Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.
Never leave dead or weak batteries in the Surf Monster or the transmitter.
If you will not be using the surfboard for a week or more7 remove the batteries
from both the transmitter and the surfboard. Batteries can leak chemicals that can
damage electronic parts.
In the Transmitter

recommend a RadioShack alkaline battery.

2. Put the battery in the compartment as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and -)
marked inside.
3, Replace the cover and press it down to snap it shut.

Your Surf Monster requires one 9.6V battery pack for power. For the best
performance and longest life, we recommend RadioShack alkaline batteries.

2. Plug the battery pack connector into the connector found inside the battery
compartment
3, Carefully tuck the wire into the compartment recess and insert the battery pack
So that it lies flat in the compartment.
4. Replace the battery compartment cover and tighten the screws to secure the
battery compartment cover.
NOTES:
Since the battery compartment cover with a surfer is packed separately, so the
consumer makes sure the compartment is fixed on the body of the surfboard
before playing the Surf Monster,
If the Surf Monster moves slowly or not at all, replace the Surf Monster's batteries.
DRIVING THE SURF MONSTER

with large waves,
- Never touch the propeller while it is spinning, and never put your fingers near the
propeller when the surfboard is turned on.
~ Never play outside during thunderstorms.
- Never play with your surfboard in strong winds.
- When the surfboard goes outside the transmitter‘s control range, it stops Hold the
transmitter as high as possible with the antenna vertical to try to re-establish contact.

HELPFUL HINTS
Running your surfboard continuously for long periods generates high heat levels.
Heat causes the most wear and tear on the motor To keep heat levels down, when
your surfboard' batteries run down, let the surfboard cool at least 10 minutes before
installing new batteries.
If the Surf Monster slowly and you have installed fresh batteries, check the
propeller mechanism for debris. ‘

Monster. If this happens, move the Surf Monster and its transmitter away from the
CBA

same frequency (27 MHZ).
