It’s time to replace ALL 4 vehicle batteries andtransmitter battery. This is absolutely the #1 cause of problems!2.Your vehicle runs on either 27MHz frequency or 49MHz frequency (see frequency labels on vehicle and transmitter).In order to race or run 2 vehicles together, they must be on different frequencies.3.Transmitter has a range of about 35 feet. Don’t drive too far or you may lose control of your vehicle. If vehicle goes out of range, try lifting transmit-ter high into air to temporarily increase range.4.Radio interference can interfere with the control of your vehicle. Buildings, power wires, other R/C transmitters, or CB radio can all cause problems.Pick a place to drive that’s away from these things.5.Hold Transmitter so antenna points up, not toward the vehicle. Keep vehicle within range to keep control.6.Water, snow and sand can cause problems. Keep away from them. Wipe vehicle clean and dry after each use, including inside battery compart-ments.7.Keep vehicle and Transmitter away from heat and direct sunlight.8.This product is equipped with numerous parts including precision electronic circuits.
