4. Safety Notices

In case of damage caused by non-compliance with these safety instructions the warranty / guarantee will become void. We will not
assume any responsibility for consequential damage!
Nor do we assume liability for damage to property or personal injury caused by improper use or failure to observe the safety instruc-
tions! In such cases the warranty/guarantee is voided.
Normal wear and tear during operation (e.g. plain tread tyres) are excluded from the guarantee and warranty; the same applies for damage due to
accidents (e.g. broken off transverse link, scratched or destroyed car body etc.).
Dear Customer, these safety instructions are not only for the protection of the product but also for your own safety and that of other people.
Therefore, read this chapter very carefully before putting the product into operation!
a) General Information
Caution, important note!
Operating the model may cause damage to property and/or persons. Therefore, make sure that you are properly insured when using the model,
e.g. by taking out private liability insurance. If you already have private liability insurance, enquire whether the operation of the model is covered
before operating it.
• The unauthorized conversion and/or modification of the product is prohibited for safety and approval reasons (CE).
• The product is not a toy and should be kept out of reach of children under 14 years of age.
• The product must not become wet.
• The model is only designed for use outside of closed rooms. The fumes are harmful to health! Never operate the combustion engine in closed indoor rooms,
not even for test purposes.
• Take note of the equipment regulations and the maintenance instructions for the vehicle!
• Only use original replacement parts.
• Do not leave packaging material unattended. It may become a dangerous toy for children.
• Should questions arise that are not answered by the operating manual, contact us (for contact information, see chapter 1) or another expert.
The operation and handling of remote control model cars must be learned! If you have never steered such a vehicle before, drive especially
carefully and get used to the reactions of the car to the remote control commands first. Do be patient!
b) Engine & Fuel
• Also pay attention to the running-in regulations for the engine.
• Only use model vehicle fuel designed for RC models. RC cars require fuel based on methanol/oil with a minimum ratio of 5% to 25% nitro methane and 16%
oil. Never use common car gasoline! Also, never use fuel for flight models, because it does not contain enough oil.
• Do not touch the engine and the exhaust during operation! Never reach into the drive and do not insert any objects in it!
Danger of burns and other injuries!
• Switching off the engine: Cover the exhaust pipe with a motor stopper (alternatively with a rag) to stall the motor. The fuel supply should not be disconnected
or the engine may overheat. Wait until the engine has stopped before turning off the receiver and then the transmitter.
• Store fuel in a locked place and out of the reach of children! Avoid contact with eyes, mucus membranes and skin. Contact a physician immediately if you start
feeling ill. The individual ingredients of the model fuel, methanol and nitro methane are toxic!
Danger to health!
• Never spill any fuel. Use a special fuel bottle to fuel the car.
• Test-runs or drives must only take place outdoors. Do not inhale the fuel and exhaust fumes.
• Car fuel is highly flammable. Do not smoke when fuelling. No open flames!
Danger of fire and explosion!
• Keep fuel in well-ventilated rooms only and keep it away from ignition sources.
• Only transport the model when the tank is empty! Empty the tank if you do not want to drive the model for several days.
• Only use appropriate containers for transporting the fuel.
