• Driving your truck for long periods of time can generate a high heat level, which causes wear and tear on the motor. To help keep heat levels down, when your vehicle’s battery power dies, let it cool for at least 10 minutes before installing new batteries.

• Do not touch the motor immediately after using the truck, as it may become hot during use.

• If your truck’s motor runs, but does not respond to the transmitter, move closer to the vehicle and try again.

• If someone uses a CB nearby, it might interfere with the control of your truck. If this happens, move the vehicle away from the CB.

• You cannot operate your truck near devices with transmitters that use the same frequency as your vehicle (27 MHz or 49 MHz). Check the box to see which frequency you have.

• If the truck moves slowly, or not at all, and you have installed new batteries, check the wheel mechanism for lint, dust, hair or thread.

• When the transmitter’s range decreases, replace its battery.

• The truck might make a popping or grinding noise when you slide the gear control switch. This is normal.

• Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury batteries.

• Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.

• Do not use batteries of different types capacities, or chemistry.

• If you do not plan to use the toy for several days, remove the batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals that can damage electronic parts.

• Batteries purchased for use in this toy may pose hazard to children. Please check the safety notice supplied with batteries before use.

• Do not recharge a battery pack immediately after use (while it is still hot). Allow it to cool ﬁ rst.

• Do not overcharge the battery. Overcharging the battery pack might damage it.

• Do not charge the battery pack while it is still in the truck.

• Make sure the battery compartment cover is secure before driving the truck.
