DR. KRAIZD’S TOP SECRET QUICK TIPS
qWhen Shell Shocker™ starts to lose power you’ll start
to lose performance. It's time for a recharge. As a rule,
you should always start with a fully charged battery.
wBe forewarned-- Shell Shocker’s running time may
change depending on your driving style.
eRadio interference can mess up the signals you’re
sending, causing Shell Shocker™ to perform errati-
cally. Things to look for that may be causing the
interference: other R/C vehicles running on the
same frequency, electrical wires, large buildings,
CB radios, secret government agents attempting to
thwart my brilliant creations or other wireless gear
that can cause interference.
rPoint your transmitter antenna up - not down
toward Shell Shocker™. If Shell Shocker™
escapes your antenna’s grasp, you can kiss proper
functioning goodbye and send your poor deranged
creature into its default blink mode.
tDon’t drive Shell Shocker™ through water or snow.
Not only won’t you get very far, you might ruin the
creature. If my precious Shell Shocker™ does get
wet, wipe it with a towel and allow it to dry completely.
yDon’t store Shell Shocker™ near heat or in direct
sunlight. Always turn the switches OFF and,
if you’re not planning on taking the little creature
out of its cave for a while, remove all the batter-
ies...really. It’s amazing how one leaky battery can
bring all my brilliant work to ruin!
*Please recharge your battery when you find the
Shell Shocker™'s eyes blink slowly. If the Shell
Shocker™ is blocked by some obstacle, its eyes
will blink in a medium speed. If it cannot receive
any signal from the TX, the eyes will blink fast.
ìV. HANDLING THE BEAST WITH CARE!
Note to Adults: To ensure that the child’s play is both
safe and fun, please review all the operating instructions
and safety tips with your child.
Safety Tips
• Yes, Shell Shocker™ is a multi-terrain vehicle but
you should NEVER, EVER drive it on the street!
• DO NOT pick up Shell Shocker™ while in motion.
Take your fingers off the Transmitter buttons and
then pick it up.
XCAUTION: Keep fingers, hair and loose clothing
away from Shell Shocker™ while it’s on.
• In ‘Snap Attack’ mode the tail comes down fast.
Keep feet, fingers and anything that moves away
from Shell Shocker™ when practicing this mode.
• Adult supervision is recommended when Shell
Shocker™ is being used.
• To avoid accidental or unwanted operation, remove all
the batteries when not in use. Always turn Shell
Shocker™ OFF before removing the batteries.
