Swing battery door closed and snap shut. power indicator light On/Off Switch vehicle controls battery door battery compartment SPECIAL FEATURES Your transmitter can operate in 3 different modes…for ultimate driving action! LED indicator Right control button ON/OFF switch Left control button I. SPEEDSHIFTER™ MODE – 3-speed shifting and cool driving sounds 1. Turn the vehicle switch ON. Turn the transmitter ON. Don’t press either control button. 2. After 3 seconds you’ll hear a shifting sound. You’re now in SpeedShifter™ mode! Just like a real driver, you’ll have to shift up through the “gears“…from first to third! 3. Press and release either control button to "start" your vehicle. 4. Press the left control button forward to drive forward in first gear. The LED indicator (and a horn beep) will tell you when to shift. To shift, release the shifter control…then push it forward again and hold it down. Your vehicle’s speed (and sound) will change when you change “gears.“ Your vehicle will "downshift" when you turn for more than 1 second. • If you don’t shift when the LED comes on, the “motor whine” will tell you that you need to shift. • If you shift too soon, your “transmission” will make a “grinding” sound…just like a real gearbox. • Just like a real vehicle, your “transmission” has only one “gear” in reverse. II. SOUND MODE – high-speed driving…with cool driving sounds 1. Turn the vehicle switch ON. Turn the transmitter ON. 2. Within 3 seconds, press the left control button forward and hold it down until the LED indicator flashes. 3. Release the control button and the horn will beep. You’re now in Sound Mode. 4. Press and release either control button to "start" your vehicle. 5. Use the control buttons to drive with cool driving sounds. III. MUTE MODE – high-speed driving…without sound 1. Turn the vehicle switch ON. Turn the transmitter ON. 2. Within 3 seconds, press the left control button backward and hold it down until the LED indicator flashes. 3. Release the control button.

VEHICLE OPERATION – after vehicle is placed in desired mode FORWARD REVERSE LEFT RIGHT NiCd BATTERY INFORMATION Please follow these instructions regarding NiCd vehicle battery charging and safety. Use charger only under adult supervision. BATTERY CHARGING/CARE – 9.6V TURBO® BATTERY 1. Plug wall pack charger into standard 110/120 volt outlet. 2. Connect the wires leading from the battery pack to the wall pack charger connector. Make certain the two connectors are tightly snapped together. 3. To disconnect wires, push down on the connector clip and pull apart. 4. Your battery pack consists of new parts and materials; therefore, you should charge the battery pack for 51/2 hours the first two times you charge the battery. Subsequent charges will require only 4 hours. 5. After charging for 4 hours, the battery will feel warm. This condition is normal for fully charged batteries. 6. Charging the battery pack for more than 4 hours will not give you a longer running time. 4 hours is all that is required for a fully charged battery pack. 7. Unlike alkaline batteries, where the power loss is gradual, a NiCd (nickelcadmium) battery will run for its normal running time, depending on your particular vehicle, and then lose most of its power at once. It is time to recharge the battery pack. Running time will vary, depending upon which R/C vehicle you have. 8. After use, the battery pack will be hot! Wait at least 20 minutes until the battery pack cools before recharging. Recharging a warm or hot battery pack will greatly reduce the number of times your battery pack can be recharged. RECHARGEABLE BATTERY INFORMATION: Note to Adults: DO NOT RECHARGE BATTERY PACK IF IT’S HOT. ALLOW IT TO COOL BEFORE RECHARGING. DO NOT RECHARGE A BATTERY PACK THAT SHOWS LEAKAGE OR CORROSION. DO NOT DISASSEMBLE THE BATTERY PACK. THE BATTERY PACK IS A SEALED RECHARGEABLE NICKELCADMIUM BATTERY. DO NOT DISPOSE OF THE BATTERY PACK IN FIRE. EXERCISE CAUTION IN HANDLING A HOT BATTERY PACK. IF BATTERY PACK AND/OR CHARGER ARE WET, THOROUGHLY DRY BEFORE CHARGING. DO NOT RECHARGE NONRECHARGEABLE BATTERIES. • Remove rechargeable batteries before recharging. Recharge batteries only under adult supervision. • Regularly examine for damage to the plug, enclosure and other parts. In the event of any damage, the toy must not be used with the transformer until the damage has been repaired. • This toy is not intended for children under 6 years old. The transformer is not a toy. THIS PRODUCT USES A NICKEL-CADMIUM RECHARGEABLE BATTERY PACK. BATTERY MUST BE RECYCLED OR DISPOSED OF PROPERLY.
