e) Turning the transmitter on
Always turn the transmitter on before connecting the rechargeable battery pack with the drive control.
If required, check the LEDs to see whether the inserted rechargeable batteries/batteries are still sufficiently charged.
• When all 3 LEDs are lit, the batteries/rechargeable batteries are fully charged.
• When the green LED goes off (only the red and the yellow one are still lit), the batteries/rechargeable batteries are
weak and need to be replaced soon. However, the transmitter and the vehicle can still be operated properly with this
battery/rechargeable battery status.
• If only the red LED is still lit, the batteries/rechargeable batteries are spent and must be exchanged for new ones.
Stop operating the vehicle and turn it off. Then exchange the batteries or rechargeable batteries for new ones.
f) Connecting the battery pack to the drive control
Prior to connecting the rechargeable battery pack to the drive control, activate the remote control transmitter (see
chapter 9. d) and 9. e).
To prevent a sudden starting of the drive and therefore an uncontrolled starting of the model (e.g. if the
trimming for the drive is maladjusted), place the model vehicle on a suitable box or similar so that the
wheels can turn freely.
Switch off the drive control.
The switch for turning the drive control on or off is located on the side directly
next to the drive control (see arrow in the image on the right).
Next to it on the chassis there is a marking indicating "I" (drive control turned
on) and "0" (drive control turned off)
Now connect the rechargeable battery pack to the drive control.
If you are using self-composed rechargeable battery packs, observe the
correct polarity (red cable = plus, black cable = minus).
g) Activating the drive control
Put the switch (also see chapter 9. f) to the position "I" (= turned on). Observe the marking on the chassis.
