a) General information
• This product is not a toy. It is not suitable for children under 14 years of age unless closely supervised
by a responsible adult.
• Do not leave packaging material lying around carelessly. This may become dangerous playing material
for children.
• Protect the appliance from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong jolts, high humidity, moisture,
flammable gases, steam and solvents.
• Do not place the product under any mechanical stress.
• If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, take it out of operation and protect it from any
accidental use. Safe operation can no longer be guaranteed if the product:
- is visibly damaged,
- is no longer working properly,
- has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions or
- has been subjected to any serious transport-related stresses.
• Please handle the product carefully. Jolts, impacts or a fall even from a low height can damage the
product.
• Consult an expert when in doubt about the operation, safety or connection.
• Maintenance, modifications and repairs must only be completed by a technician or an authorised repair
centre.
• If you have questions which remain unanswered by these operating instructions, contact our technical
support service or other technical personnel.
b) Operation
• Make sure you are sufficiently insured for the operation of the model, e.g. by a personal liability insurer.
If you already have personal liability insurance, check with your insurance company if the operation of
the model is also insured.
• Only use the model when it is within your sight as a large object can block the RF signal and lead to
loss of control.
• Only use the model when you are fully alert and able to respond, fatigue, alcohol or medications can
affect your ability to respond.
• Avoid using the model in very low outdoor temperatures. Plastic parts lose their elasticity in cold tem-
peratures. This can result in serious damage even after a minor accident.
• The operation and handling of remote controlled models must be learned! Novice operators should
operate the model conservatively and get used to the reactions of the model and remote control inputs.
• Do not use the product in rain or snow. Exposure to moisture (water or snow) may cause erratic opera-
tion or loss of control.
• Make sure the product is properly installed in your model. Failure to do so may result in serious injury.
