2. CHARGING YOUR VEHICLE
Charge your vehicle's battery pack. Connect the charger in the box to your battery pack(it will only plug
in one direction) and then plug the charger into a standard wall outlet. Charging takes approximately
2-3 hours. When the battery is fully charged, unplug the charger and connect the battery to your
speed control.
Your vehicle charger will safely charge your battery pack and not over charge it. Be careful when using
after market chargers that you do not overcharge the battery pack and ruin it. By the way, this chargeris
only for the vehicle, not for the radio control.
3. ASSEMBLING THE ANTENNA
Locate the plastic antenna tube.
Run the antenna wire up through the rear antenna mount hole in the upper chassis plate and begin
feeding it into the plastic antenna tube until it comes out the other side. Pull the remaining wire through
the tube, and then press the tube into the antenna mount in the upper chassis plate. Bend the antenna
wire down around the tube and install the black rubber antenna cap on the top of the tube. You may then
wrap the remaining wire arount the tube. DO NOT cut the antenna wire off! This could shorten the range
of your radio system.
Special Instruction About Batteries
Contents:
1. Keep batteries/storage batteries out of reach of children.
2. Do not let batteries lie around openly, There is a risk of batteries being swallowed by children or pets.
In such case, seek instant medical care!
3. Batteries/Rechargeable batteries must never be short-circuited, taken apart or thown into fire.They
might explode!
4. Leaking or damage batteries/rechargeable batteries might cause acid burns when getting into contact
with skin. Therefore, use suitable protective gloves.
5. Conventional batteries must not be recharged. Danger of fire and explosion! Only charge rechargeable
batteries which are intended for this purpose, use suitable rechargeable battery chargers.
6. Pls observe correct polarity of batteries/rechargeable batteries and the connection of a re-chargeable
battery pack(note plus/+ and minus/-) when inserting the batteries.
7. If the device is not used for a longer period of time (eg storage), take out the inserted batteries/
rechargeable batteries of the remote control to avoid damage from leaking batteries/rechargeable
batteries.
Recharge the rechargeable battery about every 3 months, because otherwise there may a so called
deep discharge because of the self discharge, which makes the rechargeable batteries useless.
8. Always exchange the entire set of batteries or rechargeable batteries, Do not mix full batteries/
rechargeable betteries with half-full ones. Always use batteries or rechargeable batteries of the same
type and manufacturer.
9. Never mix batteries and storage batteries. Either use eight batteries or eight rechargeable batteries
for the remote control/transmitter.
Please Note:
Before the rechargeable battery pack delivery its maximum power, several complete dis-charge and
charge cycles are necessary
Always drive the rechargeable battery pack empty, since recharging a "half - full" rechargeable battery
pack can cause a so called memory effect. That means that the rechargeable battery pack loses its
capacity, it no longer releases all of its saved energy, drive time is decreased.
If you are using several rechargeable battery packs or rechargeable batteries, purchasing a high quality
charger maybe worthwhile.
They are normally also suitable for fast charging of rechargeable batteries.
