Distilled water
Slowly pour water into the water tank
opening above the refueling station until the
water level reaches the top. Let the water
rest in the tank for at least 5 minutes before
moving on to the next step. This allows the
electrolyzer time to absorb the water.
TIP: For optimal
operation and
longer life of the
refueling station,
use of distilled
water is highly
recommended.
You can
purchase distilled
water from your
local drugstore or
pharmacy.
DC
off
Switch the refueling station to the "☼" sign.
The small blue lights will now be flashing and
you are now producing hydrogen fuel using
unlimited power from the sun! You can see
you are producing hydrogen when small
oxygen bubbles form on the right side of the
water tank. Turn the switch off and the
hydrogen production will stop.
To purge the complete fuel cell power
system, remove all the air out of the
balloon by pulling on the syringe. Stop
pulling on the syringe once all the air is
removed from the balloon.
Refueling and operation
Push all the air out of the syringe. Insert
the gas purging syringe into the car’s input
valve turning the syringe’s connector valve
clockwise while gently pressing in.
Tips:
1. Use the first tank of hydrogen to purge out impure gas
-- Fill the hydrogen tank and press the purging valve to
release hydrogen completely.
2. Use the second tank of hydrogen to warm up the fuel cell
-- Re-fill the hydrogen tank and warm up the fuel cell with
this 2nd tank of hydrogen until the balloon is empty.
3. Run the car with the 3rd tank of Hydrogen
-- Re-fill the hydrogen tank and it’s time to run the car.
Enjoy!
Attach the back of the solar panel to its small rectangular
support provided in the kit. You can decide to place the
solar panel vertically or horizontally depending on how you
position the support on the back of the panel. Connect the
black cable to the black input jack on the solar cell, and the
red cable to the red input jack on the solar cell.
Connect the other end of the cable to the input jack of the
refueling station.
Place the solar panel in direct sunlight.
WARNING: Make sure these connections are
correct. If connected incorrectly the refueling
station may not function properly.
If it is getting dark, or if
the sun is not very
powerful, or if you want to
accelerate refueling time,
you can at any time
switch the refueling
station to "DC". In this
case hydrogen would be
produced using the
power of two AA alkaline
batteries (step 7).
Disconnect the syringe connector valve from the
additional input valve attached to the refueling station
by turning it counterclockwise, allowing the connector
to pop out. Your storage tank is now purged and
ready to receive hydrogen from the refueling station.
TIP: After 20 minutes of continuous use, turn the Hydrogen
Station off, and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before
starting it again.
Using the solar panel, make sure it is placed in
direct sunlight. It will take about 10 minutes in strong
sunlight for the car's tank to fill up with hydrogen
using the standard solar panel included. Keep the
refueling station powered until the balloon inside the
hydrogen storage cylinder is full. Once the operation
is complete and the balloon is full, make sure you
turn the refueling station to the "off" position.
Alternative: It will take at least 1 minute for the
balloon to fill with hydrogen using the "DC"
power switch if the batteries are new.
WARNING: Continuous operation
of the Hydrogen Station could
damage it permanently.
Remote control
Step 1: Use the screwdriver to open the
cover of the battery compartment.
Step 2: Insert 3 new LR44 batteries with
the correct polarity positions.
Step 3: Use the screwdriver to close the
cover of the battery compartment.
Activation of fuel cell
and operation
Press the buttons on
the remote control to
control forward and
backward motions of
the car. Press the right
button to keep the car
moving forward. Press
the button located in
the middle to keep the
car moving backward.
The car can turn when
it moves backwards. If
the car runs slowly or
cannot run with a fully charged balloon, refer to the following
step.
Turn the switch to “warm up” position. Leave the car until it
fully consumes the hydrogen and activates the fuel cell.
Turn the switch to the “off” position. Repeat refueling
process again to fill storage container with hydrogen.
It is estimated that on a full tank and after “warm up” the
H-racer 2.0 will run up to several minutes. Once the
operation is complete and the balloon is full, make sure you
turn the hydrogen station to the “off” position.
ON OFF WARM UP
Place two 1.5V AA alkaline batteries inside the
battery compartment as indicated, then close the
battery compartment.

1. The car does not move or runs slowly:
a. Re-insert the batteries in the remote control or remove the used batteries and insert new batteries into the remote
control with correct polarity.
b. Turn the switch to “on” position, if it is in the “off” or “warm up” position.
c. Activate the fuel cell by turning the switch to "warm up" position. The light under the gas storage cylinder will not
flash. Leave the car until it fully consumes the hydrogen and activates the fuel cell. Turn the switch to the "on" position.
The light under the gas storage cylinder will flash.
d. Press the purging valve to purge the remaining gases and then charge the hydrogen storage balloon fully again.
e. Make sure the wheels are free of obstacles. Point the remote control directly at the car.
2. The car runs for a short time:
a. Charge the car until the balloon in the tank swells fully along the wall of the tank.
b. Activate the fuel cell again or prolong the activation process as in 1.c.
c. Charge the car, press the purging valve to purge it, and then re-charge the car again until it is fully charged.
3.The green LED lights do not flash and/or no bubbles appear in the Hydrogen Station’s water tank:
a. If you are using solar panels, make sure the solar panel is in direct sunlight. The standard solar cell included with
the Hydrogen Station will fill the H-racer 2.0 after at least 10 minutes in strong sunlight. Also, check whether the cable
connections are correct.
b. If you are using the "ON" battery power option and bubbles are appearing slowly the batteries may be out of power.
Please replace the alkaline batteries inside the Hydrogen Station with new alkaline batteries.
c. If the bubbles are appearing slowly or if there are no bubbles in the Hydrogen Station’s water tank, first add water
to the water tank filling it to the top and then position the tube connected to the syringe at the top left outlet from the
tubing where the bubbles should be released. Pull the inner plunge of the syringe towards you. Empty the water in the
syringe into the water tank. Repeat this step several times until you see the bubbles come out from the top left outlet.
4. The balloon inside the car's storage tank does not fill up:
a. Make sure all the tubes inside the car are well connected and that the output valve of the hydrogen station is well
connected to the input valve of the car (press the output valve tightly into the input valve). You may want to unplug
and plug the connectors once more to be sure.
b. If all connections are correct and bubbles are released, and the balloon still does not fill up - your H-racer 2.0
refueling system may be damaged due to improper use. Do not attempt to repair or fix your H-racer 2.0, contact
[email protected] for assistance.
c. Remove the used batteries and insert new ones with the correct polarity.
