Plug the USB cable into a compatible USB power source (e.g., computer, USB wall adapter).
The indicator light on the charger will show charging status (refer to charger instructions for specific light indications).
Once fully charged, disconnect the battery.
To install the battery in the RC car, carefully remove the body shell by pulling the clips. Insert the charged battery into its compartment and connect it. Secure the body shell back in place.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your X-TMAGA HS14323 RC Car, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

Problem	Solution
Stopped working after a few uses	Fully charge battery packs and ensure transmitter batteries are sufficient. Check if the vehicle can bind with the transmitter. Verify no damaged parts in the drivetrain, motor, steering servo, or ESC malfunction. Contact seller for support if issues persist.
Car won't run and steering won't work	Ensure battery power is sufficient. Check if the ESC indicator light is slowly blinking, indicating low power or low voltage protection. Check if drivetrains are not clogged, no stripped gears, no coarse noise, no floppy wheels, and no missing drive shafts.
Not going straight	Tune the Steering Trim on the transmitter. Slightly adjust the front wheel during use. Make sure steering links and servo are undamaged and tires are properly locked.
Batteries can't take charge	Check if the battery plug (3-wire) has come off. Check if the USB charging cable works. Do not leave batteries idle for a long time; charge them regularly to avoid over-discharging.
Car is out of control	Restart the controller. When turning on the controller switch, do not touch the throttle and steering wheel until it is bound to the car. Do not push and pull the trigger back and forth too rapidly. To go reverse, always center the trigger and then push it a second time. Try re-binding. If the problem persists, replace the transmitter and ESC.
One of the wheels does not turn	The drive shaft that drives the wheel may have come away or is damaged, or the wheel is not well secured.
Shuts off by itself	This problem may arise from low battery voltage cutoff or overheat cutoff. Charge the batteries or wait until the ESC is cooled down. If the problem still occurs, replace the new ESC.
No signal connection, binding failure	Try with fresh batteries and try in another place. Make sure you have not driven it out of range. If the problem still occurs, please contact us for parts/replacement service.
Not steering	Check if it does not steer properly or at all. Make sure the steering posts, steering links, or the servo saver and the steering servo are all in good working order. Ensure no objects are invading and hampering the steering system.
Missing parts	Although every car has been strictly tested before leaving the factory, inadvertent mistakes or damage during transportation may occur. If this is the case, please contact us for assistance.
The car runs itself when switched on	Please restart. Do not move the trigger and steering wheel until the vehicle has been bound with the transmitter. If the problem still occurs, please contact us for assistance.
