Manual pre-heating function
The SBP automatically heats up as soon as it is connected to the UAV. As it is safety relevant the UAV will not allow the preight
check if the battery temperature is below its operational temperature.
In order to reduce the automatic on-site heating time it is recommended to pre-heat the battery when ying at ambient tem-
peratures below 16 °C (61 °F).
1. Press and hold down the button on the bottom of the battery for more than 8 seconds.
2. The SoC LEDs will ash alternated with a red one until the battery reaches optimal operation temperature.
3. The heating will stop automatically (LEDs will stop ashing).
