## Intelligent Flight Battery Safety Guidelines

To avoid fire, serious injury, and property damage, observe the following safety guidelines
when using, charging, or storing your batteries.

Battery Use
1) **Do NOT allow the batteries to come into contact with any kind of liquid. Do NOT leave batteries**

**out in the rain or near a source of moisture. Do NOT drop the battery into water. If the inside of the battery comes into contact with water, chemical decomposition may occur, potentially resulting in**  **the battery catching on fire, and may even lead to an explosion.** 2) **Never use non-DJI batteries. Go to www.dji.com to purchase new batteries. DJI takes no**

**responsibility for any damage caused by non-DJI batteries.** 3) **Never use or charge swollen, leaky, or damaged batteries. If your batteries are abnormal, contact**

**DJI or a DJI authorized dealer for further assistance.** 4) **Never install or remove the battery from the aircraft when it is turned on. Do NOT insert or remove**

**batteries if the plastic cover has been torn or compromised in any way.** 5) **The battery should be used in temperatures from -10°C to 40°C. Use of the battery in environments**

**above 50°C can lead to a fire or explosion. Use of battery below -10°C can lead to permanent damage.**  6) **Do NOT use the battery in strong electrostatic or electromagnetic environments. Otherwise, the**

**battery control board may malfunction and cause a serious accid ent during flight.**  7) **Never disassemble or pierce the battery in any way or the batte ry may leak, catch fire, or explode.**

### 2 8) **Electrolytes in the battery are highly corrosive. If any electrolytes make contact with your skin or**

**eyes, immediately wash the affected area with fresh running water for at least 15 minutes, and then see a doctor immediately.**  9) **Do NOT use the battery if it was involved in a crash or heavy impact.** 10) **If the battery falls into water with the aircraft during flight, take it out immediately and put it in a safe and open area. Maintain a safe distance from the battery until it is completely dry. Never use**  **the battery again, and dispose of the battery properly as described in the Battery Disposal section below. Do NOT heat batteries. Put out any battery fire using sand or a dry powder fire extinguisher.**  11) **Do NOT put batteries in a microwave oven or in a pressurized container.** 12) **Do NOT place loose battery cells on any conductive surface, such as a metal table.** 13) **Do NOT put the loose cells in a pocket, bag or drawer where they may short-circuit against other items or where the battery terminals could be pressed against each other.**  14) **Do NOT drop or strike batteries. Do NOT place heavy objects on the batteries or charger. Avoid dropping batteries.**  15) **Clean battery terminals with a clean, dry cloth. When the terminals are dirty, unintended energy consumption or an inability to charge the battery may result.** 



### Battery Charging
1) **Do NOT attach the batteries to wall outlets or car charger sockets directly, and always use a DJI**

**approved adapter. DJI takes no responsibility if the battery is charged using a non-DJI charger.** 2) **Never leave the battery unattended during charging. Do NOT charge the battery near flammable**

**materials or on flammable surfaces such as carpet or wood.** 3) **Do NOT charge battery immediately after flight, because the battery temperature may be too high.**

**Do NOT charge the battery until it cools down to near room temperature. Charging the battery outside of the temperature range of 0°C-40°C may lead to leakage,**  **overheating, or battery damage.** 4) **Charge and discharge the battery completely once every 10 charge/discharge cycles. Discharge**

**the battery until there is less than 5% power or until it can no longer be turned on, then recharge it to the maximum capacity. This power cycling procedure will optimize the battery life and help**  **calibrate the battery gauge.** 5) **Disconnect the charger when not in use. Examine the charger regularly for damage to the**

**cord, plug, enclosure, or other parts. Do NOT clean the charger with denatured alcohol or other flammable solvents. Never use a damaged charger.**  6) **Never transport a damaged battery or a battery with power level higher than 50%.**



### Battery Storage
1) **Keep batteries out of the reach of children and pets.** 2) **Do NOT leave the battery near heat sources such as a furnace or heater. Do NOT leave the**

**batteries inside of a vehicle on hot days. The ideal storage te mperature is 22°C-28°C.**  3) **Keep the battery dry. Never drop the battery into water.** 4) **Do NOT drop, strike, impale, or manually short-circuit the battery.** 5) **Keep the battery away from metal objects such as glasses, watches, jewelry, and hairpins.**



### Battery Disposal
1) **Dispose of the battery in specific recycling boxes only after a complete discharge. Do NOT place**

**the battery in regular trash containers. Strictly follow your local regulations regarding the disposal and recycling of batteries.** 



### Battery Maintenance
1) **Never use the battery when the temperature is too high or too low.** 2) **Never store the battery in environments with a temperature high er than 60°C.** 



### Travel Notice
1) **Before carrying the Intelligent Flight Battery on an airline flight, it must first be fully discharged.**

**This can be done by using your aircraft until the battery is depleted. Only discharge the battery in a fireproof location.** © 2015 DJI. All Rights Reserved. This content is subject to change.

. **Maintaining a Healthy Battery Life** 1) **Never over-discharge, as this may lead to battery cell damage.** 2) **Never use the battery when the temperature is too high (higher than 70°C) or too low (lower than**

**-10°C).** 3) **Never store the battery in environments with a temperature higher than 60°C.** 4) **Battery life may be reduced if not used for a long time.**

Battery Use 1) Make sure the batteries are fully charged before each flight. 2) It is recommended that you do NOT charge the Intelligent Flight Battery and remote controller at the same time. 3) Land the aircraft immediately when the low battery level warning activates in the DJI Pilot app.

Battery Charging 1) The Intelligent Flight Battery is designed to stop charging when it is full. However it is a good practice to

monitor the charging progress and disconnect the batteries when fully charged.

Battery Storage 1) Discharge the battery to 40%-65% if it will NOT be used for 10 days or more. This can greatly extend the

battery life. 2) The battery automatically discharges to below 65% when it is idle for more than 10 days to prevent it from

swelling. It takes approximately 2 days to discharge the battery to 65%. It is normal that you may feel moderate heat emitting from the battery during the discharge process. Set the discharging thresholds in the DJI Pilot app. 3) The battery will enter hibernation mode if depleted and stored for a long period. Leave the battery

unattended for 5 minutes, and then it will power off. Recharge the battery to bring it out of hibernation. 4) Remove batteries from the aircraft when stored for an extended period. 5) Do NOT store the battery for an extended period after fully discharging it. Doing so may over discharge

the battery and cause irreparable battery cell damage.

Battery Disposal 1) If the power on/off button on the Intelligent Flight Battery is disabled and the battery cannot be fully

discharged, please contact a professional battery disposal/recycling agent for further assistance.

Battery Maintenance 1) Never over-discharge, as this may lead to battery cell damage. 2) Battery life may be reduced if not used for a long time. 3) Fully charge and discharge the battery at least once every 3 months to maintain battery health.

Travel Notice 1) Store Intelligent Flight Batteries in a ventilated location.
