Safety Instructions Battery Safety Instructions The aircraft is powered by a Lithium-Polymer battery. The misuse of Li-Po/Li-Ion batteries can be extremely hazardous, special attention is required during usage. Carefully read and follow all the battery safety instructions to avoid personal injury or property damage. WARNING The Lithium-Polymer battery is factory replaceable only. Incorrect replacement or tampering with the battery pack may cause an explosion. Battery electrolytes are highly corrosive. If any electrolyte is splashed onto your skin or in your eyes, immediately wash the affected area with fresh running water and see a doctor. Usage Only use the battery and charger provided by Autel Robotics. An unapproved EDWWHU\ RU FKDUJHU PD\ UHVXOW LQ UH H[SORVLRQ OHDNDJH RU RWKHU KD]DUGV

Autel Robotics takes no responsibility for any damage caused by non-Autel-

Robotics batteries or charging devices. Always turn off the aircraft before installing or removing the battery. Remove the battery from the aircraft after use to prevent trickle discharge. Keep the battery away from water or any kind of liquid. Using or charging a wet battery may lead to an explosion.

Do not disassemble, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, or shred the battery. Do not modify, remanufacture, or attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery. Do not place heavy objects on the battery or charger. Stop using or charging the battery immediately whenever the battery starts to swell, smoke or leak. Use the battery at temperatures between -10C and 40C. Extremely high WHPSHUDWXUHVPD\FDXVHDUHRUH[SORVLRQH[WUHPHO\ORZWHPSHUDWXUHVPD\

until it is completely dry. Stop using this battery and contact Autel Robotics customer support. Charging Do not use a damaged battery charger. When the charger is not in use, disconnect it and examine its condition regularly. Do not leave the battery alone during the charging process. Do not charge the battery immediately after using, as overheat protection will be activated to prevent the battery from being charged before it cools completely. The charging time varies depending on the remaining battery level. Since over charging may shorten the battery life, stop charging the battery once it is fully charged. Go through a charge cycle (charge the battery to 100% and then discharge it WRRUORZHUHYHU\WKUHHPRQWKVRURQFHWKHEDWWHU\LVF\FOHFKDUJHG

times. It should take a maximum of 150 minutes to fully charge the battery. Storage Keep the battery out of reach of children and pets. Do not leave the battery close to moisture or heat sources. Store the battery in DGU\DQGYHQWLODWHGDUHDDWURRPWHPSHUDWXUHLGHDOO\&WR&

Do not place the battery beside hard or sharp items, or on a conductive VXUIDFHHJPHWDOSODWH

Do not place the battery in wet grass or in the pocket with metal objects. Make sure the battery voltage level does not fall below 3V during storage. Using or storing the battery in extreme environments may reduce the battery life. Battery life inevitably shortens over time. And battery life may be reduced if it is left unused over extended periods of time. Disposal Completely discharge the battery before disposal. Dispose of the battery properly at approved battery recycling locations.

 Short Circuit Protection: The power supply will be cut off if a short circuit is detected.

 Power Saving Mode: The battery will cut off the power supply and enter power saving mode after 30 minutes of inactivity to retain the energy.

 Communication: The aircraft is able to communicate with the battery to get real time battery information such as voltage, capacity, current, temperature, etc.

 Ultra-Low Power Consumption Mode: To save power, the battery will enter the Ultra-Low Power Consumption Mode if it is idle for 7 days and the battery



voltage is lower than 11.7V. In this situation, the battery can be used normally after being connected to the charger. 2.1.4 Gimbal and Camera z XI-5A Camera Gimbal The XI-5A Camera Gimbal enabled the camera to capture clear photos and videos.

According to the new design, the aircraft is able to detect and avoid obstacles on LWVLJKWSDWKXVLQJForward Vision System. Normally the remote controllers function will be disabled temporarily while the aircraft returns to the home point, but you can still regain control of the aircraft by pressing the Pause Button ( 

on the remote controller if the Forward Vision System is disabled during this period.



IMPORTANT When the Go Home function is activated, for safety reasons, if the aircraft is hovering at the altitude lower than 30 meters, it will ascend to an altitude of 30 meters above the home point before starting to return. You can adjust the Go Home altitude in the app. If the Go Home function is activated within 10 meters radius from the home point, the aircraft will land automatically in-place from its current altitude. z Failsafe The Failsafe function is designed to help EVO automatically return home or land onsite when necessary.

 Communication Lost Failsafe will be triggered 3s after the communication between your aircraft and remote controller gets lost. If GPS is available when activating the Failsafe function, the aircraft will start the Go Home procedure automatically, otherwise it will land onsite. When the remote controller signal comes back, you can still press the Pause Button ( WR

regain control of the aircraft.

 Low Aircraft Battery Level Failsafe will also be activated if you meet one of the following low battery conditions. A. Your aircraft battery constantly calculates the required battery level for the aircraft to return to the home point from its current location. When the battery level reaches the minimum level required for the aircraft to return to the home point, a notice displayed on the Autel Explorer app will prompt you, and Failsafe will be activated after 10 seconds if no action is taken. Your aircraft will automatically return home to protect itself. You can regain control of the aircraft by pressing the Pause Button ( GXULQJWKHGo Home process.

 Accurate Landing EVO will scan and match the terrain features if Accurate Landing function is active, it will land as close as possible to the take-off point once the current terrain matches take-off point terrain. IMPORTANT The aircraft records the take-off point as the default home point, Accurate Landing is only working when the home point is not refreshed GXULQJWKHLJKW

Make sure there are no changes of your take-off point when the aircraft is ready to land. Choose a distinctive terrain as your take-off point. Choose a spot on the ground that is well lit to take off and land your aircraft. NOTE Landing Protection and Accurate Landing can be enabled via Autel Explorer app, the instructions are available in the App Manual. z StarpointTM Positioning System 14 The StarpointTM Positioning System installed on EVO, functions through Binocular Cameras and two Ultrasonic Sensors on the bottom of the aircraft. The sensors identify the current height of the through ultrasound, aircraft and the camera obtains location information through image analysis. With the help of the StarpointTM Positioning System, the aircraft FDQKRYHULQSODFHPRUHSUHFLVHO\ZKHQ\LQJLQGRRUVRULQRWKHUHQYLURQPHQWV

where the GPS signal is unavailable. NOTE The StarpointTM Positioning System is activated by default when the aircraft is powered on. The StarpointTM Positioning System works both in GPS and ATTI modes and is only valid when the aircraft is between 0.5m and 10m above the surface. z Forward Vision System and Rear Avoidance Sensors The Forward Vision System installed on the front of the aircraft using image data to detect the distance between the aircraft and obstacles. The aircraft will brake by itself when obstacles are detected in front. At the same time, infrared sensors located on the rear of the aircraft are also capable of measuring the heat being emitted by an object and detecting motion, which will help the aircraft avoid obstacles in a different way. TIPS Always keep the binocular camera lens clean for a clear view. Do not use other 40KHz ultrasonic devices nearby when the StarpointTM Positioning System is activated. 15 IMPORTANT The performance of the StarpointTM Positioning System and Forward Vision System are affected by the brightness and texture of the surface RYHUZKLFKWKHDLUFUDIWLV\LQJ7KHXOWUDVRQLFVHQVRUVPD\QRWIXQFWLRQ
