Usage Features
Assembly:
Adult assembly is required. The car contains small parts, so children under 3 years of age should not be present during assembly. Protective material and poly bags should be removed and disposed of before assembly.
- Front and Rear Wheels Installation: Turn the car body upside down. Attach side brackets to the left and right sides of the car body using screws and a screwdriver. For both front and rear wheels, remove split pins and washers from the axle, attach the wheels, place washers on each side, insert split pins into the corresponding openings, and then attach the wheel covers by pushing them until they click. The cogwheels of the rear wheels must fit tightly to the cogwheels of the gearboxes.
- Attaching the Steering Wheel: Connect the steering wheel's cable to the car's cable, then insert the cables into the opening. Place the steering wheel on the tip of the steering rod, aligning the openings. Secure it with a 5x35mm bolt and M5 nut using a screwdriver. Be careful not to damage the cables.
- Attaching the Front Windshield: Attach the windshield to the front part of the car's body by inserting its plastic pins into the corresponding openings. Press carefully down to fix it, avoiding excessive force that could break parts.
- Connecting Car Cables to Battery and Attaching Seat: Lift the seat and connect the red cable to the red terminal of the battery, ensuring correct polarity. Never connect a black cable to a red terminal or vice versa, as this may cause a short circuit. Turn on the car to check the connection. Place the seat back, ensuring its plastic pins enter the corresponding openings in the car body, then fix the seat with two screws.
Operating the Car:
- Power Button (P): Turns the car ON or OFF.
- Foot Pedal (FP): Used by the child to accelerate.
- Forward/Reverse Buttons (F/B): Selects the direction of movement.
- Charging Socket (C): For connecting the charger.
- Music Player (MP): Plays music.
Driving:
- Switch the car's power on. Music will start playing.
- Moving Forward: Put the Forward/Backward switch in the Forward position and press the foot pedal.
- Stopping: Lift your foot from the pedal or switch the Forward/Backward button to the middle position.
- Moving Backward: Ensure the car is stopped, then put the Forward/Backward switch in the Reverse position and press the foot pedal.
- Notice: Always ensure the car is stopped before changing direction to prevent damage to gears and motor.
- Warning: Do not listen to loud music to prevent hearing impairment.
Remote Control (RC):
The remote control operates at 2.4GHz. It has a power button (P), forward/backward (F/B), left/right (L/R) steering buttons, and a speed indicator (SI).
- Pairing: Turn on the car, then press the remote control's power button for 2-3 seconds until the indicator light flashes. The light will turn solid, indicating successful pairing. If pairing fails, turn off both the car and remote, then repeat.
- Functions:
- P (Power): Turns the remote ON/OFF.
- F (Forward): Moves the car forward.
- B (Backward): Moves the car backward.
- S (Stop): Stops the car.
- L (Left): Turns the car left.
- R (Right): Turns the car right.
- SI (Speed Indicator): 1 light = slow speed, 2 lights = medium speed, 3 lights = fast speed.
- Battery: The remote control uses 2 x 1.5V AAA/LR03 batteries.
- Notice: The remote control has a memory function for new car models (KL-5088-1). If you change the car, you may need to re-pair the remote.
- Important: The remote control has priority over manual pedal operation. If the remote is used, the pedal will not work.

- Clean the car only with a soft, dry cloth. Use a non-wax furniture polish to restore shine to plastic parts. Do not use strong abrasive cleaning agents.
- Always disconnect the car from the transformer before cleaning.
Maintenance and Storage:
- Parents/adults are responsible for regularly checking main parts (battery, charger, cables, wires, bushings, screws, body, driving systems, wheels, fastening components) for good condition, damage, or wear. Discontinue use if any issues are found and contact the seller for consultation.
- Ensure plastic parts are not cracked or broken.
- Periodically lubricate moving parts (wheels, driving links) with a very thin layer of lubricating oil, being careful during application.
- Store the car in an upright position; do not turn it upside down or tilt it. Park the car indoors or cover it with a tarpaulin to protect it from wet weather.
- When not in use, store the product in a dry, cool, and well-ventilated place. Keep away from heat sources (open fire, heating devices, cooking stoves) and damp areas.
