Operation

Remote Control Functions

Image: A visual guide to the remote control, illustrating the "Lift/Lower Button" for adjusting car height, the steering wheel for "Left" and "Right" turns, and the trigger for "Forward" and "Backward" movement. The image also highlights the 2.4GHz long-distance capability.

• Forward/Backward: Use the trigger on the remote control. Pull to move forward, push to move backward.
• Left/Right Steering: Rotate the steering wheel on the remote control to turn the car left or right.
• Lift/Lower Function: Press the dedicated button on the remote control to switch between On-Road and Off-Road driving modes, which adjusts the car's body height.
• Steering Angle Trim: If the car veers left or right when driving straight, use the trim adjustment dial on the remote control to fine-tune the steering angle until it drives straight.

Driving Modes

The CROBOLL RC Car features two distinct driving modes, adjustable via the remote control's lift/lower button, to optimize performance across different terrains.

Image: The RC car demonstrating its two driving modes. The top image shows the "On-Road Mode" with a lower body height (1.2 inches clearance), suitable for smoother surfaces. The bottom image shows the "Off-Road Mode" with a raised body height (2.4 inches clearance) and an increased climbing angle of up to 75°, ideal for navigating rocks and uneven terrain. This illustrates the one-button body height adjustment feature.

• On-Road Mode: The car's body is lowered, providing a more stable and agile experience for flat surfaces like pavement, grass, or smooth dirt roads.
• Off-Road Mode: The car's body is raised, increasing ground clearance and allowing for better navigation over obstacles such as rocks, stones, and uneven terrain. This mode enhances the car's climbing ability.

Driving Environment

The CROBOLL RC Car is designed for various terrains, including sand, highway, grass, and stone. Avoid driving in deep water or extremely muddy conditions to prevent damage to electronic components.

Safety Precautions

• Always operate the RC car in open areas, away from people, pets, and obstacles.
• Do not operate near public roads or in crowded places.
• Avoid driving in wet conditions or through puddles to protect electronic components.
• Supervise children during operation.
• The car features auto-protection functions for over-heating, over-current, and auto cutoff to ensure safety.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: After each use, especially when driven off-road, gently clean the car to remove dirt, dust, and debris. Use a soft, dry cloth or a small brush. Avoid using water or chemical cleaners directly on electronic parts.
• Battery Care:
  • Always disconnect and remove the battery from the car when not in use.
  • Store batteries in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
  • Do not overcharge or over-discharge batteries.
  • If the car will not be used for an extended period, charge the battery to approximately 50% before storage.
• Storage: Store the RC car and remote control in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Remove batteries from both the car and remote if storing for long periods.
• Component Check: Periodically inspect the wheels, suspension, and body for any loose parts or damage. Tighten screws as needed.
