Follow the reverse order when switching off.※If the wrong order is followed, it may lead to an uncontrollable model.●Dismantling or modifying the RF Module (internalized in the case of the EX-2) is prohibited and is punishable by law.※Doing so may lead to accidents such as short circuits and KO Propo Customer Service Department may not accept dismantled/modified products for repair.●Do not use this product in aircraft, hospitals, or near fire alarms or medical equipment.※This may lead to malfunctions and result in serious accidents. Also, by law you must cease operation if the product affects other wireless or electrical devices.●2.4GHz transmitters must be registered with the Japan Radio Control Safety Association.※The transmitter which you have purchases is already registered. Products which do not have proof of registration are illegal.●In the case of an R/C car, make sure to remove the battery pack after driving.※If the car is switched on accidentally, it may lead to a fire or an uncontrollable model.●Keep transmitters, batteries, and models away from small children.※Chemical agents and the items themselves may cause personal injury.●Remove batteries from transmitter if it will not be used for a considerable time.※If batteries are left in the transmitter, battery leakage may result in damage.●Do not store transmitter/receiver in the following conditions:1. Extremely hot (over 40ºC) or cold (below 10ºC) temperatures.2. Locations in direct sunlight.3. Locations with high humidity.4. Locations subject to vibrations.5. Locations with lots of dust.※These conditions may cause the case to deform and damage the product.●Never short-circuit the battery connector.※This may lead to a fire or explosion.●Do not dispose batteries in fires.※This is very dangerous and may lead to an explosion.●Use KO Propo chargers to charge the battery and use the correct current (under 1A).※Incorrect current may lead to battery damage, overheating, or leakage.※Other manufacturer's chargers may not have a automatic cutoff function.●Do not subject the battery to strong shocks.※This may damage the battery and cause leakage or a short circuit.●Do not dismantle or modify the battery.※This may cause dangerous leakage of battery fluids.●Keep away from water. Do not charge a wet battery.※This may cause overheating and damage.●Do not charge alkaline batteries.※Alkaline and other single-use batteries cannot be recharged. Doing so may lead to fire and damage.●Do not use wet hands when plugging in the charger's AC Adapter.※This may result in electrical shocks.※If there is battery fluid leakage, avoid contact with eyes as it may result in blindness. If contact with eyes occur, flush with large amounts of water and seek medical attention immediately.※When disposing batteries, Ni-Cd, Ni-MH, Li-Po, and Li-Fe batteries should be recycled in order to help protect the environment.

![Carbon Fiber ChassisNoise is generated in any area where a large amount of electric current is flowing. Position the receiver and antenna cable as far away from the motor, battery, ESC, and their associated cables as possible. (Metal or carbon fiber chassis components will also conduct electricity and generate noise.)Since R/C models are controlled via radio signals, taking appropriate measures against noise generated by on-board equipment is of utmost importance. Take adequate measures against noise so that your machine can fully realize your driving potential. Battery PackReceiverESC Silicon CablesMotorNoiseNoiseNoiseNoiseNoiseNoiseNoiseNoiseNoiseNoiseKeep antenna cable away from all sources of noise!When installing the receiver to the chassis or R/C equipment deck/tray, use two or more pieces of thick double-sided tape to raise the receiver off the chassis surface. By increasing the separation between the receiver and the noise-generating carbon-fiber chassis components, the effects of noise can be decreased.Raise the antenna cable vertically from as high a position as possible. Insert the antenna cable into the antenna pipe so that the tip of the antenna aligns with the end of the pipe. Make the length of cable which runs between the receiver and the pipe as short as possible and position the antenna holder as close to the receiver as possible. Position the antenna cable away from sources of noise such as the chassis and R/C equipment deck/tray. Use an antenna pipe and antenna mount that are made from plastic, since metal parts will conduct noise.Engine vibrations may damage the receiver. Make sure to attach a grommet (receiver holder) to reduce the effects of such vibrations. Do not attach the receiver directly to the chassis or R/C equipment deck/tray with double-sided tape. Also position the receiver so that it does not contact the heat and exhaust of the engine and muffler.Plastic Antenna Pipe Plastic Antenna PipePlastic Antenna HolderGrommetAluminum Antenna HolderAluminum Antenna HolderPiano WireDouble-Sided TapeAntenna CableSignal Receiving SectionNoiseNoiseNoiseNoiseNoiseNoiseNoiseNoiseNoiseNoise(Acceptable with FRP or plastic chassis)Soldered Lug Plate● Receiver Installation on a Carbon Fiber Chassis● Antenna Installation● Installing Onto a Glow Engine Car※Install the receiver so that its LEDs are visible.※Install the receiver so that its LEDs are visible.※Do not bend or cut the antenna cable.

![12● Receiver Installation1.2.3.4.5.Install the receiver, servo, and ESC (in the case of an electric car) onto your machine and connect them. Install the receiver while taking noise into consideration (p.11).Install batteries into the transmitter's battery box (p.9).In the case of an electric car, install battery pack. In the case of a glow engine car, install battery for receiver.For 2.4GHz systems, conduct pairing of the transmitter and receiver .※ In order for the receiver to operate, it must store the transmitter's unique ID in its memory in a process called “pairing.” Even if a single transmitter is used to control multiple receivers, each receiver must go through the pairing process with the transmitter before being used for the rst time.Adjust steering(p.18)and throttle/braking(p.19).Set the Fail-Safe Function(p.15).※ Carefully read the instructions included with the servo and ESC before installing and using them.For items which are not included in this product, please refer to the KO Propo website for a list of compatible products. (http://www.kopropo.co.jp)This transmitter is only compatible with digital servos.

As a precaution, set your car so that its wheels do not touch the ground.Pairing procedures may not go smoothly if there are wireless LAN, microwave ovens, or other users conducting pairing procedures nearby. In this case, move some distance away or wait a while before attempting the pairing procedure again.If the mode is changed(General or France), please conduct pairing procedures with the receiver you are using again.<France mode pairing >FRANCE mode pairing is possible when the ET2 lever is released after LED turns o. Please use this feature if the situation is needed.1.2.3.ET2ET2Power ON↓↓↓● Pairing (For general receiver) Preparing the Receiver① Connect the receiver power source while pressing the setup button.② Check that the receiver's LED has lit up, then release the setup button.③ Check that the receiver's LED lights up again (indicating pairing completion)※ When pairing is complete, pressing the ENTER key on the transmitter will return the screen to the previous [2.4Gband] menu.※ Switch o the receiver, then switch it back on again for normal operations.※ The preparations below are to be carried out following the pairing procedure. Preparations for Operation① Switch o the receiver.② Switch o the EX-2 main power, then switch on EX-2 again.③ Switch on the receiver and check that the receiver LED is lit.
