4 • TRAXXAS

This model is not intended
for use by children under
14 years of age without the
supervision of a responsible
and knowledgeable adult.

All instructions and
precautions outlined in this
manual should be strictly
followed to ensure safe
operation of your model.

All of us at Traxxas want you to safely enjoy your new model. Operate
your model sensibly and with care, and it will be exciting, safe, and
fun for you and those around you. Failure to operate your model in
a safe and responsible manner may result in property damage and
serious injury. The precautions outlined in this manual should be strictly
followed to help ensure safe operation. You alone must see that the
instructions are followed and the precautions are adhered to.

IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER

• Your model is not intended for use on public roads or congested

areas where its operation can conflict with or disrupt pedestrian or
vehicular traffic.

• Never, under any circumstances, operate the model in crowds of

people. Your model is very fast and could cause injury if allowed to
collide with anyone.

• Because your model is controlled by radio, it is subject to radio

interference from many sources that are beyond your control. Since
radio interference can cause momentary losses of radio control, always
allow a safety margin in all directions around the model in order to
prevent collisions.

• The motor, battery, and speed control can become hot during use. Be

careful to avoid getting burned.

• Don’t operate your model at night, or anytime your line of sight to the

model may be obstructed or impaired in any way.

•

Most importantly, use good common sense at all times.

BATTERIES AND BATTERY CHARGING

The speed control uses rechargeable batteries that must be handled

with care for safety and long battery life. Make sure to read and follow
all instructions and precautions that were provided with your battery
packs and your charger. It is your responsibility to charge and care for
your battery packs properly. In addition to your battery and charger
instructions, here are some more tips to keep in mind.

• Never leave batteries to charge unattended.
• Remove the batteries from the model while charging.
• Allow the battery packs to cool off between runs (before charging).
• Always unplug the battery from the electronic speed control when the

model is not in use and when it is being stored or transported.

• Do not use battery packs that have been damaged in any way.
• Do not use battery packs that have damaged wiring, exposed wiring,

or a damaged connector.

• Children should have responsible adult supervision when charging and

handling batteries.

LiPo Batteries

WARNING:

Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries require special care and

handling procedures for long life and safe operation. LiPo batteries
are intended only for advanced users that are educated on the risks
associated with LiPo battery use.

Traxxas does not recommend that

anyone under the age of 14 use or handle LiPo battery packs without
the supervision of a knowledgeable and responsible adult.

LiPo batteries have a minimum safe discharge voltage threshold that

should not be exceeded. The ESC is equipped with built-in Low-Voltage
Detection that alerts the driver when LiPo batteries have reached their
minimum voltage (discharge) threshold.

It is the driver’s responsibility

to stop immediately to prevent the battery pack from being
discharged below its safe minimum threshold.

Low-Voltage Detection on the speed control is just one part of a

comprehensive plan for safe LiPo battery use.

It is critical for you,

the user, to follow all other instructions supplied by the battery
manufacturer and the charger manufacturer for proper charging, use,
and storage of LiPo batteries. Make sure you understand how to use
your LiPo batteries.

Be aware that Traxxas shall not be liable for any

special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising out of the
installation and/or use of LiPo batteries in Traxxas products.

If you have questions about LiPo battery usage, please consult with your

local hobby dealer or contact the battery and/or charger manufacturer.
