Setup Instructions

The Hot Wheels City Super Gas Station playset consists of 8 pieces that require assembly. Follow these steps to set up your track:

  1. Carefully unbox all components of the playset.
  2. Identify the base pieces and connect them securely to form the foundation of the gas station.
  3. Attach the multi-level tower structure to the designated slots on the base.
  4. Connect the ramps and charging station elements to the main structure. Ensure all connections are firm to prevent the track from separating during play.
  5. The playset is designed for compatibility with other Hot Wheels City tracks (sold separately). If you wish to expand your track, align the connectors of the Super Gas Station with other track pieces and snap them into place.
  6. Place the included 1:64 scale car on the track to test for smooth movement.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Hot Wheels City Super Gas Station playset, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

  • Cleaning: The playset is made of plastic and metal. Wipe down the track and components regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the plastic.
  • Storage: When not in use, store the playset in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
  • Inspection: Periodically inspect all track connections and moving parts for any signs of wear or damage. Replace any broken pieces if necessary (replacement parts sold separately, if available).

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues during play, consider the following common troubleshooting tips:

  • Cars getting stuck: Ensure all track pieces are securely connected and properly aligned. Check for any small debris on the track that might obstruct car movement.
  • Charger mechanism not working smoothly: Verify that no foreign objects are lodged in the mechanism. Ensure the car is correctly positioned in the charging bay.
  • Track pieces separating: Double-check that all 8 pieces are firmly snapped together. If connecting to other Hot Wheels City tracks, ensure those connections are also secure.
