THE RED LIGHT ON THE FRONT OF THE CONTROLLER SHOULD TURN RED. Your Jet Scream™ jet has preinstalled rechargeable batteries in the jet’s fuselage. Because the Controller’s AA batteries are used for 2 functions – charging and controlling, they will need to be replaced after every 20 – 25 flights. After each flight, store the jet in the package to prevent damage. REPAIRS CHARGER/CONTROLLER BATTERY INSTALLATION If the wings on your jet get damaged they can be easily repaired with clear tape as shown.

PRE-FLIGHT ENVIRONMENT CHECK

CHARGING YOUR JET 1. Push the ON/OFF switch to the LEFT to turn the jet OFF. 2. Flip the charge door open to reveal the charge nozzle. 4. Set the Charge/OFF/ ON switch to the left CHARGE position. 3. Push the charge nozzle all the way into the jet’s charge port located on the bottom of the jet. 1 4 3 2 FLYING INSTRUCTIONS 1. Fully extend the controller antenna. 3.

During the charging process, the green LED will blink. When the jet is fully charged the light will switch to a steady GREEN. 6. Remove charge nozzle gently from the jet’s charge port. FLYING INDOORS? NOTE: Always get a parent’s permission to fly your Jet Scream™ indoors. Location – Fly in a wide open room, far from breakable items – an empty double car garage or unfinished basement are great options. Avoid flying near vents and/or fans, as they may overpower the jet and make it difficult to control. 5. When launching the jet, use partial throttle. Refrain from using the directional toggle while launching the jet. Launch the jet against the wind and parallel to the ground. When preparing for take off, check the direction of the wind. Always launch your jet against the wind for the best take off and flight results. TIP: The wind will blow against your face, if you are facing the correct direction. Important Charging Information: • Before taking your initial flight, charge the jet for a complete charge cycle on your charger. • Depending upon the length of future play, you will not need to complete a full charge before each flight. NOTE: A shortened charge results in a shorter playtime (may take up to 1/2 hour to fully charge). Green LED 6 7. Store the charge nozzle and close the charge door. 7 1. Location – Fly in a large wide open, grassy location that is free of buildings, trees, overhead wires, and other obstructions. Do not fly near people or animals. 2. Weather – Fly on mild, sunny days. Do not fly in electrical storms, rain, sleet, snow or other adverse weather conditions. Do not fly if the temperature is below 45°F. In very cold temperatures, the jet will become fragile and the engine performance will decrease. 3. Wind Conditions – Do not fly in wind. Winds may overpower the jet and make it difficult to control. In windy conditions, it may appear as though you have no control over the jet. Holes in plug must align with pins in jet.

1. Turn the

Charger/ON/OFF to OFF by pushing the switch to the left. ONCE THE JET HAS LANDED LEFT TURN Move the direction toggle LEFT. To make the jet climb, ease the throttle forward.
