Contents 1 - Mini Cooper S 1 - Transmitter Battery Installation Vehicle 1. The battery compartment is located on the underside of the unit. Use a Phillips screwdriver to open the battery compartment. 2. Install 3 AA batteries, making sure to match the polarity (+ and -) with the diagram on the inside of the battery compartment. 3. Replace the battery cover and screw in firmly. Transmitter 1. The battery compartment is located on the back of the unit. Use a small Phillips screwdriver to release the screw then slide the battery compartment cover off. 2. Install a 9V battery, making sure to match the polarity (+ and -) with the diagram on the inside of the battery cover. 3. Replace battery cover and screw in firmly. Note: When installing batteries into the vehicle be careful to not damage the antenna. 9355 (MA) MiniCoop.indd 2 9/26/08 3:24:38 PM Operation There is an OFF/ON switch on the transmitter and on the bottom of the car. Turn both switches to ON How to Race: Your transmitter features two joysticks. The one on the left moves up (forward) and down (reverse) to control the forward and backward motion of the car. The joystick on the right moves right and left to control the turning of your car. Range: When the vehicle goes beyond radio signal contact, loss of control or slowness will occur. Extend the transmitting antenna higher for better signal. Make sure the antenna is screwed on tightly. Trim Switch Control: The switch is located on the underside of the vehicle between the two front wheels, just above the battery compartment. It is used to align the wheels so that vehicle drives consistently in a straight line. If your car turns when it should go straight, adjust the trim switch until the problem is eliminated. Interference It is advisable not to use the vehicle close to high tension wires or CB radios. Interference from radio waves may affect the vehicle’s performance. Helpful Hints • Avoid heat, water or wet surfaces, dusty surfaces or sand. Off- road vehicles run easier on grassy surfaces. • Avoid hard-impact collisions. Collisions against hard surfaces may damage the vehicle. • The vehicle cannot operate on thick carpets or dusty floors. • If you wish to operate more than one vehicle at a time, you must purchase another vehicle on another frequency. • If the car does not respond to the transmitter, move closer to the car and try again. • If the car starts to lose power, performance may decrease. If this happens, simply recharge your car again. Battery Life Extend the battery life by switching the unit off when not in use. Battery life affects how your car responds. When the transmitter range decreases, replace the batteries in the controller and vehicle. 9355 (MA) MiniCoop.indd 3 9/26/08 3:24:38 PM Troubleshooting: If the vehicle does not move: 1. Are the battery contacts matched correctly in the transmitter? 2. Are the metal contact tabs touching, rusty or dirty in the transmitter? 3. Are there batteries in the transmitter? 4. Is the power switch on the transmitter turned on? 5. Are the batteries exhausted? Special Care & Handling • Avoid rough handling such as bumping or dropping. • Avoid moisture and extreme temperatures. For best results, use between the temperatures of 39ºF and 100ºF (4º C and 38º C) and keep away from fire. • Avoid using the vehicle for long periods under direct sunlight. Sunlight or excessive heat may damage electronic parts. • Store the vehicle transmitter in a dry, cool place away from heaters or warm areas. • Do not use cleaners with chemical agent. Clean using only slightly damp cloth. Then use a dry cloth to wipe off the moisture. Dust, dirt, or other foreign objects can also be removed from your vehicle by using a brush or by tying a small bit of cloth to the tip of a toothpick or tweezers and using that to wipe off your car. 9355 (MA) MiniCoop.indd 4 Battery & Other Information • Batteries should be installed or replaced only by an adult. Also wires and plugs should be periodically checked by an adult. • Install batteries with the correct polarity. • Your car uses 3 AA alkaline batteries and one 9V battery for the transmitter, not included. • Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or rechargeable (nickel-cadmium/ Ni-MH) batteries. • Do not mix old and new batteries. • Do not use rechargeable batteries. • Remove exhausted batteries from the unit. • Take caution when removing leaking or damaged batteries. • To avoid explosion or leakage, do not dispose of batteries in a fire or attempt to recharge alkaline or other non-rechargeable batteries. • Leakage may occur if the battery is not used for an extended period of time. • Dispose of all batteries properly. Do not disassemble the batteries. • Do not short circuit battery terminals. • Remove batteries and store in a cool, dry place when not in use. 9/26/08 3:24:38 PM This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
