Safety notes
!
These safety instructions are intended not only to protect the product, but also for your own and other people’s safety. Therefore
please read this section very carefully before using the product!
• Do not leave the packaging material lying around, this could be
a dangerous toy for children.
• Persons, including children, with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, or not
capable to use safely the transmitter must not use the transmitter without supervision or instruction by a responsible person.
• Operation and use of radio-controlled models needs to be
learnt! If you have never operated a model of this type before,
start carefully and make yourself familiar with the model's
reactions to the remote control commands. Proceed always
responsibly.
• Protect all equipment from dust, dirt, moisture. All equipment
must be protected from vibration as well as excessive heat or
cold. The models may only be operated remotely in normal
outside temperatures such as from -10°C to +55°C.
• First, always perform a range and function test on the ground
before you start using your model. Only so you can grant a safe
use! How to perform a range test is explained in the Part 2 of
the manual.
• Always use all your HoTT components only with the latest
firmware version.
• If you have questions which cannot be answered by the operating manual, please contact us or another expert in the field.

For your safety by handling the transmitter
!
WARNING
Also while programming the transmitter, make sure that a motor
connected in the model cannot accidentally start. Disconnect the
fuel supply or drive battery beforehand.
!
CAUTION
Avoid every kind of short-circuit in all sockets of the transmitter
and of the receiver! Risk of fire! Use only the suitable connectors.
In no case the electronic component of the transmitter or of the
receiver may be changed or modified. Any interference will void
the authorization.
Note
During transport protect the model and the transmitter from damages.
For your safety by handling the battery
!
CAUTION
• Protect all equipment from dust, dirt, moisture. Only use in dry
locations.
• Do not use any damaged battery.
• Any alterations to the battery can cause serious injury or burns.
• Batteries may not be heated, burned, short-circuited or charged
with excessive current or with reversed polarity.
• Combustible or highly flammable objects are to be kept away
from the charging area.
• Never leave the charger unattended when it is connected to
the power supply.
• Please charge your batteries only in rooms fitted with a smoke
detector.
• Always charge the battery with a suitable charger.
• The maximum quick charging current specified for the respective cell type may not be exceeded.
• If the battery heats up above 60°C while it is being charged,
stop charging and let the battery cool down to approximately
30 - 40°C.
10 / 36
S1002.PRO_sh_V2
• Never charge batteries that have already been charged or hot
ones. If a cell in a battery pack has become particularly hot following a quick-charge process, this may indicate a defect in
that cell. Do not use the battery pack any more!
• The batteries may not be modified. Do not directly solder or
weld the cells.
• If handled improperly, there is a danger of fire, explosion, irritation and burns. To extinguish a fire use: water, CO
2
or sand.
• Leaked electrolyte is caustic! It should not be touched or come
into contact with your eyes. In case of emergency, rinse with a
large quantity of water and consult a Med. Doctor.
Special instructions
• To charge and discharge batteries, only use specifically designed
chargers/dischargers with balancer connector.
• The white connector (cell count + 1 pole) is designed for the connection to a LiPo balancer or a battery charger as a single cell
charger with a manual cell balancer.
Safety notes for stocking batteries
• Batteries may only be stored in dry rooms with an ambient temperature of +5°C to +25°C.
• If the LiPo battery must be stored for a longer period, the voltage
per cell should be about 3,8V. If the cell voltage drops below 3 V,
they must be recharged immediately. Deep discharge makes the
battery short-term, longer storage in discharged as well as fully
charged state make the battery in the long term useless.
