I imagine the "voltage" that you're adjusting will be the charger's "peak cut-off", and not the nominal voltage of the pack as all LiPo cells are 3.7V at rest. You might want to set the cut-off lower sometimes for storage, which is why the setting is there...but in this case, you want 4.2V per cell. A charging bag is always a good idea as Bodgit pointed out, and 3.3A charge rate will be perfect for your pack.

Nah you can put 10 volts in your lipos and not cause any bother. But just leave it on 8.4, C is the unit of charge in coulombs.

One coulomb is the amount of electric charge transported in one second by a steady current of one ampere.
You can put 10V into a 2S pack if you have a strong desire for 3rd degree burns and to set the building alight, but short of that, it's a VERY bad idea.
