User's Manual

This toy vehicle needs periodic maintenance and cleaning. Be sure to keep the motor clean and free of dirt and/or
objects that may prohibit ventilation and cause the motor to overheat.
To clean the area around the motor, remove the link pins
from the six posts that protrude from the hood, roof, and
trunk areas (Fig. 5-1). Lift the body shell off the posts to
expose the chassis, motor assembly, and suspension.
Clean as necessary with a dry cloth or cleaning brush.
A damp cloth or light cleaning solution may be used to
remove difficult to clean dirt/debris. CAUTION: Do not
allow any liquid to drip into the motor housing. Keep
liquids away from electrical connections.
Be sure to insert all link pins back into the posts after
replacing the body shell. Failure to do so could result
in the body flying off the chassis during future operation.
If your body shell cracks or breaks as a result of a crash,
additional body shells are available for purchase. Call
1-800-728-7940 for order information.
MAINTENANCE
• Never operate your vehicle on the street or highway.
• Never operate your vehicle in a confined or crowded area, and do not use people or animals as obstacles.
• Watch out for obstacles ahead of the direction the vehicle is running. Do not run your vehicle into people,
animals, objects or hard surfaces, as this will cause injury and/or damage to both the objects and the vehicle.
• Do not operate during thunderstorms.
• Avoid water, sand, snow, and "loose" surfaces (gravel, rocks, etc.) when operating your vehicle. In addition, do
not submerge your vehicle or transmitter in water.
• Keep fingers, hair, and loose clothing away from the tires, gears, and motor while the vehicle is switched ON.
• Do not leave vehicle or transmitter near sources of heat or under direct sunlight for long periods of time.
• Do not leave vehicle or transmitter outside overnight- dampness is harmful to interior components.
• The vehicle motor may become very hot during operation- allow it to cool for a minimum of 2 hours before
touching for any reason.
• Remove all batteries when not in use to avoid accidental operation.
• Adult supervision is recommended when operating this vehicle.
SAFETY
Choose a safe place to operate your vehicle (see additional safety information contained in this manual). Do not
point the front or the back of the vehicle towards any person or animal, and keep a safe distance back from the
vehicle before and during operation.
Place the car on it's roof. Do not touch the wheels.
Extend the transmitter antenna fully and move the power switch to the "ON" position.
Move the power switch on the bottom of the car to the "ON" position.
Before operating the vehicle, adjust the trim controls on the transmitter. The "Steering Trim" (STR TRIM) is used
to fine-tune the steering. If the front wheels are not straight, adjust the Steering Trim either right or left until the
wheels are straight. The "Neutral Trim" (F/R TRIM) is to fine-tune the delivery of power to the wheels. If the
vehicle's rear wheels start to turn as soon as you move the power switch to the "ON" position, adjust the "Neutral
Trim" either right or left until the wheels stop. (Fig. 4-1)
To control your vehicle:
-pull the trigger to move the car forward
-push the trigger to move the car backward
-to stop the car, release trigger and allow sufficient space for car to coast to a stop
-turn the steering wheel clockwise for a right turn
-turn the steering wheel counter clockwise for a left turn
NOTE: For maximum performance, hold the transmitter upright so the antenna points up (do not point the
antenna at the car- this will reduce the signal range).
Always turn OFF the power switch on the transmitter before approaching the vehicle.
When play is complete, the battery pack may be very hot. Use caution when removing the hot battery pack. If
you are not immediately replacing the discharged battery pack with a fresh one, it is best to allow the hot battery
pack to cool for at least 1 hour before removing from the vehicle.

RACE
This product is very fast and for outdoor use. As with any performance vehicle, the tires will wear down over time.
The tires on this vehicle are removable and can be replaced (additional tires can be purchased- call 1-800-728-
7940 for order information).
CAUTION: Please remove the battery pack from the car and ensure that the transmitter is turned
off before attempting to replace tires.
To Replace Tires:
1. Remove the wheel lug nut with the provided tire tool by turning in a counter-clockwise direction as shown in the
figure above, and remove the old tire (Fig. 6-1). Keep the washer (front wheels only) for future use.
2. Apply some grease to the unthreaded area of the shaft- do not apply grease on the threaded area.
3. Place the new tire on the shaft and reapply the washer (front wheels only) and lug nut. Turn the lug nut in a
clockwise direction to tighten snugly (do not over tighten).
4. Inspect the tires to ensure they are properly installed. The front wheels should rotate freely/smoothly. The rear
wheels should be fixed firmly to the shafts and only rotate with the shaft.
Note: The wheel hubs for the front and rear tires are different, and therefore the front and rear tires are not
interchangeable. Each wheel is marked either "FRONT" or "REAR" on the inside of the wheel- be sure to check
each wheel before installing.
