Driving the Real Driver™
• Turn on the Real Driver™ and the controller using the On/Off switches.
• The power indicator light on the controller will glow as long as the battery has power.
Forward
Push and hold Accelerate to make the Real Driver™
move forward. The car will reach the maximum speed
possible in first gear.
Accelerating
Continue to hold Accelerate until the second gear light
starts to flash and you hear the tone. Press the Gear
Up button to change to second gear. The car can now
reach the maximum speed possible in second gear. The
gear light will stay lit up without flashing.
Continue to hold Accelerate until the third gear light
starts to flash and you hear the tone. Press the Gear Up
button to change to third gear. The car will reach top
speed. All three indicator lights will stay lit up.
Decelerating
There are three ways to
slow down the Real Driver™.
1. If you release the
Accelerate button the car
will gradually slow down
and stop. The gears will
automatically drop down,
one at a time when you
release the button.
2. Press the Gear Down
button to change to a lower
gear. The gear indicator
lights will turn off one at a
time. This will
reduce the speed of the car.
3. You can also press the
brake button to stop the
motions.
Reverse
• Push the Reverse Gear button to
put the Real Driver™ into reverse
gear. The reverse gearindicator
light will light up.
• Press and hold Accelerate to make
the Real Driver™ move backward.
• To change back to forward gear, press the Reverse
Gear button again. The Reverse Gear indicator light will
turn off.
Right Turn
While the car is moving forward or backward, twist the
moving section of the controller clockwise to make the
Real Driver™ turn to the right.
Left Turn
While the car is moving forward or backward, twist the
moving section of the controller counterclockwise to
make the Real Driver™ turn to the left.
Steering Correction
• If you find that the Real Driver™
steers to the left or right while
driving forward or backward, use
the Steering Alignment Knob to
correct the steering.
• If the Real Driver™ steers to the
left, turn the Steering Alignment
Knob in a counter-clockwise
direction.
• If the Real Driver™ steers to
the right, turn the Steering
Alignment Knob in a clockwise
direction.
Remember that when you adjust
the Steering Alignment Knob you
are looking at the car from
underneath so turning the knob
left will make the Real Driver™
turn to the right and vice versa.
Driving & Safety Tips:
The Real Driver™ is a
high-performance RC
vehicle. Care must be
taken while driving
it near other people
or animals. Always
drive the Real Driver™
where there is plenty
of space to maneuver.
The bumpers will
absorb a lot of
impact but please
avoid any direct
collisions with heavy
objects.
