Troubleshooting - Carrera RC Ford F-150 Raptor blue Montage- Und Betriebsanleitung

Always place the car on the floor by hand. Never throw the car on the floor
I
from a standing position.
Avoid jumping from jumps or ramps higher than 5 cm (0.16 ft.).
K
Never use strong solvents for cleaning the car.

To avoid malfunctions to the control system resulting in uncontrolled oper-
M
ation of the Carrera RC vehicle, check that the controller batteries and the
rechargeable batteries in the vehicle have sufficient charge. Supply termi-
nals are not to be short-circuited.
The Carrera RC vehicle must be inspected before and after operation, each
N
time it is used, to ensure that it has not become disassembled. Any screws
or nuts that may have become loosened during operation must be tightened.

1 x Controller
1 x Battery Charger
1 x Rechargeable Battery
2 x 1.5 V Micro AAA batteries (non-rechargeable)
Charging the rechargeable battery
First connect the Carrera RC rechargeable battery to the battery charger
2
supplied. The connection terminals between the battery and the charger
are designed to prevent connection with the wrong polarity. Connect the
charger to a power source. When the battery is properly connected and charg-
ing normally, the red LED is constantly lit. Once the battery is fully charged, the
red LED switches to green. The battery can now be disconnected and in-
stalled in the Carrera RC car. The car is now ready for use.
Always recharge the battery after use to prevent its becoming deep dis-
charged. After use, the battery must be allowed to cool down for at least
20 minutes before it can be fully recharged. Failure to observe thispause
may damage the battery. Recharge the battery occasionally (suggested
every 2–3 months). Failure to treat the battery as described above can
lead to its becoming defective.
Installing the rechargeable battery
Using a screwdriver, remove the cover of the battery compartment in the
3
Carrera RC car. Connect the end of the cable from the Carrera RC vehicle
with the charged battery. Put the battery in place. Replace the compartment cov-
er using a screwdriver.
Inserting the batteries
Open the battery compartment with a screwdriver and insert the batteries
4
in the remote control. Please keep in mind the correct polarity. Different
types of batteries or new and used batteries are not to be mixed. After having
closed the compartment you can check all functions of the remote control with
the help of the power-switch on the front. With the power-switch turned ON and
proper functioning, the top center LED on the remote control will light up red.
Now you can drive the car
Bonding vehicle and controller
The Carrera RC car and the remote control are bound as a factory setting.
5
1. Switch the car ON at the ON/OFF switch. The LED on top of the car will
6
flash rhythmically.
2. Switch on the controller. The LED on top of the controller will flash
7
rhythmically.
After a few seconds, the LEDs on the car and on the controller will light con-
tinuously, meaning the bind has been made.
Adjusting the steering
If when using the Carrera RC vehicle, it starts to pull to right or left, it can be
8
corrected to run straight as follows.
• Bond vehicle and controller as described in section
• Slide the ON/OFF switch fully to the right to the position "TRIM". Adjusting
mode is active as soon as the controller LED flashes.
• Straight running can be adjusted with the controller wheel by turning it to the
right or left.
• Slide the ON/OFF switch back to the position "ON".
Let's practise!
Warning! This vehicle reaches speeds up to 18 - 20 km/h (11 - 13
9
mph). Practice on an empty surface at least 4 x 5 metres (13.12' x 16.4').
When first starting, be very careful when operating the gas pedal.
Now it's time to practise! Set up a Carrera RC vehicle racing track in a large
10
empty area, using cornerposts, empty cans, or similar objects. The basic
technique to adopt when operating a Carrera RC is to drive fast on the straight
sections and to slow down in the curves.
• When changing from the first battery to the second battery, you must
stop running for at least ten minutes. At the next change, a pause of at
least 20 minutes is absolutely essential.
• Avoid constant motor operation.
• If the car switches itself off several times one after another, the battery
is dead. Please recharge the battery.
• Within approx. 30 minutes of inactivity, the controller and vehicle
switch off automatically. To restart, switch the ON/OFF switch on the
controller & the car to OFF and then back to ON.
• To switch off after use, follow the steps in the reverse order.
• After use, remove or disconnect the battery. Always recharge the bat-
tery after use to prevent its becoming deep discharged. After use, the
battery must be allowed to cool down for at least 20 minutes before it
can be fully recharged.
• Always keep the rechargeable battery stored outside the vehicle.
• Clean the Carrera RC car after use.
Controller functions – DIGITAL PROPORTIONAL
360° continuous driving and steering. When the controller is switched on,
11
the red LED lamps at the front of the controller are lit.
Gas pedal to the rear: forwards
Gas pedal to the front: braking, or backwards
Turn the steering wheel clockwise: right
Turn the steering wheel anti-clockwise: left
Thanks to 2.4 GHz technology, up to 16 cars can be run together on one
12
race-track. This is possible even without harmonising frequencies be-
tween the racing drivers.
