B) Operation - ModelCraft 23 10 21 Bedienungsanleitung

• Do not leave packaging material unattended. It may become dangerous playing material for
children!
• Each time before you use the model, please check the functional safety of your model and
of the remote control system. Pay attention to visible damages such as broken plug-in
connections or damaged cables. All movable parts on the model have to be smooth-run-
ning, but there must be no tolerance in the bearing.
• Should technical questions arise that are not answered with the help of these operating
instructions, please contact us (for contact information, see Section 1) or ask an expert.
The operation and the handling of RC models must be learned! If you have never steered
such a model, start especially carefully and get used to the reactions of the model to the
remote control commands first. Be patient!

b) Operation

• If you do not yet have sufficient knowledge on how to deal with remote-controlled models,
please contact an experienced model sportsman or a model construction club.
• Each time before you use the product, make sure that there are no other models operated
within the same range of frequency or channel as your own remote control. You might lose
the control over RC vehicles! Always use different frequencies/channels.
• When putting the device into operation always turn on the transmitter first. Do not switch
on the receiver in the model before. Otherwise, the model car can show unpredictable
reactions. Always pull out the telescopic antenna of the transmitter entirely.
• Before operating the model, check whether the stationary model reacts as expected to the
commands of the remote control.
• When you operate the model, always make sure that no parts of your body, nor other
people or objects come within the dangerous range of the motors or any other rotating drive
parts.
• Improper operation can cause serious damage to people and property! Always make sure
that you have a direct eye contact with the model and never operate it at night.
• Do not operate your model if your ability to respond is restricted. The influence of tiredness,
alcohol or medicine can cause incorrect responses.
• Operate your model in an area where you do not endanger other people, animals or objects.
Only operate it on private premises or places which are specifically designated for this pur-
pose.
• In case of a fault, stop operating your model straight away and remove the cause of mal-
function before you continue to use the model.
• Do not operate your RC system during thunderstorms, under high-voltage power lines or in
the proximity of radio masts.
• Always leave the remote control (transmitter) turned on, as long as the model is in opera-
tion. For turning the model off, always switch off the motor first, and then switch off the
receiver system. Only then can the remote control transmitter be turned off.
• Protect your model and the remote control from dampness and bad mudding.
• Do not expose your model and the remote control to direct sunlight or excessive heat for a
longer period of time.
