• Remove damaged cars and locomotive from the
train and have them repaired. Defective cars
and a defective locomotive must not be used
any more.
• Mechanical resistance by the model is
recognized by the decoder. The decoder then
switches the motor off with blinking headlights.
When the mechanical problems have been
corrected, the model, after it had been without
current, can be put back into operation.
11. Cleaning and Maintenance
• Check to see if hair or dirt gets on the axles on
the train and remove this hair or dirt from the
axles with the help of a pair or tweezers so that
the train runs correctly.
• The train can be wiped with a dry, lint-free cloth.
• Additional maintenance information can be
found in Section 15.
12. Disposing
Notes on environmental protection:
Products marked with a trash container
with a line through it may not be
disposed of at the end of their useful
life in the normal household trash. They
must be taken to a collection point for
the recycling of electrical and electronic devices.
There is a symbol on the product, the operating
instructions, or the packaging to this effect. The
materials in these items can be used again
according to this marking. Help us to protect the
environment and conserve resources and bring
this device to a corresponding disposal point/
dealer free of charge. For disposal-related
queries, contact the organisation responsible for
waste disposal or your specialist retailer.
Batteries Do Not Belong in the
Household Trash! Every user in the EC
area is legally obligated to turn in
batteries at a collection point in his
community or at a dealer. The batteries
are then disposed of appropriately in order to
protect the environment.
Batteries containing dangerous materials are
marked with this symbol and with chemical sym-
bols (Cd = Cadmium, Hg = Mercury, Pb = Lead).
