Radica 74026 - Manual

Get off the couch and into the arena!

The roar of your engine barely drowns out the roar of the crowd! You hit
the gas and your truck springs to life, tearing onto the arena floor.
Cheers mix with the sounds of crunching metal as you smash into other
monster trucks. You’re number one and on top of the world!

On the bottom of the main unit, open the battery compartment and insert
four (4) C batteries as indicated inside the compartment (alkaline batter-
ies recommended). Replace the battery compartment door.

play (if alkaline batteries are used). The game will not operate normally
when the batteries begin to run low. The screen may be blurred and
resetting the game may not work. Be sure to install fresh batteries. There
is also no memory function. All game data will be erased when the bat-
teries are replaced.

TV CONNECTION

NOTE:

into the audio-in jack, or if you would like to hear the sounds from both
the left and right audio channels, you can use a 2 into 1 audio cable
(available at your local electronics store) to allow you to connect both the
white and red plugs to the single audio-in jack.

If your TV does not have audio and video input jacks, you may connect
