2.1 Unboxing and Initial Inspection

1. Carefully remove the remote control shark and all accessories from its packaging.
2. Inspect all components for any signs of damage. If any parts are damaged or missing, contact customer support.

2.2 Battery Installation and Charging

The shark toy uses a modular lithium battery, and the remote control requires its own batteries (included). Ensure proper installation and charging for optimal performance.

1. For the Shark Toy: Locate the battery compartment on the underside of the shark. Insert the modular lithium battery, ensuring it clicks securely into place. Close the compartment cover firmly to maintain its waterproof seal.
2. For the Remote Control: Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote control. Insert the required batteries (typically 2 C batteries, included) according to the polarity markings. Close the compartment.
3. Charging the Shark Battery: Connect the modular lithium battery to the provided USB charging cable. Connect the USB cable to a suitable power source (e.g., computer USB port, USB wall adapter). The charging time is approximately 50 minutes. The indicator light on the charger will change to indicate a full charge.

4.2 Cleaning and Storage

• Ensure the shark toy and remote control are completely dry before storing.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your 4DRC 4D-S6 Remote Control Shark Toy, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Toy not turning on: Ensure the modular battery is fully charged and correctly installed in the shark. Check that the remote control batteries are fresh and correctly inserted.
• Toy not responding to remote: Verify that both the shark and remote are powered on and successfully paired. Ensure the shark is placed in water, as it features an off-water sensing safety mechanism.
• Short play time: The battery may not be fully charged, or it might be nearing the end of its lifespan. Ensure the battery is charged for the recommended 50 minutes.
• Water spray not working: Check for any blockages in the water spray nozzle. Ensure the shark is sufficiently submerged in water.
• Lights not working: Check for proper battery connection and ensure the light function is activated on the remote.
