First, ensure that the car is specifically meant for the Apptivity Hot Wheels game, and not a regular Hot Wheels car. You will be able to tell whether it is for Apptivity by looking for the contact points on the bottom of the car.
-
Ensure that the contact points are extended rather than retracted. There is a button on the bottom of the car that allows you to switch between traditional Hot Wheels car play (retracted) and Apptivity mode (extended).
-
Check the bottom of the car for debris, and wipe it with a clean, dry cloth.
-
Wipe your screen with a soft, dry cloth to ensure the best conductivity with the car.
-
Make sure you are holding the car in the right location in order for it to be recognized.
-
Hold it in the center and on the sides of the car while the tires are on the screen.
-
Make sure that you are not placing the car on the black or white frame around the iPad screen. You must keep the car only within the screen area.
-
Do not wear gloves or mittens since the car needs to come in contact with your fingertips.

-
Touch the screen with your finger to move forward to the next page.

Click the home button on your iPad to get to the home screen.
-
Then double-click the home button again. The multitasking bar will appear.
-
Touch the thumbnail of the Apptivity game until it wiggles, and then touch the minus button.
-
Then click the home button again, and restart the game by clicking the thumbnail for the game on your home screen.

You need to fine tune the spray nozzle by turning the adjustment nozzle all the way to the negative side (-). Then while holding the trigger down, slowly adjust the nozzle toward the positive side (+) until you get a nice even spray. You should also make sure that the pen is fully inserted by pushing it all the way into the slot on the spray gun until you hear/feel it click.
|
First insert the flexible stencils into the frame with the built-in peg fitting. Connect the frame onto the four posts on top of the car decoration turntable, and then adjust the height of the frame for tall and low cars by using the two detent locations. Remember that in order to spray using stencil, the airbrush must face directly down over the top of the car and spray through the stencil.
|
- If you have inserted different colored wax sticks next to each other, you may get some color blending (in which the wax from the two adjacent sticks mix when creating the car body).
|
You should place the Apptivity Hot Wheels car on the screen in that location in order to play.
|
You can, but the adhesive should be applied to a clean, smooth, dry surface when the temperature is above 50°F (10°C). If the temperature is below 50°F, you can heat the surface with a hair dryer before application.
|
Variations in Hot Wheels cars are the slight differences between cars of the same model. For example, with the many different wheel styles available, the same car model can have a wildly different look just by changing the wheels.

After the figures are connected, cranked up and the head is pushed, the “wrestling” feature does not last long.
- Crank the lever clockwise until it clicks, usually about 11 times, for full power battling.

Once Car Maker instructs you to pull the handle, you must immediately pull it all the way down in one continuous motion until you hear “Complete.” For best results, DO NOT pump handle when pulling it down and complete the injection within 2-3 seconds. If you do not pull it all the way down to complete the injection, Car Maker will keep repeating the phrase, “Please pull down handle.”

There is a silver-colored speed control button on the lower left side of the screen. The image on it is a gear box. Tap the button to move from “Stop” mode to “Slow” and “Fast” modes.

The WWE Power Slammers figures are difficult to connect at the arms the first couple of times. Each time you connect the figures, it will become easier and easier to connect.
The new figures released in the Fall 2013 will be easier to connect.

Make sure the pen is fully inserted by pushing it all the way into the slot on the spray gun until you hear/feel it click. Start spraying with the nozzle adjuster pointed all the way toward the negative side (-) and, while holding the trigger down, slowly move the adjuster toward the positive side (+) until you get a nice even spray. If you’re still having issues, please refer to the troubleshooting section below.
