Let's practise!
Warning! This vehicle reaches high
7
speeds! Practice on an empty surface at
least 2.5 metres (8.2') square. When first
starting, be very careful when operating
the gas pedal.
8 Now it's time to practise! Set up a Carrera
RC vehicle racing track in a large empty area,
using cornerposts, empty cans, or similar ob-
jects. The basic technique to adopt when op-
erating a Carrera RC is to drive fast on the
straight sections and to slow down in the
curves.
• When changing over to new batteries, an
operating pause of at least ten minutes
is essential.
• Avoid constant motor operation.
• If the vehicle switches itself off several
times in quick succession, the batteries
are discharged. Please insert new bat-
teries.
• To switch off after use, follow the steps
in the reverse order.
• Please always store the batteries away
from the vehicle.
• Clean the Carrera RC car after use.
