3. Operating Instructions
3.1 Basic Operation
The Hot Wheels Mazda RX7 FD is a free-rolling die-cast vehicle. To operate, simply place the vehicle on a flat, smooth surface and push it forward or backward. The wheels are designed to roll freely, allowing for various play scenarios.
3.2 Compatibility
This vehicle is compatible with most Hot Wheels track sets (sold separately). Ensure the track pieces are properly connected before use to prevent the vehicle from derailing or getting stuck.
4. Maintenance
4.1 Cleaning
To clean the vehicle, gently wipe it with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using water, cleaning solutions, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the paint, decals, or metal finish.
4.2 Storage
Store the Hot Wheels vehicle in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause fading of paint and decals. Keep the vehicle in its original packaging or a protective display case to prevent dust accumulation and accidental damage.
5. Troubleshooting
5.1 Wheels Not Rolling Smoothly
Issue: The vehicle's wheels do not roll freely or get stuck.
Solution: Inspect the wheel axles for any debris, hair, or obstructions. Gently remove any foreign material using tweezers or a small brush. Ensure the wheels are not bent or damaged. If a wheel is bent, gentle manipulation may correct it, but excessive force can cause breakage.
5.2 Paint or Decal Wear
Issue: The paint or decals on the vehicle show signs of wear, chipping, or peeling.
Solution: This is typically cosmetic wear that can occur with regular play or handling. No repair is generally possible for such wear. To minimize further damage, handle the vehicle with care and avoid abrasive surfaces.
