Battery Guidelines - LiteHawk RANGER Instruction Manual

Battery Guidelines:

-The battery can be re-charged many times, however over time the battery will lose its
ability to take or hold a charge. At this point the battery will need to be properly recy-
cled.
- Do not store or leave batteries in areas with extreme heat or cold. Batteries should be
left and stored at room temperature.
- Always have the battery unplugged from the toy or charger when not being used.
- Do not submerge batteries under water. Always wipe off any water with a clean towel
or rag.
- It is best to store the battery out of the toy and on a non-flammable surface.
Before you drive:
Before every use it's recommended to check that the fans are moving freely and nothing
is caught in the blades. Next ensure that the model and the transmitter are working cor-
rectly. Before you drive your model, range test the radio system to ensure that it operates
properly! Turn on the transmitter and then the model, check its operating as it should.
Walk away from the model giving steering input with the radio until you reach the maxi-
mum distance you are planning to drive your model. If you lose input control walk back
towards the model. You now know the safe operating distance for your immediate environ-
ment. Do not attempt to operate the model if there is any problem with the radio sys-
tem/external interference with your radio signal at your location.
- Avoid areas where its movement will be restricted, e.g.thick grass, weeds, mud, sand,
carpet, this can over result in low performance.
- Ensure nothing prevents the smooth running of the moving parts.
- Never run your model in a public space where it might upset or endanger people or wild-
life.
- Immediately discontinue use of your vehicle and transmitter if you see lightning or hear
thunder. Never use your vehicle in the rain.
