- Disposal: Exhausted batteries must be removed from the toy. Dispose of batteries and electronic components responsibly according to local regulations. The product bears the WEEE symbol, indicating that it should not be disposed of with household waste.
Usage Features
Battery Installation:
- Transmitter: Open the battery compartment on the back of the transmitter. Insert 4 x 1.5V "AA" batteries, ensuring correct polarity. Close the compartment cover.
- Vehicle: The vehicle uses a rechargeable Li-ion 3.7V / 5W / 90mAh battery. The battery compartment is located on the underside of the vehicle. Insert the battery and secure the cover.
Power ON/OFF:
- Ensure the ON/OFF switch on both the transmitter and the vehicle is in the "ON" position before operation.
Driving Controls:
- Forward/Backward: Push the throttle lever on the transmitter forwards or backwards to move the vehicle.
- Turning: To turn the vehicle left or right, press the steering lever to the left or right. The vehicle can also turn by moving the steering wheel or moving the 2 levers in opposite directions to turn.
- Stopping: To stop the vehicle, release the throttle lever.
Transformation ("Switch") Feature:
- The vehicle has a unique transformation capability. By manipulating the controls, the vehicle can change its driving orientation, allowing it to drive in different configurations. This "switch" function is illustrated in the manual, showing how the vehicle can flip or reorient itself to tackle different terrains or obstacles.
Troubleshooting:
- No power: Ensure the vehicle power is on. Check that batteries in both the transmitter and vehicle are sufficiently charged and correctly inserted with the correct polarity.
- Interference/Poor control: If the distance between the transmitter and vehicle exceeds 25 meters, or if there are other 2.4 GHz devices nearby, interference may occur. Move to another location or try again after a while.
- Steering adjustment: If the vehicle tends to drift to the left or right on its own, use the trimmer (located beneath the car) to adjust the steering.
