Safety at a Glance
The Ruko 1601PRO is a high-performance RC vehicle intended for users aged 14 and older. Users are responsible for their own conduct and any damage caused during operation. Always adhere to local regulations and the safety guidelines provided to prevent personal injury or property damage.
Battery Safety Guidance
Proper battery care is critical for safety and performance. Use only a 5V/2A adapter for charging; fast chargers exceeding these specifications are strictly prohibited. Charging typically takes approximately 2.5 hours. Never overcharge the battery and disconnect it once fully charged. Avoid charging immediately after use when the battery is hot; allow it to cool to room temperature first. If the battery shows signs of swelling, overheating, or damage, discontinue use immediately. Store batteries in a cool, dry place at 50-60% charge level and remove them from the car when not in use.


Environment Guidelines
Operate the vehicle on flat, open ground away from pedestrians, public streets, and crowded areas. Avoid surfaces like sand, grass, or uneven terrain. For optimal drifting performance, choose a flat, low-friction surface. Keep the model away from high temperatures, direct sunlight, and moisture to prevent damage.

Preparation and Operation
Before starting, ensure both the car and transmitter have sufficient battery power. Turn on the car first, followed by the transmitter. Place the vehicle on level ground and ensure the front wheels are centered. Keep your fingers away from the transmitter throttle during setup to avoid accidental movement.
Maintenance and Safety Precautions
Handle the car with care, as the shell and internal components can become sharp or hot during operation. Avoid touching the motor and heat sink immediately after use to prevent burns. When removing fixing clips or the car shell, be cautious of sharp edges. Keep all small parts, wires, and batteries out of the reach of children and pets.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues, ensure the battery clip is securely fastened to prevent the battery from falling out during operation. Always route wires inside the car shell to prevent them from rubbing against the ground, which can cause damage. For further technical support, contact the manufacturer via the provided email or phone support channels.
