9. Information about Operating the Train

• When running the train, make sure that the remote controller is always pointed at the train.
  If the train goes outside of the range of the remote controller (approximately 6 meters / 20 feet) it will go further but cannot be controlled any more.
• After 5 minutes without a signal set at go by the remote control, the train remains stopped. It can be started again by any signal set at go. After 10 minutes without a signal set at go, the train shuts off. The train must first be turned on again at the controller in order for it to start again.

• No obstacle can be allowed between the train and the remote controller.

• Do not turn the remote controller away from the train.

9.1 Operating with 2 Trains

Two trains can be operated independently of each other on the same layout. To do this, you must set one train and remote controller to switch setting G-G (1) and the second train and remote controller to H-H (2). The switch settings for the train and remote controller must agree with each other!

10. Trouble Running the Train

• If the train does not run, check to make sure that the rechargeable battery for the train is charged up. If necessary, charge up the rechargeable battery for the train. If the rechargeable battery for the train is charged up and the train still does not react, check the batteries for the remote controller. If necessary, replace the batteries for the remote controller.
• If the train runs noticeably slower or comes to halt while you are playing with it, charge up the rechargeable battery. Pay attention to the automatic shutoff time! (See section 9)
• If the train is damaged, it may not be used anymore. If another car or powered car is damaged, take it out of the train and do not use it anymore.
• If the range of the remote controller decreases, then the batteries for the remote controller need to be replaced.

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.
• Recharge the battery no later than 6 months after not being used in order to avoid deep discharge. Deep discharges damage the battery, reduce the performance, and shorten the possible running time for the unit.
• The traction tire on the powered axle can be replaced if necessary. The traction tire is available under item number E284 219.
