BATTERY CARE
Some precautions should be taken to maintain the performance of the
rechargeable NiMH receiver pack in your model. Improper use of the
battery pack could result in personal injury or damage to your truck.
• Only use approved chargers for NiMH battery packs (such as the
Traxxas EZ-Peak Plus, part #2933). Do not exceed the maximum
charge rate of 1 amp.
• Do not short-circuit the battery pack. This may cause burns and
severe damage to the battery pack
• Do not burn or puncture the batteries. Toxic materials could be
released. If eye or skin contact occurs, flush with water.
• Store the battery pack in a dry location, away from heat sources
and direct sunlight.
• NiMH batteries must be recycled or disposed
of properly.
• Do not completely discharge the RX Power Pack or you could
damage it. Do not use dischargers on the pack. Store the battery
with at least 25% charge. Stop running and recharge at the first
indication of reduced voltage.
• After connecting a fully-drained battery to the charger, it may take
up to 15 seconds for the charger to sense the battery and begin to
charge. To start charging immediately, plug the battery pack into
the charger and then plug the charger into the wall socket.

RADIO SYSTEM RULES
• Always turn your TQi transmitter on first and off last. This
procedure will help to prevent your model from receiving stray
signals from another transmitter, or other source, and running out
of control. Your model has electronic fail-safes to prevent this type
of malfunction, but the first, best defense against a runaway model
is to always turn the transmitter on first, and off last.
• In order for the transmitter and receiver to bind to one another,
the receiver in the model must be turned on within 20 seconds
of turning on the transmitter. The transmitter LED will flash fast
red indicating a failure to link. If you miss it, simply turn off the
transmitter and start over.
• Always have the transmitter and receiver turned on before you
start the engine. Never turn the radio system off while the engine
is running. The on/off switch in the model only turns the receiver
on and off. It does not turn off the engine.
Always use new or freshly charged batteries for the radio system.
•
Weak batteries will limit the radio signal between the receiver
and the transmitter.
Loss of the radio signal can cause you to lose
control of your model.

Automatic Failsafe
The TQi transmitter and
receiver are equipped with
an automatic failsafe system
that does not require user
programming. In the event
of signal loss or interference,
the throttle will return to
neutral and the steering will
hold its last commanded
position. If failsafe activates
while you are operating
your model, determine the
reason for signal loss and
resolve the problem before
operating your model again.
