ment. (See diagram below). Then replace the screw and tighten gently. (See also Battery Information on page 9.)

Maintenance and Care:
•	Never drive the vehicle on a wet floor, or in sand, mud, rain or snow.
•	These conditions can damage your vehicle.
	Do not expose the vehicle to extreme temperatures.
•	When storing your vehicle, please remove the batteries from the
•	vehicle and the transmitter.
	Protect your vehicle’s wheel mechanism from foreign objects such
	as lint, hair and dust by using a small brush, tweezers or a small piece
•	of cloth tied to the tip of a toothpick to wipe the wheel off.
	Use only a dampened cloth to clean the vehicle. After cleaning, use
	a dry cloth to wipe off all the water. Never use any chemical agents
	to clean the vehicle.
Helpful Hints:
•	If the vehicle is not responding to the transmitter, make sure the car
	is not beyond radio signal contact by moving the vehicle nearer the
•	transmitter.
	If the vehicle starts to lose power, replace the vehicle’s batteries.
•	If the vehicle starts to move slowly, this can be caused either by
	weak batteries or by foreign objects in the wheel mechanism. Check
	the wheel first, and clean, if necessary, by using the instructions list

ed above in Maintenance and Care. If the wheel is clean, replace the vehicle’s batteries. Remember that the 9V battery in the transmitter

4

•will last longer than the 3 AA batteries in the vehicle.

When the transmitter range decreases, replace the battery in the con-

•troller.

Your control of the car may be interfered with by someone using a CB radio near you. If this happens, move the car and transmitter away from the CB radio.

Caution:
•	Do not apply any electrical shocks to either the vehicle or
•	transmitter.
	Do not run the car during a thunderstorm.
•	Do not touch the vehicle’s wheels when the vehicle’s Power Switch
•	is turned “On.” This is extremely dangerous.
	Do not leave the vehicle or transmitter near sources of heat or under
	direct sunlight for extended periods of time. This may damage the
•	sensitive electronic instruments within the vehicle and transmitter.
	Do not operate the vehicle near small children, as this can be very
•	dangerous.
	Always select a safe place to run your vehicle. Never drive your
•	vehicle in the street.
	Rechargeable batteries are to be removed from the toy being
•	charged.
	Rechargeable batteries are only to be recharged under adult
	supervision.

Operation:

Extend the telescopic antenna of the controller to full length for best performance. For maximum range of control, always keep both antennae straight up.

Set the car and transmitter Power Switches to “On.” The car is ready for use. Use the transmitter’s control levers to steer the car. (See diagrams on next page).
