STEP 4 : RECHARGING THE BATTERY

After playing for approximately 20 minutes, the performance of your toy will decrease. It is time to charge your Battery Pack. Please follow the recharging instructions included with your Battery Pack and Charger. If the battery is warm, please allow up to twenty minutes for it to cool before recharging.

OPERATIONAL TIPS AND HELPFUL HINTS

- Stretch and retract the antenna slowly and avoid using brute force.

- Please make sure the handset is turned "ON" before turning the craft "ON" or "OFF."

- Make sure the battery door of the craft has screwed shut securely before playing.

- The craft has a built-in smart sensor and it can operate only on water.

- Make sure to turn the craft "OFF" before taking it out of the water.

- If the craft is getting too far away from you, the Automatic Retrieval System (ARS) will transform the craft to Stealth Mode and navigate in a circular path. Move the handset closer to the craft to re-establish signal connection.

- This toy is designed to run on fresh water with little current, please do not play on the sea.

- Do not operate during thunderstorms.

- When your toy starts to lose power, it may experience loss of functions or performance. If this happens, simply recharge your Battery Pack again and/or replace the Handset battery.

- The toy is operated by radio waves. It is possible the unit may not perform properly due to interference from nearby devices such as a cordless phone, hair dryer, radio, walkie-talkie or other radio-controlled toys.

- Avoid sand and snow when operating your toy.

- Do not submerge the toy or the handset in water.

- Always select a safe place to play.

- Keep fingers, hair and loose clothing away from the propellers while the vehicle is switched "ON."

- Please drain the water and clean the toy with a clean, dry cloth after playing.

- If the toy or the battery is low on power, the craft will stop running.

- Do not get your rechargeable battery wet. If you do, dry it immediately.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

1. If your toy responds slowly or fails to operate:

- Make sure the batteries in both the Handset and toy are installed properly.

- Recharge your Battery Pack and/or replace the Handset battery.

- Make sure both the toy and the handset are turned "ON."

- Make sure the Battery Contacts have not become dirty. If they have, simply brush them with a dry

cloth.

- Move the remote control handset closer to your toy to determine the best communication

between the remote handset and the toy.

2. Upon extensive playing, the protective circuitry may shut down the craft automatically to avoid

overheating. It is recommended to allow the craft to cool down for at least 20 minutes before restarting. In case you really need to control the craft back, to avoid being washed away, before resting, please restart the homing signal after one minute.
