1. Choose a fuel from a reputable, brand name company t hat is approved for car/truck use. Do not use airplane or boat fuels in your car/truck. Never use gasoline in a glow model engine

2. Fuel color is for identification purpose only and is not important to performance or durability of your engine.

3. Always store fuel in a well ventilated place, away from heating devices, open flames, direct sunlight, or batteries. Keep glow fuel away from children. Always keep your fuel bottle closed when not in use.

4. Do not dispose of fuel or empty fuel containers in a fire. It may possibly cause fire or explosion.

請選擇具品牌知名度且經過認可、標準的遙控車專用燃油。模型專用燃油以甲醇為主，內含硝基甲烷10％~30％，合成或半合成潤滑油約5％~18％，一般車用燃油建議以含20％硝基甲烷比例的燃油，較為適中。請勿使用一般汽車用燃油於模型專用引擎上。

燃油的顏色主要是辨識用，對於引擎的性能及耐久性並無影響。

儲存燃油時請置放於通風良好的地方,遠離熱源、高溫電器用品或蓄電池,並儘量避免陽光直射。燃油不用時請儲藏於幼兒無法接觸之處並請隨時關緊瓶蓋。

勿將燃油及燃油空瓶接近火源，高溫可能會引起爆炸起火的危險。

1. For proper engine break-in procedure, please refer to the

manual of your engine.

2. Never run your vehicle without the air filter .If the vehicle will be operated in an area with fine dust, use filter oil or caster oil on the air filter element. It is important that the foam is only moist to trap dirt and allow air passage. With the foam too wet, limited air can pass through; therefore, limiting engine performance.

3. The parts around engine could be dangerously hot after operation. Do not touch it without any protection!

引擎的磨合步驟，請參考引擎手冊。

引擎沒裝空氣濾清器，請勿發動引擎。在有粉塵的場地操作車輛時，空氣濾清器棉需加入空氣濾清器油或篦麻油，用以吸附粉塵。空濾油加入空濾棉中需適量。太多，會影響引擎進氣效率，引擎性能會受到限制。太少，粉塵容易進入引擎內部，造成損壞。

車輛操作過後，引擎及排氣管的溫度很高，請勿接觸這些危險部位。

1. Choose the right place to operate your R/C model. Do not run on public streets or highways. This could cause serious accidents, personal injuries, and/or property damage. Never run R/C models near people or animals. To avoid injury, do not run in confined spaces. Do not run where loud noises can disturb others, such as hospitals and residential areas. Never run indoors. There is a high risk of fire and/or damage.

2. Inspect your model before operation. Make sure all the screws are properly tightened and all the parts are checked after running the car for a long period of time. Always use fresh batteries for your transmitter and for your receiver to avoid losing control of the model. Always test the brakes and the throttle before starting your engine to avoid losing control of the model.

3. Check your radio frequency with the proper operating frequency of the area or country. Always check to see if there are any modelers operating on the same frequency as you

rs. Also, check your radio for proper operation before operating a model.

4. Do not touch any part of the model that rotates.

請勿於雨天、公眾空間、道路、機場附近與其他限制遙控模型活動區域，操控本項產品。

車輛操作前，請檢查電池電量是否充足，巡檢車輛上之所有螺絲是否鎖緊，零件是否鬆動，並測試煞車及油門裝置是否正常以免發生失控情形。

請您確認您所在地區對於頻率規定之相關法規，來選用適當的頻率。避免與其他同好使用相同頻率造成失控事件。

請勿將手指或任何物品接觸正在轉動的裝置。

1. If you drink nitro fuel by accident, immediately drink large quantities of water and try to induce vomiting. Consult with physician right after then.

2. If the nitro fuel gets into your eyes, rinse them well with water. Consult wi

th physician right after then.

3. If the fuel gets onto your skin, wash it well with soap and water.

如果您誤食燃油，請立即喝下大量的水稀釋且立即催吐，並立即送醫檢查。

如果眼睛不慎接觸到燃油，請立即以清水沖洗，並送醫檢查。

如果燃油接觸到皮膚，請以肥皂及清水洗淨。

TOOLS INCLUDED

a. Plug the charger into an AC outlet, and then pull on the igniter lever to accept the charging adapter. b. At this point, the small red LED indicator on the charger should light up indicating the charging sequence is in progress. c. When the charging complete, pull on the glow plug igniter lever to unplug the glow igniter. Charge the new glow plug igniter for

16 to 24 hours on the first charge. For subsequent charges, charge it about 12 hours before next use.

NOTE:

If the igniter gets warm or hot during the charge, unplug the igniter from charger immediately. A warm / hot igniter means the igniter is overcharged. Overcharging can damage the internal battery in the igniter; thus, shortening its life.

a. 將充電器插入家用110V插座中，再接上電夾 b. 充電過程中，紅色LED燈會保持亮的狀態，如不亮表示為短路，電池無法充電 c. 充電完成，將充電器自插座拔下，再分開電夾；新電夾首次充電時間需16到20小時，之後只需充大約12小時即可

注意：充電過程中，電夾電池如出現高溫現象(40~45° C)，表示已過度充電，需立即停止充電。過度充電容易造成電池損壞，更可能產生爆炸起火，請謹慎使用。

CHARGING THE GLOW PLUG IGNITER 電夾充電方式

a b c

a. Contents of the box are secured with reusable zip-ties. To unlock zip-tie, press on the small lever. b. Pull on the zip-tie while keeping the small lever pressed. Pull the zip-tie out completely.

束帶為可活動拆卸式，操作方式如圖示

UNWRAPPING CONTENTS FROM BOX 束帶的使用

a b

Pull out

a. Check the frequency printed on the transmitter crystal. b.

Remove the radio receiver from box. Check the frequency printed on the receiver crystal, and make sure it matches with the transmitter crystal. Make sure no one will operate on the same frequency when you are. When there is a radio glitch, it will most likely be caused by improper crystal, damaged crystal, or people operating on the same frequency. Ensure all wires are securely connected to the receiver:

steering servo connector plug - into the channel 1 slot 連接孔1 (CH1)—轉向伺服機 throttle servo connector plug - into the channel 2 slot 連接孔2 (CH2)—油門伺服機 battery switch connector plug - into battery slot. 電池連接孔 (BATT)—接收機電池

Then thread the receiver antenna/wire through the antenna mount. Thread the receiver antenna/wire all the way through the antenna tube and install the antenna tube onto the mount. After checking, place the receiver back in the box and secure the receiver box top.

c. Install the antenna into transmitter.

檢查發射機頻率。

檢查接收機晶體頻率，確認發射機與接收機頻率是否相同。大部份搖控器會失靈可能都是頻率造成或附近有人使用相同的操控頻率。並確認所有的電子接線都牢固，且依序連結在接收機的連結插孔，確認完畢後，將接收機放回接收機盒並且安全的固定好。

裝上發射機天線。
