b) Operation
• If you do not yet have sufficient knowledge on how to deal with remote-controlled models, please contact
an experienced model sportsman or a model construction club.
• When putting the device into operation, always turn on the transmitter first. Then switch on the receiver
in the model. Otherwise, the model might show unpredictable responses!
•
Before operating the model, check whether the stationary model reacts as expected to the commands
of the remote control.
•
When you operate the model, always make sure that no parts of your body, other people or objects come
within the dangerous range of the motors or any other rotating drive parts.
•
Improper operation can cause serious damage to people and property! Always make sure that the model
is in your line of sight and do not operate it at night.
• Only operate your model if your ability to respond is unrestricted. Fatigue or the influence of alcohol or
medication can lead to wrong responses.
•
Operate your model in an area where you do not endanger any other persons, animals or objects. Only
operate it on private sites or in places which are specifically designated for this purpose.
•
In case of a fault stop operating your model straight away and remove the cause of malfunction before
you continue to use the model.
• Do not operate your RC system during thunderstorms, beneath high-voltage power lines or in the prox-
imity of radio masts.
•
Never switch off the remote control (transmitter) while the model is in use. To switch off the model, always
switch off the motor first, then switch off the receiver. Only then may the remote control be switched off.
•
Protect the remote control from dampness and heavy dirt.
•
Do not expose the remote control to direct sunlight or excessive heat for a long period of time.
•
If the batteries in the remote control are low, the range decreases. If the receiver batteries or recharge
-
able battery in the receiver are low, the model will not respond correctly to the remote control.
If this is the case, stop driving immediately. Replace the batteries with new ones or recharge the
receiver‘s rechargeable battery.
•
Do not take any risks when operating the product! Your own safety and that of your environment depends
completely on your responsible use of the model.
