I. BATTERY INSTALLATION
Transmitter & Vehicle
Use a screwdriver (not included) to open
battery door. Install 4 AA alkaline batteries with polarity (+/-) as shown inside battery compartment. Close battery door and tighten screw.
Push transmitter battery door open. Install 1
9V battery with polarity (+/-) as shown inside battery compartment. Close battery door.
Your antenna makes a carry loop! Insert it
into the holder as shown. Clip it to your belt...or to the bumper of your R/C vehicle for storage.
Be sure to remove the antenna from the holder before operating the trans­mitter. The antenna should be fully extended for best results.
II. OPERATION

III. COOL “GAS ENGINE” SOUNDS
ON SOUND BUTTONOFF
Your vehicle features a special “gas engine” sound feature. When you turn the vehicle ON, you’ll hear a cool “idle” sound. Push the left transmitter button forward. You’ll hear the “engine” build up the “RPMs” - just like a real go-kart - and then your vehicle will drive for­ward. Listen for the cool “ratcheting gear” sounds as the engine “shifts” into high gear. Release the transmitter buttons and the “engine” will drop back down to “idle.”
To save battery power, the “idle” sound will cut off automatically after a brief period. You’ll still be able to drive and control your vehicle by pushing the transmitter buttons. To turn the “idle” sound back on, just turn the vehicle OFF and ON again.
When the vehicle is switched ON, you can push the “sound” button anytime to hear the cool “engine” sounds!
IV. BATTERY INFORMATION
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 supervision (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 (carbon­zinc) 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.
V. QUICK TIPS
When your vehicle starts to lose power, it
may lose functions or performance. It's time for fresh batteries. Your vehicle's running time may change depending on your driving style.
Radio 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. Try to stay away from these!
Point your transmitter up - not down toward
your vehicle. If your vehicle gets too far away, it won't work properly.
Don't drive your vehicle in sand or through
water or snow. If your vehicle does get wet, wipe with a towel and allow to dry complete­ly.
Don’t store your vehicle near heat or in direct
sunlight. Always turn switches OFF and remove all batteries for storage.
