Maintenance
1. Cleaning
To clean the truck, wipe it with a soft, damp cloth. Do not immerse the truck in water or use harsh chemicals, as this may damage the electronic components.
2. Battery Replacement
When the truck's lights dim, sounds become faint, or movements slow down, it is time to replace the batteries. Follow the battery installation steps outlined in the "Setup" section.
3. Water for Smoke Effect
Only use clean tap water for the smoke effect. Distilled water is recommended to prevent mineral buildup. Empty any remaining water from the reservoir before long-term storage.
