• The transformer is not a toy! Do not short-circuit the transformer’s
connections! Note to parents: Regularly inspect the transformer for
damage to the cable, plug or housing! Only operate the toy with rec-
ommended transformers! The transformer may no longer be used
if it is damaged! Only operate the racetrack with a transformer! If
play is interrupted for longer periods, it is recommended to separate
the transformer from the power supply. Do not open transformer or
speed controller housings!
Important note to parents:
Transformers and power supply units are not suitable to be used as
toys. The use of such products needs to be constantly supervised
by the parents.
• Regularly check the track, cars and charger for damage to cables,
plugs and housings! Replace defective parts.
• The car racetrack is not suitable for outdoor operation or operation
in wet locations! Keep away from liquids.
• Do not place any metal parts onto the track to avoid short-circuits.
Do not place the track in the immediate vicinity of delicate objects,

for cleaning, no solvents or chemicals. When it is not in use, store
the track in a dry and dust-protected location, preferably in the origi-

Before assembling please insert the connecting clips
in the track as shown in figure

Fastening:
To fasten the track sections on a board, it is neces-
sary to use the track section fasteners (Item no. 85209, not con-
tained in the package).
Note:
Carpeting is not a suitable foundation on which to build the track be-
cause of static charging, formation of fluff and ready inflammability.

the curves. Insert the heads of the supports in the round slots of the
underside of the track.
Before first use
Before first using the speed controller, the rechargeable battery
supplied

on the underside of the speed controller.
Connect the battery plug into the socket in the speed controller and
put the battery in place in the compartment. Finally screw down the

Care of the battery
To make sure the battery performs well for as long as possible, the
following points should be observed regarding its care and storage.
• Before first using them, new batteries should always be charged fully.
• With a fully-charged battery, continuous play is possible for up
to eight hours. When the battery power is falling off, range of the
speed controller will diminish. As soon as you notice this, the battery
should be fully recharged.
• If it is not to be used for an extended period, remove the battery
and store the controller at room temperature (16-18 °C) in a dry
place. To prevent a deep discharge of the battery, the stored battery
should be charged every 2 to 3 months.
After disconnecting the battery, you must bond the hand controller
to the connector track once again.
