INTRODUCTION
I am Mega T-Rex and my power is yours to command! Tell me to
“go”, and I’ll make the earth shake with my powerful legs! Or tell me
to “eat”, and my spike-like teeth and super-strong jaws will leave
nothing behind!
Turn me into a building crane for even more excitement! Hear me rev
my engine and blast my horn! Or fire my drill for some demolition fun!
There’s so much we can do together. Just say the word!

HOW TO USE VOICE COMMANDS
Mega T-Rex responds to 12 different commands in each mode.
Before you can give a command, you have to get his attention. Say
“Hello T-Rex” if he’s a dino, or “Hello Truck Driver” if he’s a truck. Wait
for him to respond, then say one of the commands. If he hears you, he’ll
follow your command. But if he says “Let’s try again later”, he didn’t
hear you and you should try saying the command again.
COMMAND MODE
If you don’t have the Command List with you and you don’t know the
commands, you can press the Command Mode button to have Mega
T-Rex give you a reminder.
In Command Mode, he will tell you what command to say. Just repeat
the command after him. You don’t have to say “Hello T-Rex” or “Hello
Truck Driver” first.
If you want to choose a different command, press the Command Mode
button again. Keep pressing the button until Mega T-Rex tells you the
command you’re looking for.

Tips to Improve the Dino’s Walking Motion
9
Note: To change the dino back into a truck, reverse the order of the
steps above.
Before you can transform the dino’s legs, you
have to unlock them. Pull back the release
switch behind each leg to unlock it. The leg
can then move forward.
TIPS TO IMPROVE THE DINO’S WALKING MOTION
Mega T-Rex’s legs will move up and down as he walks along the
ground. In order to keep the legs moving smoothly, please make sure
that the grey cover on the outside of each leg is in the proper position.
When Mega T-Rex turns into a dino, slide the cover forward
first. Then slide it up until it locks in place in the top position.
(See step 6 in the How to Switch section.)
When you turn Mega T-Rex into a truck, slide the cover
down to unlock it. Then slide it back into the bottom position.
NOTE: If the leg cover is not fixed in either the top or bottom position,
Mega T-Rex might not be able to move forward or backward in
response to voice commands in Dino Mode. If this happens, please
adjust the cover before trying the command again.
For best results, place Mega T-Rex on a hard surface.
If the rope has been cut off and drawn out of the unit, please follow
the steps below to fix it into the right place.
1. Tie a small knot at one end of
the string.
2. Feed the knot through the
hole on the crane wheel.
