Care & Use
• Running yourvehicle continuously for long periods can generate a high heat level. Heat causes wear and tear on themotor. Let
the vehicle cool for at least 10minutes before installing new batteries.
• If your vehicle moves slowly or not at all, replace the batteries. You may purchase batteries from your local RadioShack store.
• Do not touch the motor immediately afteruse; the motor gets very hot.
• The transmitter automatically shuts off to prolong battery life, if you keep the left control lever in one position for more than 40
seconds. Ifthis happens, move the left control lever to another position tocontinue driving.
• If someone uses a CB nearby, it might interfere with the control of the vehicle. If thishappens, move the vehicle and transmitter
away from the CB. You cannot operate your vehicle near devices with transmitters that use the same frequency as your vehicle.
Check your box to see which frequency you have.
• If the vehicle gets stuck under an object, immediately turn the transmitter off and retrieve the vehicle.
• Be sure the transmitter is not out of the vehicle’s range. Buildings, fences and other obstructions between the transmitter and
vehicle can reduce your operating range.
• If thevehicle moves slowly after you have installed new batteries, check the wheels for lint, thread, dust and hair.
• To extendthe battery life, let the vehicle rest for20 minutes afterevery 15 minutes of continuous use.
• Whenthe transmitter’sLED flashes, thebattery isweak. Replace its battery.
• Useonly fresh batteries of the required size
and recommended type.
• Do not mix old and new batteries, different
types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or
rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of
different capacities.
• If you do not plan to use the vehicle for sev-
eral days, removethe batteries fromthe
transmitter and vehicle. Batteries can leak
chemicals that may destroy electronic parts.
• Dispose of oldbatteries promptly and prop-
erly. Do not burn or burythem.
• Donot play with your vehicle inthe street.
• Do not run your vehicle through puddles, rain, dirt, or snow.
• Keep the vehicle dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.
• Handle the vehicle carefully. Do not drop it.
• Keep the vehicle away from dust and dirt.
• Store the vehicle in room temperature environments only.
• Wipethe vehicle occasionally with a damp cloth to keep it looking new.
Do not immerse it in water.
• If your vehicle does not performas it should, takeit to your local
RadioShack store for assistance. Modifying or tampering with your vehi-
cle’s internal components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate
its warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it.
