b) Commissioning
• The manual for the remote control system is included separately. Always observe all safety information
included in it as well as any other information!
• The delivery of item no. 1559975 includes a charger that is intended for connection to the mains voltage.
In case of improper handling of the charger, there is danger to life from electric shock. Therefore, always
observe the operating instructions of the charger.
• Only use suitable drive batteries for the vehicle. Never operate the speed controller with a mains adapter,
not even for test purposes.
• This vehicle is suitable only for use with a LiPo drive battery with 2 cells (nominal voltage of drive battery
7.4 V) or NiMH drive battery with 6 or 7 cells (nominal voltage 7.2 V or 8.4 V).
When using a drive battery with more cells, there is a danger of fire from overheating of the speed
controller. Apart from this, the vehicle's drive will be overloaded and damaged by this (e.g. differential).
Loss of guarantee/warranty!
• When putting the device into operation, always turn on the transmitter first. Only then must the vehicle's
drive battery be connected with the speed controller and the speed controller switched on. Otherwise,
the vehicle may show unpredictable responses!
Proceed as follows:
- Place the vehicle on an appropriate support before connecting the drive battery so that the wheels
can turn freely.
- Switch off the speed controller.
- Switch on the transmitter if you haven't done it already. Check its function (e.g. operation display of
the transmitter).
- Put the trimming for the throttle/brake function at the transmitter into the centre position.
- Now connect a fully charged drive battery to the speed controller in the correct polarity.
- Now switch on the speed controller. Wait for a few seconds until the speed controller has completed
its self-test.
- Check that the vehicle reacts to remote control commands as expected (steering and drive) before
taking it from the support and placing it on the ground with its wheels.
c) Driving the Vehicle
• Improper operation can cause serious damage to people and property! Only drive with the model directly
in view. This is why you shouldn't drive at night.
• Only drive when your ability to react is unimpaired. Tiredness or the influence of alcohol or medication
can cause incorrect responses, just as with real vehicles.
• Please note that this model car must not be driven on public roads, places or streets. Also do not operate
it on private grounds without the owner's permission.
• Don't drive towards animals or people!
• Avoid driving at very low outdoor temperatures. Plastic parts lose elasticity, which may lead to damage
even in a light accident.
