Safety instructions
•
WARNING!
Not for children under 36 months. Danger of suf-
focation due to small parts which can be swallowed by children.
Warning: Functional clamping danger.
•
WARNING!
This toy contains magnets or magnetic components. Magnets stick-
ing together or becoming attached to a metallic object inside the hu-
man body can cause serious or fatal injury. Seek immediate medical
help if magnets are swallowed or inhaled.
• 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 and cars 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,
as these could be damaged by cars hurled from the track.
• Disconnect the plug before cleaning or servicing the racetrack!
Only use a damp cloth 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 original cardboard box.
• Do not operate race track at face- or eye-level – risk of injury due
to cars being catapulted off the track.
• Misuse of transformer can cause electrical shock.
• The toy is only to be connected to Class II equipment
bearing the following symbol.
• The toy must only be used with a transformer for toys.
• Not to be used with controllable transformers.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
its service agent or similary qualified persons in order to avoid danger.
Note:
The vehicle may only be operated again in a completely assembled
condition. Assembly may only be carried out by an adult.

Before assembling please insert the connecting clips
in the track as shown in figure
1
.
Stick tracks together on a flat
base. Move the connecting clips according to figure
2
in direction
of the arrow until they audibly snap in. The connecting clip may also
be inserted later. The connecting clips can be removed into both
directions by simply pressing down the clamped nose (see fig.
3
).

Fastening:
To fasten the track sections on a board, it is nec-
essary to use the track section fasteners (Item no. 20085209, not
contained 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.
Guard Rails and Supports

Guard rails:
Guard rail mounts are fitted by tilting them upwards
onto the verge of the track.

Supporting raised sections:
The shank of the ball pivot is
to be inserted into the square slots provided on the underside of the
track. The supports can be made higher by using the extensions.
The pedestal of the supports can be screwed to a base if required
(screws not included).
4
Supporting steep curves:
Slanting supports of the right height are provided to support steep
curves. Fix the nonadjustable supports at the beginning and end of
the curves. Insert the heads of the supports in the round slots of the
underside of the track.
Electrical connection

The connecting rail is the straight track with sockets for the trans-
former and hand-held control unit.
1
The transformer’s plugs are plugged into the central socket.
2
The hand-held control unit’s plugs are plugged into the external
sockets.
Care should be taken that the + and – symbols on the plugs agree
with those on the connecting rail.
Advice:
The toy must not be connected to extraneous electrical
equipment, plugs, cables or other objects: short-circuits and power
surges can thus be avoided. The Carrera Evolution racing track only
functions faultlessly with the original Carrera Evolution transformer.
