3. Safety Information
- This product is for external use only as a replacement part for children's ride-on toys.
- Keep the components away from naked flames or direct heat sources.
- Do not mix old and new batteries, or different types of batteries in the remote control.
- Remove exhausted batteries from the remote control promptly.
4. Setup
4.1 Remote Control Battery Installation
The remote control requires two (2) AAA 1.5V batteries.
- Use a Phillips screwdriver to unscrew the screw on the back of the remote control.
- Remove the battery cover.
- Insert two AAA 1.5V batteries, ensuring correct polarity.
- Replace the battery cover and secure it with the screw.
4.2 Frequency Binding (First Use or Battery Replacement)
The remote control must be paired with the receiver for the first time or after replacing the remote control batteries.
- Ensure batteries are installed in the remote control.
- Long press the frequency key on the remote control for 2-4 seconds. The low speed LED lights on the remote will flash.
- Turn on the power of the ride-on car. The low speed LED lights on the remote will change from flashing to a steady, long light, indicating successful frequency binding.
- If the frequency binding fails (low speed LED lights continue to flash), remove the batteries from the remote control and repeat steps 1-3.
