• Mechanical resistance by the model is
recognized by the decoder. The decoder then
switches the motor off with blinking headlights.
When the mechanical problems have been
corrected, the model, after it had been without
current, can be put back into operation.
• Vibration or standing for long periods can
loosen individual building blocks. This causes
individual Light STAX light building blocks to
no longer light up. The building blocks must be
pressed on each other again firmly in order to
fix this.
11. Cleaning and Maintenance
• Never allow the Light STAX light building
blocks, the Mobile Power STAX Plus, and the
Sound STAX to be exposed to water! Just wipe
with a clean, damp cloth.
• Recharge the battery no later than 6 months
after not being used in order to avoid deep
discharge. Deep discharges damage the bat-
tery, reduce the performance, and shorten the
possible operating time.
• 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 witProducts 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.
Batteries containing dangerous materials are
marked with this symbol and with chemical sym-
bols (Cd = Cadmium, Hg = Mercury, Pb = Lead).
