4. Setup
4.1. Assembly
The NERF Rebelle Codebreaker Crossbow Blaster requires no assembly. It is ready for use directly out of the packaging.
4.2. Loading Darts
- Ensure the blaster is not primed.
- Insert darts one by one into the 8-dart rotating drum.
- Push each dart firmly until it is fully seated within the drum. Darts must be pushed all the way in for proper firing.
4.3. Setting the Passcode
The blaster features a passcode lock for exclusive use. Refer to the specific instructions included in the physical packaging for setting and resetting your unique passcode. This mechanism prevents unauthorized firing of the blaster.
5. Operating Instructions
5.1. Firing the Blaster
- Ensure the passcode lock is disengaged (if set).
- Pull back the priming handle (bowstring) until it locks into place. This primes the blaster.
- Aim at your target, ensuring it is clear of people or animals.
- Pull the trigger to fire a dart.
- To rapid-fire, continue pulling the priming handle and trigger in quick succession. The 8-dart rotating drum will advance automatically.

6. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your blaster:
- Keep the blaster clean and free of dust and debris. Wipe with a dry cloth as needed.
- Store the blaster and darts in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Do not use water or chemical cleaners on the blaster.
7. Troubleshooting
- Darts not firing or jamming:
Ensure darts are fully inserted into the drum. If darts are not pushed all the way in, the blaster may not fire correctly. Check for any damaged darts and replace them if necessary. - Trigger locking unexpectedly:
The trigger lock mechanism can be sensitive. If the trigger locks, ensure your passcode is correctly entered and the lock is fully disengaged. Adjust the middle dial of the trigger lock if it feels too sensitive or is not engaging/disengaging properly. - Reduced firing range:
Ensure darts are in good condition and not worn out. Only use official NERF darts designed for this product.
