Using this Monster Jam RC Grave Digger truck is easy. First, insert 2 AAA batteries into the controller (the batteries are not included). Then, charge the truck using the provided USB cable. Once charged, turn on the controller and the truck. Use the dual - joystick controller to move the truck forward, backward, left, or right. The 2.4 GHz frequency gives you a range of up to 250ft, so you can have a great time racing it around. With the included ramp, you can create your own Monster Jam arena and perform stunts. When not in use, store the truck and controller in a dry place. Don't expose them to water or extreme temperatures. Periodically check the wheels and parts for any signs of wear. If something seems loose, you can refer to the instruction guide for tightening. Have a blast with your Monster Jam RC Grave Digger!
