avoid battery leakage:
Do not mix old and new batteries or batteries of different types: alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or
rechargeable (nickel-cadmium).
Insert batteries as indicated inside the battery compartment.
Remove batteries during long periods of non-use. Always remove exhausted batteries from the
toy (product). Dispose of batteries safely. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries may
explode or leak.
Never short-circuit the battery terminals.
Use only batteries of the same or equivalent type, as recommended.
Do not charge non-rechargeable batteries.
If removable, rechargeable batteries are used in the transmitter, they are only to be charged
under adult supervision.
Do not dispose of the vehicle in a fire. The permanently-installed battery inside may explode or
leak.
Battery Performance Note:
For best performance use alkaline batteries (where disposable batteries are called for). If your
vehicle is supplied with standard (carbon-zinc) batteries for initial use and/or demonstration
purposes, we recommend replacing them with alkaline batteries when necessary. Battery life may
vary depending on battery brand.
