(seearrowintheguretotheright)intothe„OFF“positi-
onforthis.Observethelabelsnexttotheslider.
Check the setting of the battery type (see chapter 9. c).
Then switch on the transmitter (see chapter 9. d) and
9. e).
Remember to put the trimming for the steering and driving
functions into the centre position.
To prevent sudden start-up of the wheels and therefore uncontrolled starting of the model, place the model

reach into the drive. Do not hold the wheels.
Now connect the drive battery to the speed controller. Ensure correct polarity (red cable = plus/+, black cable =
minus/-).
