(or a recharge). Your vehicle's running time may change depending on your driving style. 2. Radio interferance can effect your vehicle's perform-
ance. Interference can be caused by other R/C vehi-
cles running on the same frequency, electrical wires, large buildings or CB radios. Try to stay away from these!
3. Point your transmitter antenna up - not down toward your vehicle. If your vehicle gets too far away, it won't work properly. If your transmitter has an antenna carry-loop feature, make sure the antenna is removed from the holder and straightened before operating. 4. Dont drive your vehicle in sand or through water or snow. 5. Dont store your vehicle near heat or in direct sunlight. Always turn switches OFF and remove all batteries for storage. 1 4 3 2 5 TROUBLESHOOTING - PROBLEM? - SOLUTIONS SYMPTOM PROBABLE CAUSE CORRECTION Vehicle runs slowly or will not run.
