, or in very dusty or very humid conditions.
» Store the VBar Control and the battery outside of the
reach of infants and children.
» Never charge the battery of your VBar Control in very
cold conditions (lower than 0 °C).
» A used Lithium Polymer battery is not domestic waste. To
dispose of a Lithium Polymer battery, discharge the bat-
tery, insulate the terminals with tape. Then take it to a
store/dealer who can dispose of small rechargeable bat-
teries, or take it to a collection point for harmful substanc-
es.
» Never keep the VBar Control in direct sunlight for an ex-
tended time. Keep it in the shadow when it is not used.
