NOTICE AND WARNINGS SAFETY PRECAUTIONS the the performance of Breeze may drift or fail to position when it flies indoors because Indoor Positioning System can be affected by light intensity and ground texture. You should not operate Breeze in the following situations:
1. Flying over particularly sparse surfaces or surfaces without clear patterns/textures;
2. Flying over highly reflective surfaces or surfaces with reflections;
3. Flying over water or waterlogged surfaces;
4. Flying over moving surfaces or objects (such as above large crowds or strong wind blowing over grass or shrubs);
5. Flying in an area where the lighting changes frequently or drastically;
6. Flying over extremely dark or bright surfaces;
7. Flying over surfaces with identical repeating patterns or textures (e.g. tiles with the same designcarpet with the repeating patterns);
8. Flying rapidly at an altitude of less than 0.3 meters off ground, the Indoor Positioning System may fail to help Breeze recover to hovering;
9. Install the propeller protectors when you operate Breeze indoors;
10. Disable GPS and use Pilot mode with Indoor Positioning System when you fly Breeze in an outdoor area with poor GPS signal like in-between two tall buildings for better results ;
11. Replace the altered/damaged propellers in time;
12. Keep the infrared lens, optical flow lens and camera lens clean;
13. Use the emergency button with great caution. Switching off the motors mid-flight may result in an uncontrolled descent and might possibly lead to damage to your Breeze and its surroundings. GENERAL WARNINGS 1. Breeze is not suitable for children under 14 years of age. 2. Breeze is designed for leisure purposes. The pilot must always maintain direct visual contact with Breeze and monitor its trajectory. Breeze must be used in accordance with the civil aviation regulations in your country. 3. Always operate your Breeze in open areas that are free from people, vehicles and other obstructions. Never fly near or above crowds, airports, train stations and other public places to ensure the safety of people, animals and property at all times. 4. Do not attempt to operate Breeze in potentially dangerous areas including areas near buildings, high voltage power lines or other obstructions that do not offer a clear view of the sky and can restrict GPS reception. 5. Do not use Breeze in adverse weather conditions such as rain, strong winds, and snow, or in poor visibility conditions, for example, at night. 6. Avoid Breeze being exposed to direct sunlight. 7. Do not touch Breeze while it is in flight! Wait until the propellers have completely stopped before handling Breeze.
