Quick answer
Install 3 AAA batteries in the module under the cab, press the roof button for light & sound, and manually rotate the ladder and pump handles for realistic firefighting play.
Why the Sprinter Fire Engine is a great choice for play
The Bruder 02673 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Fire Engine combines a detailed vehicle with interactive features. The light & sound module adds realism, while the rotating ladder and pump let kids simulate firefighting scenarios. This model fits well into a larger Bruder city or emergency vehicle collection.
Battery installation tips
The light & sound module requires 3 AAA batteries (not included). Access the battery compartment by lifting the cab roof. Use a small screwdriver to open the cover. Insert batteries with correct polarity to avoid damage. If the module doesn't activate, double-check battery orientation and contact points.
Step-by-step setup guide
- Install the batteries: Open the cab roof by gently lifting it. Use a small Phillips screwdriver to remove the battery compartment screw. Insert 3 AAA batteries with the correct polarity (match + and - markings). Close the compartment and secure the screw. Use fresh batteries for brightest lights and loudest sounds. Weak batteries cause dim or intermittent effects.
- Activate light & sound: Press the button on the roof of the cab. The module will produce siren sounds and flash LED lights. Press again to cycle through different sound patterns or turn it off. The module has multiple sound modes; test each one to find your child's favorite. Avoid pressing too hard to prevent damage.
- Operate the ladder: Rotate the ladder base manually to point it left or right. Extend the ladder sections by pulling them outward. Use the small knob on the ladder to adjust the tilt angle up or down. The ladder sections lock into place when fully extended. Do not force them past the stop point to avoid breakage.
- Use the pump: Turn the pump handle on the side of the vehicle. This rotates a visible water cannon on the roof. The cannon can be aimed by rotating it with your fingers. The pump handle turns smoothly but does not actually spray water. It's a mechanical action for imaginative play.
- Combine with other Bruder vehicles: Park the fire engine near a Bruder ambulance or police car to create emergency scenes. Use the ladder to rescue figures from a Bruder building or tree. The Sprinter's scale matches other Bruder 1:16 vehicles, so all accessories and figures are compatible.
