V. BATTERY CHARGING/CARE
X
CAUTION:
Use only the charger supplied with this
toy. Do not use any other charging source.
Use only Tyco® R/C 7.2v NiCd battery packs. Other batteries
may leak or rupture, causing personal injury and damage.
1. Plug the wall pack charger into a standard wall outlet.
2. Connect the battery pack’s wire connector to the wall pack
charger connector. Make certain the two connectors are
tightly snapped together.
3. To disconnect the wires, push down on the connector clip
and pull apart.
4. After charging, the battery will feel warm. This condition is
normal for fully charged batteries.
5. New battery packs must be charged for 5 1/2 hours the first
two times charged. Subsequent charges will require 4
hours. Charging the battery pack for more than 5 1/2 hours
will not give you a longer running time. 5 1/2 hours is all that
is required for a fully charged battery pack.
6. Unlike alkaline batteries, which lose power gradually, a NiCd
(Nickel-Cadmium) battery will run for its normal running time
and then lose most of its power at once. That’s how you’ll
know it’s time to recharge the battery pack.
7. 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:
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.

NICKEL-CADMIUM BATTERY.
EXERCISE CAUTION IN HANDLING A HOT BATTERY PACK.
IF BATTERY PACK AND/OR CHARGER ARE WET,

VI. CONSUMER INFORMATION:
QUICK TIPS
q
When the 4AA batteries in the vehicle are running low the
sound effects and motor will cut off. You'll then hear a
10-second beep. Turn the vehicle OFF before changing new
AA batteries and 7.2V battery pack. When the 7.2v SubC NiCd
is low or encounters a stall, the unit will cut the motors and
turn off the sound effects. The unit will beep as long as the
user continues to press the remote control.
w
Your vehicle's running time may change depending on your
driving style.
e
Radio interference can make your vehicle run badly.
Interference can be caused by other R/C vehicles running
on the same frequency; electrical wires; large buildings;
CB radios; or other wireless gear. Try to stay away from
these!
r
Point your transmitter antenna up - not down toward your
vehicle. If your vehicle gets too far away, it won't work
properly.
t
Don’t drive your vehicle in sand or through water or snow.
If your vehicle does get wet, wipe with a towel and allow it
to dry completely.
