Seizure, Blackouts and Eyestrain A small percentage of people may be susceptible to blackouts or seizures (even if they have never had one before) when exposed to flashing lights or light patterns such as when playing games or watching video. If you have experienced seizures or blackouts or have a family history of such occurrences, you should consult a physician before playing games or watching videos. Discontinue use of SPRK+ and your smart device controller and consult a physician if you experience headaches, blackouts, seizures, convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary movement, or disorientation. To reduce risk of headaches, blackouts, seizures, and eyestrain, avoid prolonged use, hold your smart device controller some distance from your eyes, use SPRK+ in a well‐lit room, and take frequent breaks. WARNING: Choking Hazards SPRK+ and SPRK+ Power Pack have small internal components that may present a choking hazard to small children and pets. Keep SPRK+, SPRK+ Power Pack, and any accessories away from small children. Keeping SPRK+ Power Pack Within Acceptable Temperatures Operate and store SPRK+ and SPRK+ Power Pack in a place where the temperature is between 0º C ‐ 40º C (32º C ‐ 104º F). Low or high‐ temperature conditions might temporarily shorten battery life of SPRK+ or cause SPRK+ Power Pack to temporarily stop working. Avoid dramatic changes in temperature or humidity when using SPRK+, as condensation may form on or within SPRK+. When you’re using SPRK+ Power Pack for charging, it is normal for SPRK+ to get warm. Maintain clearance around the SPRK+ Power Pack case when in use to ensure proper airflow for temperature regulation. If the temperature limit of SPRK+ Power Pack is exceeded, the charging of the SPRK+ robots will pause and the charging status light on SPRK+ Power Pack will turn red. Use and Maintenance WARNING: SPRK+ is not suitable for use by children under 8 years of age. SPRK+ Power Pack must be operated by adults only. Never: Abuse, throw, drop, puncture, violently kick, or step on SPRK+ or SPRK+ Power Pack. This can damage the robot and/or the charging system and compromise safe operation. Operate SPRK+ or SPRK+ Power Pack in dangerous, hazardous, or public areas where use is not permitted (high voltage power lines, train stations, airports, trains, etc.). Check whether use of SPRK+ is permitted before using it in public areas or public transport. Always: Keep SPRK+ in sight during operation to avoid injuries or damages to people, animals, or property. Keep a safe distance between the robot and people, animals, and property. Periodically examine SPRK+ and SPRK+ Power Pack and its contents for potential hazards such as cracked, damaged, or otherwise broken parts. In the event of such damage, do not use SPRK+ or SPRK+ Power Pack until it can be replaced or repaired. Operate SPRK+ Power Pack in the horizontal position to ensure proper charging of the SPRK+ robots. SPRK+ Power Pack USER MANUAL Battery Warning Each SPRK+ contains a single cell 3.7V lithium polymer rechargeable battery that is charged by use of the SPRK+ Power Pack. Do not attempt to charge SPRK+ batteries with any charger other than the SPRK+ charging cradle and SPRK+ Power Pack. The lithium polymer batteries in the SPRK+ are extremely hazardous and liable to cause serious injuries to persons or property. The user accepts liability for the use of a lithium polymer battery. As the manufacturer and the distributor cannot ensure the battery is used correctly (charging, discharging, storage, etc.), neither can be held liable for damages caused to persons or property by improperly used batteries. In the event of battery leakage, avoid the liquid coming into contact with skin and eyes. In case of contact with the skin, wash copiously with soap and water. In case of contact with the eyes, rinse copiously with cold water and consult a doctor. If you notice a suspicious smell or noise, or observe smoke around the charger, disconnect it immediately. Non‐compliance with the instructions below could result in gas being given off, fire, electric shock, or an explosion. Charging Examine the SPRK+ Power Pack regularly for damage to the cord, plug, enclosure, or other parts. Never use a damaged SPRK+ cradle charger or power adapter. Use only the supplied power adapter rated at 12VDC 2A for SPRK+ Power Pack. Misuse can cause electrical shock or cause the SPRK+ Power Pack to seize operation. Never charge a leaky battery or one that has been damaged. Do not use the SPRK+ Power Pack or any of the SPRK+ charging cradles to charge any other battery or product than SPRK+. Never attempt to recharge a non‐rechargeable battery. Do not charge near flammable materials or on a flammable surface (carpet, wooden flooring, wooden furniture, etc.) or conductive surface (metal table, metal shelf, etc.). Do not leave SPRK+ Power Pack unattended during charging. Never charge SPRK+ immediately after use while it is still hot. Let it cool down to room temperature before charging in the SPRK+ Power Pack. SPRK+ is only to be charged under adult supervision. SRPK+ Power Pack should only be operated by an adult. Do not cover SPRK+ Power Pack during charging as airflow to the cooling fans may be compromised. Operate SPRK+ Power Pack in an ambient temperature between 0ºC ‐ 40ºC (32ºF ‐ 104ºF). If SPRK+ Power Pack temperature exceeds its charging operation limit, the charging cycle will pause and the SPRK+ Power Pack status light will turn red. Keep the unit plugged in with the fans running until the status light turns green and the charging cycle automatically begins. There is no reset necessary for SPRK+ Power Pack after an overtemperature condition has been reached. Use and storage Do not use SPRK+ if its shell has been broken and the battery’s plastic cover has been cracked or compromised in any way. Do not expose the SPRK+ battery to excessive physical shock. Do not expose SPRK+ and its battery to heat or dispose of it in a fire. Do not put the battery in a microwave oven or in a pressurized container. Do not attempt to dismantle, pierce, distort, or cut the battery and do not attempt to repair the battery. Do not place any heavy objects on or in the SPRK+ Power Pack or SPRK+. Do not clean the SPRK+ Power Pack with a solvent, denatured alcohol, or other inflammable solvents. When cleaning, be sure to unplug the power adapter and charger. Keep the SPRK+ Power Pack turned off when not in use. The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
