Maintenance and care
1
2
To ensure a proper operation of the motor-racing circuit, all race-
track components should be regularly cleaned. Pull the plug prior to
cleaning.
1
Racetrack:
Keep the track surface and track slots clean with a
dry cloth. Do not use any solvents or chemicals for cleaning. When
it is not in use, store the racetrack in a clean and dust-protected
location, preferably in the original cardboard box.
2
Car check:
Clean axle and wheel bearings, pinion gears, gear-
wheels and bearings and lubricate using a resin- and acid-free
grease. You can use a toothpick or similar as aid. Regularly check
the condition of sliding contacts and tyres.
Troubleshooting
Driving tips
Troubleshooting:
In case of any malfunctions, please check the following:
• Has the connection to the power supply been established cor-
rectly?
• Have transformer and speed controllers been connected correctly?
• Are the track connections faultless?
• Are the racetrack and track slots clean and free of any foreign
objects?
• Are the sliding contacts in order and do they make contact with
the track slot?
• Are the cars correctly coded to the according speed controller?
• The track‘s current feed will be switched off automatically for 5
seconds, if there is an electrical short circuit: this will be notified by
audible and visual signals.
• Are the cars placed on the track in running direction? In case of
non-functioning push the running direction switch which is on the
car´s bottom.
Note:
During operation small car parts as spoilers or mirrors may get off or
brake due to being original detailed parts of the car model. To avoid
this it is possible to remove them before operation.
Driving technique:
• You can drive fast along the straight track but you should brake
before the curve and then accelerate again when coming out of the
curve.
• Do not fasten or block the vehicles when the motor is running:
overheating or damage to the motor could result otherwise.
Note:
When using track systems which are not manufactured by
Carrera the existing guide keel has to be replaced by the special
guide keel (#85309). While using the Carrera crossing (#20587) or
high banked curve 1/30° (#20574) slight driving noise might occur
which is due to the full-scale genuineness and does not affect flaw-
less operation.

Technical specifications
Output voltage: Toy transformer
14,8 V
51,8 VA
Electricity modes:
1.) Operating mode = cars are operated via speed controllers
2.) Idle mode = speed controllers not activated, no game
3.) Stand-by mode = after approx. 20 minutes idle mode the
connecting section switches to stand-by mode. LED flashes at
long intervals.
CURRENT CONSUMPTION < 1 watt / 1w
By operating the speed controller the stand-by mode is finished,
the racetrack returns to idle-mode again.
4.) Off-state = power supply unit disconnected from mains supply
