• The functions can be activated only in parallel. Serial activation of the functions is
not possible (Please note here the instructions for your controller).
• For optical reasons we recommend running this locomotive on curves with a radi-
us larger than R1 (> 600 mm / 23-2/3"), although running it on R1 is also possible.
• When running on R2 (780 mm / 30-2/3") and larger, the reproduction of the articula-
tion can be mounted on the locomotive (Figure 3 & 4).
• The locomotive cannot be switched to operation from catenary.
Mode of Operation Switch
A 2-position mode of operation switch is built in the locomotive floor on the side next
to the truck (Figure 1).

Sound
The whistle can also be activated with the LGB sound activating magnets (17050).
The activating magnet can be clipped into place between the ties on most sections
of LGB track.
Place the logos with the logo on the right side or left side of the track respectively in
order to activate a short blast / long blast on the whistle when the locomotive crosses
over this spot.
Pantographs
This model is equipped with electronically controlled pantographs. The rear pan-
tograph is raised and the front pantograph is lowered automatically depending on
the direction of travel (Function 7). The pantographs can also be optionally raised
manually (Function 3). Function F7 is active in analog operation.
The pantograph is powered by a servomotor. The pantograph may not be moved by
hand.
The pantographs can be fixed in the lowered position by clipping them into the
restraints.
General Note to Avoid Electromagnetic Interference:
A permanent, flawless wheel-rail contact is required in order to guarantee operation
for which a model is designed. Do not make any changes to current-conducting parts.
