Serious injury may occur. Never operate the vehicle on public streets as traffic accidents, personal injury and/or property damage may occur. This vehicle is ONLY to be driven in open areas safe for RC cars. Do NOT use this vehicle to chase pets or other animals. The receiver, steering servo and other electronics installed in this vehicle are merely splash-resistant, and are not intended to be submerged in water. Do not use or put this vehicle into water. Check the transmitter (radio controller) power level often and replace the batteries if they get low on power. Remove the batteries from the transmitter (radio controller) when not in use. Replace with fresh batteries if necessary. NEVER run this vehicle with low or old transmitter batteries. When this vehicle becomes stuck, do NOT try to muscle it out with the throttle. Doing so may cause damage to the motor and/or the ESC (Electronic Speed Controller). If the vehicle is stuck, pick it up by hand and set it down in a safe area. Check and clean obstacles before running again. Before running this vehicle, be sure the battery connectors are plugged in firmly. Any malfunction caused by unauthorized upgrading and modification of this vehicle, or related components, will void the warranty. OPERATING PRECAUTIONS: Be careful not to touch any moving parts when the vehicle is in use, or when servicing this vehicle as this may cause injury. To prevent excessive R.P.M. from damaging the motor, and/or the drive-train components, we suggest reducing the throttle while in the air during jumps. Never attempt to disassemble the motor, ESC, servo, or receiver. These electrical components have been calibrated for precision at the factory. If you purchase upgraded parts for this vehicle, be sure to install all the parts that come in the package. For example, if you upgrade the motor, you must upgrade the ESC and available drive-train components as well. This will limit component damage and failure. To run this vehicle, turn on the transmitter (radio controller) first and then the receiver. When you are done running this vehicle, turn off the receiver first, and then the transmitter (radio controller). Always have the transmitter (radio controller) turned on any time the vehicle is turned on to prevent a runaway vehicle.
