SPECIAL CRASH AND REPAIR FEATURES
To belt the stunt dummy in:
1. First make sure the vehicle is re-set into its “un-crashed”
form. Then press down on the steering column till it snaps
in place. Insert one end of the lap belt into slot
2. Put the stunt dummy in the seat with his arms raised
above his head.
3. Insert the other end of the lap belt into slot
shoulder belt through the stunt dummy’s arms and then lower his arms,
inserting the steering wheel into the column.
4. Insert the end of the shoulder belt into slot
attached at all three points!
1. To crash your “vehicle”, just drive it FORWARDS into a wall or
other sturdy obstacle. When the front bumper hits, the front end
of your vehicle will crush and crumple!
2. To “repair” your Crash Buggy, just drive your vehicle
BACKWARDS into a wall or other sturdy obstacle. When the rear
bumper hits, your vehicle will repair itself! Now you’re ready for
more race-n-crash fun!
3. The stunt dummy can work two different ways. If you DON’T belt
him in with the special seat belt, he’ll go flying when you crash! If
you DO belt him in, he’ll stay safe and sound in his seat! If he’s not
wearing the belt, make sure it’s not left loose in the drivers seat – it
might keep flying out.
4. Remember: if the stunt dummy flies out of the vehicle, you’ll need
to replace him by hand. First complete step No. 2. Then press down
on the steering wheel and snap the stunt dummy back into place.
