CHARGING THE BATTERY

The BULLDOG BUGGY uses an internal rechargeable battery and is not replaceable. If the battery no longer stays charged, dispose of it properly according to local disposal requirements
CAUTION: If the rechargeable battery leaks fluid, dispose of the vehicle immediately. Do not allow fluid to come in contact with skin or eyes

1. Make sure the power switch located at the bottom of the buggy is turned to the off position

2. Insert the USB-C cable into the port located at the bottom of the buggy. IMPORTANT: Do not use excessive force when connecting the USB-C cable. If there is resistance, check alignment and try again

3. Connect the other end of the USB-C cable into your charging source. The LED indicator turns on while the buggy is charging and is green when the buggy is fully charged.
   Note: The average charging time is approximately 1.5 hours (via 5.0V /1 A USB wall charger)

4. The LED indicator on the remote will begin to flash when the buggy’s battery needs to be recharged. The buggy will run for up to 15 minutes on a full charge

PAIRING

Your BULLDOG BUGGY utilizes an automatic 2.4GHz digital channel selection system that allows up to 10 individual players to race side by side in the same wireless range without interference.

FOR SOLO DRIVERS

1. Before starting, make sure the power switches for both the remote control and buggy are turned off
2. Turn on the remote control by moving the on/off power switch to on. The LED indicator light will start flashing slowly indicating that the remote control is ready for syncing.
3. Next turn on the buggy and set it down on a flat surface. The car dome LED lights will be flashing slowly indicating that the buggy has power and is ready for syncing
4. Both the remote control and buggy should stop flashing once successfully paired. The remote control LED indicator will be solid indicating it is in standby mode and ready for use
5. If pairing is unsuccessful the remote control and buggy will go into sleep mode. Wait 60 seconds, then turn off both the remote control and buggy and repeat steps 1 – 4
6. If the remote control and buggy have not been used for 5 or more minutes, both will turn off and need to be restarted

1. Make sure to power off all RCs and controllers

2. One by one, each player should sync their RC and controller by following the steps listed in the Solo Drivers section.
