Your vehicle will not operate without the TYCO® R/C
9.6V Turbo Rechargeable NiCd Battery Pack and Charger
(Stock No. 32997). Not included.
■ This economical rechargeable system is the only
battery pack and charger made to power your Tyco
R/C 9.6V Turbo vehicle.
■ Inferior quality battery packs will shorten running
time and may void the warranty.
1. Plug wall pack charger into standard wall outlet.
2. Connect the wires leading from the battery pack to
the wall pack charger connector. Make certain the
two connectors are tightly snapped together.
3. To disconnect wires, push down on the connector clip
and pull apart.
4. Your battery pack consists of new parts and materials;
therefore, you should charge the battery pack for 5 1/2
hours the first two times you charge the battery.
Subsequent charges will require only 4 hours.
5. After charging for 4 hours, the battery will feel warm.
This condition is normal for fully charged batteries.
6. Charging the battery pack for more than 4 hours will
not give you a longer running time. 4 hours is all that
is required for a fully charged battery pack.
7. Unlike alkaline batteries, where the power loss is
gradual, a NiCd (Nickel-Cadmium) battery will run
for its normal running time, depending on your
particular vehicle, and then lose most of its power at
once. It is time to recharge the battery pack. Running
time will be between 20-30 minutes.
8. After use, the battery pack will be hot! Wait at least 20
minutes until the battery pack cools before recharging.
Recharging a warm or hot battery pack will greatly reduce
the number of times your battery pack can be recharged.
Cautions:
■DO NOT RECHARGE BATTERY PACK IF IT’S HOT. ALLOW IT TO COOL BEFORE RECHARGING.
■DO NOT RECHARGE A BATTERY PACK THATSHOWS LEAKAGE OR CORROSION.
