Installing Batteries in the Chassis
1. Make sure the power switch on the chassis is OFF.
2. Remove the screw on the battery compartment cover. Then carefully unlatch the battery compartment
cover and remove the cover.
3. Insert four AA batteries (not included) in the compartment, matching the polarity symbols (+ and –)
marked inside.
4. Replace the battery compartment cover and screw.
Battery Notes:
UÊ Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury batteries.
UÊ Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.
UÊ Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or
rechargeable batteries of different capacities.
UÊ If you do not plan to use the vehicle for several days, remove the batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals
that can destroy electronic parts.
Mounting the Car Body on the Chassis
1. Insert the chassis tab into the slot inside the front bumper.
2. Lower the rear of the body so the tab near the back of the car body enters the slot behind the rear axle.
Press gently until you hear a click.
To remove the body from the chassis, press the tab from Step 2 gently toward the rear of the vehicle and lift
the rear part of the chassis. Gently slide the car body’s nose from the chassis.

Setting Up Your Controller
Installing the Battery
Your controller needs a 9V battery (not included). We recommend 9V alkaline batteries for best performance.
1. Make sure the power switch is OFF, and remove the screw on the battery compartment.
2. Place the 9V battery in the compartment, matching the polarity symbols (+ and –) marked inside.
3. Snap the cover back in place and replace the screw.
Battery Notes:
UÊ When you notice the LED is off or the range of your car decreases, replace the battery.
UÊ Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury batteries.
UÊ Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.
UÊ If you do not plan to use the vehicle for several days, remove the battery. Batteries can leak chemicals that
can destroy electronic parts.
Pairing Your Controller and the Car
Your XMODS operates at a frequency of 2.4Ghz. Before driving the first time, you must pair the controller and car.
1. Turn on the controller.
2. Turn on the car (The power switch is under the chassis). The LED indicator on the car flashes slowly.
3. Press and hold the car pairing button for 3 seconds; the car LED flashes quickly. When the car LED stops
flashing, pairing is complete.
Note:
UÊ Your car and controller remain paired for future use, even when batteries are removed from the controller or
the car.
UÊ If the pairing failed, turn off the controller and the car, move closer, and then try again.

Driving Your Car and Adjusting Trim
After you turn on both controller and car, squeeze the trigger to move forward and push the trigger away
from the handle to go in reverse.
If your car does not drive straight when you release the steering wheel, adjust the trim:
1. Determine if the car steers too far to the right or left.
2. Turn off the controller, and then push the controller trigger fully forward.
3. Turn on the controller; the LED indicator on the controller flashes.
4. Keep the trigger held forward and turn the wheel to the right or left to adjust the trim.
UÊ If the car pulls to the right, turn the wheel to the left.
UÊ If the car pulls to the left, turn the wheel to the right.
5. Release the trigger; the LED indicator stops flashing and lights steadily.
Note: To avoid unintentionally adjusting the steering trim, do not operate the trigger or steering wheel when
you turn on the controller.
Running your XMODS continuously for long periods can generate high heat levels. If the car overheats, its
overheat protection will stop the car. In this case, switch the controller and the vehicle off and allow to cool
for at least 10 minutes before resuming operation.
When You Finish Driving
To conserve battery life, turn off the controller and car after you finish driving.
UÊ Handle your XMODS car and controller carefully and do not drop them. Keep away from dust and dirt. Wipe
your car and controller with a damp cloth occasionally to keep them looking new.
UÊ Keep your XMODS car and controller dry; if they get wet, wipe them dry immediately.
UÊ Use and store only in normal temperature environments.
