B
casting masts or during a storm! Atmospheric disturbances can affect the
operation of the vehicle. When there a large temperature differences be-

cle has had time to acclimatise. This will help prevent conden sation form-
ing and the possibility of malfunctions resulting.
Never operate the product on grass surfaces. There is the risk of grass
C
hindering the movement of the axles, which can lead to the motor over-
heating. Do not use the Carrera RC vehicle for transporting goods, per-

electronics in the car overheating, when temperatures are above 35 ° C,
regular short pauses in operation are essential.
Never subject the Carrera car to repeated changes of load – that means
G
continuously reversing it.

If the Carrera RC vehicle is found to pull towards the left or right while
moving, use the adjuster control shown in the illustration to adjust the car's
track precision.
Let's practise!
Warning! This vehicle reaches high speeds! Practice on an empty
7
surface at least 2.5 metres (8.2') square. 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
8
large 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 over to new batteries, an operating pause of at least
ten minutes is essential.
• Avoid constant motor operation.
• If the vehicle switches itself off several times in quick succession, the
batteries are discharged. Please insert new batteries.
• To switch off after use, follow the steps in the reverse order.
• Please always store the batteries away from the vehicle.
• Clean the Carrera RC car after use.
