Proceed as follows:
– Before connecting the drive battery, place the vehicle on a suitable support so that all wheels can move freely.
– Switch on the transmitter, if you have not already done so. Check that it functions correctly (e.g. power indica-
tor on the transmitter).
– Set the trim for the drive and steering functions on the transmitter to the middle position.
– Connect the fully charged drive battery to the vehicle. The plug is protected from reverse polarity, do not use
force when connecting.
– Switch the vehicle on.
– Check that the vehicle responds to the remote control commands as expected (steering and drive) before
removing it from the support and placing the wheels on the ground.
– If the drive does not perform as expected, follow the instructions in section 20.
9.3 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 react.
This model vehicle 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 at very low outdoor temperatures. Plastic parts lose their elasticity at 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.
Do not drive the vehicle in the rain or through wet grass, water, mud or snow. The model is not waterproof or
watertight. Moisture not only causes corrosion but also damages the electronics.
Always leave the transmitter turned on when the vehicle is in use.
When you have finished using the vehicle, switch off the speed controller and fully disconnect the drive battery
from the speed controller. Then turn off the transmitter.
The transmitter range decreases as the batteries/rechargeable batteries get weaker. Replace the used batteries/
rechargeable batteries with new ones.
When the drive battery is nearly empty, the vehicle will slow down and may not respond properly to the transmitter.
In addition to powering the motor via the speed controller, the drive battery also generates the necessary volt-
age/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 drive battery voltage is too low, the receiver voltage may drop and the vehicle may not respond to transmit-
ter commands. If this occurs, stop driving the vehicle immediately (switch off the speed controller, disconnect the
drive battery from the vehicle and switch off the transmitter). Then replace or charge the drive battery completely
as necessary.
The motor, 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. Likewise, allow the drive battery to cool down
after charging before operating the vehicle. You must also heed the operating instructions for the charger you are
using.
Do not touch the motor, speed controller and drive batteries until they have cooled down. Burn hazard!
