Safety Notes
• This locomotive is to be used only with an operating system desi-
gned for it (Märklin AC, Märklin Digital, Märklin Systems, DCC).

are designed for your local power system.
• This locomotive must never be supplied with power from more than
one transformer.
• Pay close attention to the safety notes in the instructions for your
operating system.
• The feeder track must be equipped to prevent interference with
radio and television reception, when the locomotive is to be run in
conventional operation. The 104770 interference suppression set is
to be used for this purpose.

maximum of 2 meters / 78 inches long.
• Do not expose the model to direct sunlight, extreme changes in
temperature, or high humidity.

dard EN 60825-1.
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.
