4. Operating Instructions

The Gorilla Rage Garage Attack Playset features an interactive gorilla mechanism that "attacks" cars in the garage bays.

1. Place Cars: Drive or place Hot Wheels vehicles into the two garage bays at the front of the playset.
2. Activate Gorilla: Locate the levers or buttons on the playset's base. Repeatedly press or manipulate these levers. After several activations, the gorilla figure will rise, lifting the garage structure and "attacking" the cars.
3. Reset: Push the garage structure back down until it locks into place, concealing the gorilla and resetting the mechanism for the next attack.
