Setup

Operating Instructions

The Hot Wheels Tesla Cybertruck is a free-rolling die-cast vehicle designed for imaginative play and display. It does not require batteries or electronic components.

• Play: Push the vehicle along a flat surface to simulate driving. It is compatible with most Hot Wheels tracks and playsets (sold separately), though specific compatibility may vary.
• Display: This model is also suitable for display in a collection. Place it on a stable, flat surface away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to preserve its condition.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: To clean the die-cast model, gently wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or excessive water, as these can damage the paint finish or plastic components.
• Storage: Store the model in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and high humidity. For collectors, consider storing it in its original packaging or a protective display case to prevent dust accumulation and damage.
• Handling: Handle the model by its body rather than its wheels or delicate parts to prevent bending or breakage.

Troubleshooting

Most issues with die-cast models are related to physical damage. If you encounter problems, consider the following:

• Wheels Not Rolling Smoothly: Check for any debris lodged in the axles or wheels. Gently remove any obstructions. Ensure the axles are not bent.
• Paint Chipping/Scratches: This is typically due to normal wear and tear or impact. While minor cosmetic damage is common with play, significant chipping may indicate a manufacturing defect. Refer to the warranty information for details.
• Broken Parts: If a part breaks off, assess if it can be reattached with appropriate adhesive (e.g., super glue for plastic/metal, used sparingly). For manufacturing defects, consult the warranty.
