TRANSMITTER BATTERY INSTALLATION
NOTE: Your transmitter is equipped with a special automatic
ON battery-saving feature. Just turn your vehicle ON. Then
push either transmitter stick and you will be able to run and
control your vehicle.
Some transmitters include a sound feature. The sound feature can
be deactivated by turning the sound switch to the OFF position.
1. To install transmitter battery, open battery door as shown.
2. Install one 9V battery with polarity (+/-) as shown inside battery
compartment.
3. Swing battery door closed and snap shut.
If your vehicle was supplied with a battery pack and charger,
please follow the specific instructions on the next page for
detailed information regarding NiCd vehicle battery charging
and safety. If your vehicle was not supplied with a battery pack
and charger, please follow the specific instructions that came
with your battery pack and charger.
VEHICLE BATTERY INSTALLATION

BATTERY CHARGING/CARE –
6.0V JET TURBO®BATTERY
1. Plug wall pack charger into standard
wall outlet.
2. Click the battery pack into the charger.
Make certain the battery pack is
secure in charger.
3. To disconnect, push the red button on
the side of charger and simultaneously
slide battery pack out.
4. After charging, the battery will feel
warm. This condition is normal for fully
charged batteries.
5. New battery packs must be charged
for 10 hours the first two times
charged. Subsequent charges will
require 6 hours. Charging the battery
pack for more than 6 hours will not give
you a longer running time. 6 hours is all
that is required for a fully charged battery pack.
6. Unlike alkaline batteries, where the
power loss is gradual, a NiCd (NickelCadmium) battery will run for its normal
running time and then lose most of its
power at once. It is time to recharge
the battery pack.
7. 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.
RECHARGEABLE BATTERY INFORMATION:
DO NOT RECHARGE BATTERY PACK
IF IT’S HOT. ALLOW IT TO COOL
BEFORE RECHARGING.
DO NOT RECHARGE A BATTERY PACK
THAT SHOWS LEAKAGE OR CORROSION.
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE THE BAT-
TERY PACK. THE BATTERY PACK IS A
SEALED RECHARGEABLE NICKELCADMIUM BATTERY.
DO NOT DISPOSE OF THE BATTERY
PACK IN FIRE.
EXERCISE CAUTION IN HANDLING A
HOT BATTERY PACK.
IF BATTERY PACK AND/OR CHARGER
ARE WET, THOROUGHLY DRY BEFORE
CHARGING.
DO NOT RECHARGE NON-
RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES.
DO NOT USE THE POWER CLIP WITH
THE 6.0V JET TURBO CHARGER.
Note to Adults:
• Remove rechargeable batteries before
recharging. Recharge batteries only
under adult supervision.
• Regularly examine for damage to the
plug, enclosure and other parts. In the
event of any damage, the toy must not
be used with the transformer until the
damage has been repaired.
• This toy is not intended for children
under 6 years old. The transformer is
not a toy.

SAFETY INFORMATION
Note to Adults: To ensure that the child’s
play is both safe and fun, please review all
operating instructions and safety rules with
your child.
Safety Tips
• NEVER drive your vehicle on streets!
They’re for real cars!
• DO NOT pick up vehicle while in motion.
• Keep fingers, hair and loose clothing
away from the tires and the wheel hubs
while the vehicle is switched ON.
• Adult supervision is recommended when
this vehicle is being operated.
• To avoid accidental operation, remove all
batteries when not in use.
BATTERY SAFETY INFORMATION
Insure that battery polarity is correct.
Use only batteries of the type recommended
(or equivalent).
Do not mix old and new batteries.
Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc), or
rechargeable (nickel-cadmium) batteries.
Remove used-up batteries immediately.
Remove batteries if vehicle will not be used
for a long period.
Do not recharge non-rechargeable batteries.
Do not short-circuit terminals.
Remove rechargeable batteries before
recharging (if the batteries are designed to be
removable).
Recharge batteries only under adult supervi-
sion (if the batteries are designed to be
removable).
Dispose of batteries safely. Do not dispose of
batteries (or products containing non-replaceable batteries) in fire, as batteries may
explode or leak.
Battery Performance Note:
For best performance use alkaline batteries
(where disposable batteries are called for). If
your vehicle is supplied with standard (carbon-zinc) batteries for initial use and/or
demonstration purposes, we recommend
replacing them with alkaline batteries when
necessary. Battery life may vary depending on
battery brand.
QUICK TIPS
❶When your vehicle starts to lose power, it may
lose functions or performance. It's time for
fresh batteries (or a recharge). Your vehicle's
running time may change depending on your
driving style.
❷Radio interference can make your vehicle run
badly. Interference can be caused by other
R/C vehicles running on the same frequency;
electrical wires; large buildings; or CB radios.
T ry to stay away from these!
❸ Point your transmitter antenna up - not down
toward your vehicle. If your vehicle gets too far
away, it won't work properly.
❹Don’t drive your vehicle in sand or through
water or snow.
❺Don’t store your vehicle near heat or in direct
sunlight. Always turn switches OFF and remove
all batteries for storage.
SYMPTOM
Vehicle runs slowly or will not run.
Power indicator light on transmitter does not light.
Erratic operation or only short range possible.
Vehicle doesn’t work after going through water or
snow.
• PROBABLE CAUSE
• Loose battery connection or vehicle switch not ON.
• Weak or uncharged rechargeable NiCd battery (if
applicable).
• Weak AA batteries (Power Clip) or
transmitter battery.
• Transmitter battery weak or not connected.
• Radio interference likely.
• Water in the electronics area.
• CORRECTION
• Check battery connector and vehicle switch.
• Charge battery or replace.
• Replace with fresh alkaline battery.
• Check connections and replace battery if required.
• Recharge vehicle battery.
• Vehicle will take several hours to dry. Allow to dry
thoroughly overnight before trying again.
• Avoid driving in water or snow.
