# Charging Process Guidelines

## Never charge batteries unattended.

Always charge LiPo batteries in an isolated area, away from other flammable materials on a concrete surface outside of buildings.

## Let the battery cool down

Prior to charging, make sure to let the battery cool down to ambient temperature before charging.

## Select the cell count and voltage as it appears on the battery label

When selecting the cell count or voltage for charging purposes, select the cell count and voltage as it appears on the battery label. Selecting a cell count or voltage other than the one printed on the label can be dangerous. As a safety precaution, please confirm the information printed on the battery is correct.
