Operation Check
The CAR be-
comes inopera-
tive when fitted to
the body.
The CAR does
not move on
cloudy days.
Check whether the tires are touching the body.
The CAR runs
backward.
Check whether the sunlight is sufficiently falling on the
solar battery. When the weather turns cloudy, the sun-
light becomes weak, the lowering generating capacity of
the solar battery, as a result causing the motor power to
weaken.
In some cases, setting the gear to a low speed can often
run the CAR.
Check if the solar battery is correctly wired in connec-
tion with the terminals (+) and (-). Check also that the
motor wiring is correct.
Check that the front wheels are securely pushed into the
metal shaft. Go back to page 9 recheck steps 1) “Assem-
ble the front wheels by following step
①
and
②
”.
Recheck the spacing of the wheels on the shaft.
Check that the switch is turned on. If not, turn the switch
lever toward the SOLAR.
Check that the gear is correctly fitted. Note that the di-
rection is different in setting the gears between low
speed and high speed rotations. Go back to page 11
recheck step 3) “Attach the flat spur gear with pinion as
below.”
Check the polarity of the battery (+,-).
Check all wirings are correct.
Check if a new battery is used.
(Use “AA” Alkaline battery.)
The CAR does
not move out-
doors even on a
sunny day.
The gears do not
engage.
The CAR does
not move on “AA”
battery mode.
