All of us at Traxxas want you to safely enjoy your new Nitro 4-Tec 3.3.
Operate your Nitro 4-Tec sensibly and with care, and it will be exciting,
safe, and fun for you and those around you. Failure to operate your Nitro
4-Tec in a safe and responsible manner may result in property damage
and serious injury. The precautions outlined in this manual should be
strictly followed to help ensure safe operation. You alone must see that
the instructions are followed and the precautions are adhered to.

Important Points to Remember

This product is capable of extreme speed and acceleration! It is
intended for expert drivers only. Experience with nitro-powered
radio controlled models is required. The driver must exercise all
caution and accept full responsibility for their own safety, and the
safety of others nearby. Full-speed operation requires a large,
smooth running area free of obstacles and closed off to pedestrian
and automobile traffic.

Model engine fuel is dangerous and highly poisonous.

Always follow

all directions and precautions printed on the fuel container. Model
engine fuel is poisonous to humans and animals. Drinking the fuel can
cause blindness and death. Handle with care and respect.

Model engine fuel, especially when in a fuel dispensing bottle, may
look like a cool drink to a child.

Keep all fuel out of the reach of

children at all times. Do not place fuel containers on the ground
where children can get to them while you are driving.

Model engine fuel is flammable. Never allow smoking, sparks, heat or
flame in the presence of fuel or fuel vapors.

The engine, brakes, and exhaust system may become extremely hot
during use. Be careful not to touch the parts, especially when
refueling or stopping the engine.

For outdoor use only. Prolonged exposure to the engine exhaust
can be harmful. Avoid breathing the engine exhaust. Always run
your Nitro 4-Tec outdoors, in a well-ventilated area. Never run the
engine indoors.

Do not operate your Nitro 4-Tec at night, or anytime your line of sight to
the model may be obstructed or impaired in any way.

Never operate your Nitro 4-Tec in crowds of people or busy pedestrian
areas. Nitro 4-Tec is very fast and could cause injury to those unaware
of its presence.

Because Nitro 4-Tec is controlled by radio, it is subject to radio
interference from many sources beyond your control. Since radio
interference can cause momentary loss of control, always allow a
safety margin in all directions around your model to prevent collisions.

The engine can be loud. If the noise makes you uncomfortable, wear
ear protection. Be considerate of your neighbors by not running your
model early in the morning or late in the evening.

Most importantly, use good common sense at all times.
