FCS modules

1. Getting started

This manual applies to the following FCS modules compatible to the
Faller** Car System, so for:  

FCS-1 "Emergency vehicle light"

FCS-2 "Vehicle module"

FCS-3 "Bus module"

FCS-4 "Emergency vehicle module"

FCS-L "Lighting module"

Provided there are no other details given for particular sections, the
information given applies to all modules. 

How to use this manual

This manual gives step-by-step instructions for safe and correct fitting and
connecting of the module, and operation. Before you start, we advise you
to read the whole manual, particularly the chapter on safety instructions
and the checklist for trouble shooting. You will then know where to take
care and how to prevent mistakes which take a lot of effort to correct.
Keep this manual safely so that you can solve problems in the future. If
you pass the module on to another person, please pass on the manual
with it.

Intended use

The   FCS   modules   are  designed   to   be   operated   according   to   the
instructions   in   this   manual   in   model   building,   especially  in   vehicles
compatible to the Faller** Car-System. Any other use is inappropriate
and invalidates any guarantees.
The FCS modules should not be mounted by children under the age of
14. 
Reading, understanding and following the instructions in this manual
are mandatory for the user.
