g) Inserting the Drive Battery in the Vehicle
Attention!
The drive battery must not be connected to the speed controller yet. First, start the transmitter.
This vehicle is suitable only for use with a NiMH drive battery with 6 cells (nominal voltage of drive battery
7.2 V) or LiPo drive battery with 2 cells (nominal voltage of drive battery 7.4 V).
When using a drive battery with more cells, there is a danger of fire from overheating of the motor. Apart
from this, the vehicle's drive will be overloaded and damaged (e.g. differential). Loss of guarantee/warranty!
Important: If you are using a LiPo drive battery, the speed controller used must have undervoltage recognition
with switch-off function. Deep discharge damages LiPo batteries!
Loosen the two hook-and-loop tapes at the battery holder. Place the drive battery into the battery holder and fasten it
with the two hook-and-loop tapes. Tighten the hook-and-loop tapes so that the drive battery cannot move in the battery
holder.

h) Connecting the Drive Battery to the Speed Controller

Switch off the speed controller.
Then switch on the transmitter, see chapter 8. f).
To prevent sudden start-up of the wheels and therefore uncontrolled starting of the model (e.g. if the
trimming for the drive is maladjusted), place the model vehicle on a suitable support (or starting box), so
that the wheels can turn freely in case of an error.
Do not reach into the drive. Do not hold the wheels.
Now connect the drive battery to the speed controller. Ensure correct polarity (red cable = plus/+, black cable =
minus/-).

i) Switching on the Speed Controller

Switch on the speed controller.
Depending on the speed controller you use, you may now have to programme the neutral and full throttle positions for
forwards and reverse driving.
For this, observe the operating instructions of your speed controller.
If the vehicle drive starts although the throttle/brake on the transmitter is in the neutral position, then adjust
the trim on the transmitter until the motor stops.
Now check the drive and steering functions of the vehicle.
