10. Trouble Running the Train
• If the train does not run, check to make sure
that the connections have been done as shown
in Section 6.
• Check to make sure that the batteries in the
IR Controller have been installed correctly or
whether they are run down.
• Check to see if there a short circuit or an
overload on the layout or if a locomotive or car
is derailed. Correct the short circuit or the over-
load by reducing the number of power consum-
ers (locomotives, lighted cars, etc.), and set the
derailed locomotive or car back on the rails.
• Remove damaged cars and locomotive from the
train and have them repaired. Defective cars
and a defective locomotive must not be used
any more.
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. By reusing old devices,
materially recycling, or recycling in some other
form of old devices such as these you make an
important contribution to the protection of our
environment. Please ask your city, town,
community, or county authorities for the location
of the appropriate disposal site.
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.
