Operating Steps
Follow these steps to operate the RC truck:
- Power on the remote control truck and ensure it is stable. Slowly toggle the throttle joystick on the remote controller (refer to Diagram 1) to test forward and backward movement.
- Place the remote control truck on the ground. Slowly toggle the rudder joystick on the remote controller (refer to Diagram 2) to check if the wheels rotate correctly.
Diagram 1: Shows a hand tilting a remote controller's joystick forward for 'Forward' and backward for 'Backward' movement.
Diagram 2: Shows a hand tilting a remote controller's joystick left for 'Left Rotation' and right for 'Right Rotation'.

Maintenance
Follow these maintenance steps to keep your RC truck in good condition:
- 1. Remove the battery from the remote control tank when it is not in use.
- 2. Wipe off any sand, mud, or dust from the truck.
- 3. Apply anti-rust oil to the external metal parts (sold separately) if required.
- 4. Place the remote control tank and the RC vehicle separately for storage when they are not in use.
Battery Storage
Proper battery storage is crucial for longevity:
- 1. For long-term storage, do not fully charge the lithium battery. This helps prevent passivation and slows down self-discharge.
- 2. Store the lithium battery in a dry indoor space with an appropriate temperature, ideally between 10°C and 30°C.
- 3. To maintain battery activity and performance, conduct a charge cycle every three months.
