Driving The Vehicle - Reely Rat Max Bedienungsanleitung

c) Driving the vehicle
• Improper use can cause serious injury and damage to property! Only use the vehicle when it is within
your sight. Do not use the vehicle at night.
• Only use the vehicle when you are fully alert and able to respond. As is the case when driving a real
vehicle, fatigue, alcohol or medications can affect your ability to respond.
• This model must not be used on public roads, spaces or paths. Do not use the vehicle on private land
without the landowner's permission.
• Do not drive towards people or animals!
• Avoid driving in very low outdoor temperatures. Plastic parts lose their elasticity in cold temperatures.
This can result in serious damage even after a minor accident.
• Do not use the vehicle during thunderstorms, under high-voltage power lines or next to radio masts.
• Always leave the remote control turned on when the vehicle is in use.
• When you have finished using the vehicle, switch off the speed controller and fully disconnect the battery
from the speed controller.
Then switch off the remote control.
• If the batteries (or rechargeable batteries) in the remote control are weak, the transmission range de-
creases. Exchange the batteries or rechargeable batteries for new ones.
When the drive battery is nearly empty, the vehicle will slow down and may not respond properly to the
remote control.
In addition to powering the engine via the speed controller, the drive battery also generates the neces-
sary voltage/current for the receiver and the steering servo.
This voltage is generated via an integrated BEC ("battery eliminator circuit", an electronic circuit that
supplies voltage directly to the receiver without an additional receiver rechargeable battery).
If the battery voltage is too low, the receiver voltage may drop and the vehicle may not respond to remote
control commands.
If this occurs, stop driving the vehicle immediately (switch off the speed controller, disconnect the battery
from the vehicle and switch off the remote control). Replace/recharge the drive battery as necessary.
• The engine, drive, speed controller and drive battery heat up during use. Take a break of at least 5–10
minutes before changing the rechargeable battery.
• Allow the drive battery to cool down completely before charging.
• Do not touch the engine, the speed controller or the rechargeable battery until they have cooled down.
Risk of burns!
