Please note that various models can generate very high noise
levels and should, therefore, not be operated in your immediate
proximity.
Please make sure, before every driving session, that the tank is
correctly closed or the power pack is correctly inserted.
To avoid faulty operation of the control system causing the model
to run out of control, it must be checked that the transmitter and
model batteries are in good condition.
It is essential to check that the model is correctly assembled both
before and after use; if need be, tighten nuts and bolts.
Only a correctly assembled model will work and react as expected.
Never improvise with unsuitable materials but, when the need
arises, use only original spare parts. Even if the model is pre-as-
sembled, all joints and fastenings should be checked for correct
seating and tightness.
Pay attention to the charge level indication
on your transmitter.
• With power packs or batteries that are half discharged, you can
lose control of the model.
• In the transmitter, never mix fully charged batteries, rechar-
geable or not, with half discharged batteries or rechargeable
batteries of different capacity.
• Never try to charge non-rechargeable batteries (dry cells), only
batteries specified as rechargeable can be charged.
