Battery Notes

Running your vehicle continuously for long periods of time generates high heat levels. Heat causes wear and tear on the 
motor. To keep heat levels down, let the vehicle cool at least 10 minutes before installing a new or newly charged battery 
pack.

If the vehicle's motor runs but it does not respond to the transmitter, move closer to the vehicle and try again.

If someone uses a CB nearby, it might interfere with control of the vehicle. If this happens, move the vehicle away from 
the CB.

You cannot operate your vehicle near devices with transmitters that use the same frequency as your vehicle (27 MHz or 
49 MHz). Check you vehicle's box to see which frequency your vehicle uses.

If the vehicle moves slowly and you just installed a fully charged battery pack, check the wheel mechanisms for lint, 
thread, hair, or dust.

Do not drive the vehicle in puddles, on a wet floor, on sand, in mud, rain, or snow.  This can damage the vehicle.

If the vehicle gets stuck under an object, immediately release the control levers and retrieve the vehicle.

Keep the vehicle dry; if it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Use and 
store the vehicle only in room temperature environments. Handle the 
vehicle carefully; do not drop it. Keep the vehicle away from dust and 
dirt, and wipe it with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.

If your vehicle is not performing as it should, take it to your local 
RadioShack store for assistance. To locate your nearest RadioShack, 
use the store locator feature on RadioShack's website 
(www.radioshack.com), or call 1-800-The Shack (843-7422) and follow 
the menu options. 

Modifying or tampering with the vehicle's internal components can 
cause a malfunction and might invalidate its warranty and void your 
FCC authorization to operate it. 

Batteries purchased for use in this toy may 
pose a hazard to children. Please check 
the safety notice supplied with the 
batteries before use.

Before using the battery pack, you must 
charge it using a special battery charger 
(not supplied, available at your local 
RadioShack store). Follow the charger's 
instructions to charge the battery pack. 
You can install and drive the car using 
alkaline batteries while the battery pack is 
charging.

If the vehicle runs slowly, not at all, or does 
not respond to the transmitter, recharge 
the battery pack, or replace the AA 
batteries.

Do not charge or recharge the battery 
pack while it is in the vehicle.

After you charge or recharge the battery 
pack, disconnect it from the charger. 
Overcharging the battery pack could 
damage it.

If you use alkaline batteries to power the 
motor, they will get very hot. Be sure to 
wait a few minutes after you stop using the 
vehicle before you remove the batteries.

Using alkaline batteries slightly decreases 
your vehicle's speed.

Dispose of old batteries promptly and 
properly. 

Do not burn or bury batteries.

Use only fresh batteries of the required 
size and recommended type.

Do not mix old and new batteries, different 
types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or 
rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries 
of different capacities.

If you do not plan to use the vehicle for a 
week or more, remove the batteries. 
Batteries can leak chemicals that can 
damage electronic parts.

Rules

. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This 

equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the 
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. 
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful

Consult your local RadioShack store or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your vehicle. 

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by RadioShack may cause interference and void the user’s authority to operate 
the equipment.
