The Deluxe Snap Rover

®

Kit uses building blocks with snaps to

build the different electrical and electronic circuits in the projects.
Each block has a function: there are switch blocks, LED blocks,
different length wire blocks, etc. These blocks are in different colors
and have numbers on them so that you can easily identify them.
The circuit you will build is shown in color and numbers, identifying
the blocks that you will use and snap together to form a circuit.

For Example:

This is the switch block which is green and has the marking on it.

This is a wire block which is blue and comes in different wire
lengths. This one has the number , , , , , or on it
depending on the length of the wire connection required.

There is also a 1-snap wire that is used as a spacer or for
interconnection between different layers.

A large clear plastic base grid is included with this kit to keep the
circuit blocks together, it fits on top of the Rover body. You will see
evenly spaced posts that the different blocks snap onto, these keep
your circuit together. The base has rows labeled A-G and columns
labeled 1-10.

Next to each part in every circuit drawing is a small number in
black. This tells you which level the component is placed at. Place
all parts on level 1 first, then all of the parts on level 2, then all of
the parts on level 3, etc.

Jumper wires are used to connect your circuits to the batteries and
motors in the Rover body. Snap them on as shown in the projects.
The colors are interchangeable, so it doesn’t matter which color
you use (however the red and black wires are longer than the rest).

Note: While building the projects, be careful not to accidentally
make a direct electrical connection across the + and – snaps for
the batteries (a “short circuit”), as this may damage and/or quickly
drain the batteries.

Warning to Snap Circuits

®

owners: Do not use parts from other

Snap Circuits

®

sets with this kit unless directed to do so. The Snap

Rover

®

uses higher voltage which could damage those parts. Page

44 and our website www.snapcircuits.net has approved circuits
that you can use.
