Battery Tips
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Do not mix different types of batteries: alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or
rechargeable (nickel-cadmium).
• Remove the batteries during long periods of non-use. Always remove
exhausted batteries from this toy. Battery leakage and corrosion can cause
damage. Dispose of exhausted batteries safely.
• Never short circuit the battery terminals.
• Non-rechargeable batteries are not to be recharged.
• Only batteries of the same or equivalent type as recommended in the
“Battery Installation” instructions are to be used.
• If removable rechargeable batteries are used, they are only to be charged
under adult supervision.
• Rechargeable batteries are to be removed from the toy before they
are charged.
• If you use a battery charger, it should be examined regularly for damage
to the cord, plug, enclosure and other parts. Do not use a damaged bat-
tery charger until it has been properly repaired.

Battery Installation
Let’s Go for a Spin !
Note! When Press ‘n Go RC™stops working, it’s time to replace
the batteries!
Under normal use conditions, the batteries in the RC car will require
replacement more often than the batteries in the remote. When you notice
that the RC car does not respond to the remote, try replacing the batteries
in the RC car before replacing the batteries in the remote.
CAUTION
To prevent entanglement, keep hair away from wheels.
Important Notes
• This RC car works best on smooth, hard surfaces and operates by infra-
red technology. The transmitter is located at the tip of the remote and the
receiver is located in one of the pretend lights on the RC car’s sport bar.
For best performance between the remote and RC car, make sure the
transmitter and the receiver are in direct line of sight, free of obstacles.
• For best performance, keep the RC car within approximately 15 feet of the
remote and avoid operating the RC car in very bright light conditions. In
bright natural or artificial light you may notice loss of range. If the RC car
operates erratically or does not respond to the remote, move the RC car
closer to the remote and/or adjust the light conditions. If the RC car still
fails to respond to the remote, it’s probably time to replace the batteries.
• In the unlikely event that use of the remote interferes with normal use of
other remote controlled equipment, such as televisions and stereos, or use
of other electric or battery powered appliances interfere with operation of
the RC car, do not use both appliances at the same time.

want to go, press and hold the button on the remote to drive the RC car
forward again.
