# Fly Safe

DJI encourages you to enjoy flying your Phantom 3 Professional in a safe. responsible, and smart way. To do this, it is importan t to unde rstand some basic fligh t gu idelines, both for you r protection and for the sa fety of those around you. 1. F ly i n Open Areas : Always ll y in locations that are free and clear o f buildings, trees, power lines, and other o bstacle s. Do not fly above

ornearpeopleo r a nim als 2. Main t ain Co ntrol a t A ll Ti m es: Even when using DJI autopilot func t ions such as Auto-Takeof f , Auto-Landing, and Auto
- Return to

Home, always keep your hands on the Remote Controller and maintain control of your aircraft when it is in flight. 3. Ma i ntain Li ne of Sight: Keep yot_r aircraft in sight at all times, and avold tlying behind**bu~d()gs** or other obstacles that may block your view. 4. Monit or Your Altitude: For the sa f ety of full
- sized ai r c raft and other air t raffic, al ways fly a t altitudes less than 400 feet (120 meters) above ground level,

. • Ca li br ati ng th e Compass: Make sure to cal i brate th e compass at every new flight loca ti on. The compass is very sensitive to electromagnetic interierence, which can cause abnonnal compass data, leading to poor flight performance or even failure. Regu l ar cali b ration is required f or optimot perfonnance 1. DO NOT ca l ibro te your compass where there is 

### a chance of strong magnetic interference, such as magneti te, parking st r uctures, and steel reinforcements underground. 2. 00 NOT carry ferro rnagnet ic materials with you during cali bration such as keys or cel l ular phones. 3. 00 NOT calibrate beside massive metal objects. 4. If the Aircraft Statu s Indicators are**sho~o·ving** solid red, then try to calibrate again. It they are blinking red and yellow alterna t ely after

placing tile aircra lt on the ground , the compass has det ec ted magnetic interference. Change yo ur location • Enviro n men ta l Considerat i ons: 1. Do not fl y in severe wea t her conditi o n s
. This in c l ud es higll winds(speeds of 22 mph or 10 m/s or more), snov,, ra i n, and tog 2

. Only fly i n open areas. TaU building s an d stee l s tru c tures may affect tile accuracy of the on-board compass and GPS signal. 3. Avoid obstacles, crowds, l1igh
- voltage power lines, trees, and bodies of water. 4. Minimize electromagnet ic int erference by avoid ing a rea s with high levels of elec tromagnetism, including mobile phone base stations,

radio transmiss io n tower s
. or Wi-Fi hotspots. 5. Aircrart and b a ttery performance are subject to environmental factors such as air density and temperattJr e. Be very careful whe n

flying 19,600 feet (6 km) or m ore a b ove sea l evel, as battery and aircraft performa n ce may not be at p ea k ofl lc l o n c y
