Safety instructions

• WARNING! Not for children under 36 months. Danger of suf-
focation due to small parts which can be swallowed by children.
Attention: Functional clamping danger.

• WARNING!
This toy contains magnets or magnetic components. Magnets stick­ing together or becoming attached to a metallic object inside the hu­man body can cause serious or fatal injury. Seek immediate medical
help if magnets are swallowed or inhaled.

• The transformer is not a toy! Do not short-circuit the transformer’s
connections! Note to parents: Regularly inspect the transformer for
damage to the cable, plug or housing! Only operate the toy with rec­ommended transformers! The transformer may no longer be used
if it is damaged! Only operate the racetrack with a transformer! If
play is interrupted for longer periods, it is recommended to separate
the transformer from the power supply. Do not open transformer or
speed controller housings!

Important note to parents:

Transformers and power supply units are not suitable to be used as
toys. The use of such products needs to be constantly supervised
by the parents.

• Regularly check the track and cars for damage to cables, plugs
and housings! Replace defective parts.

• The car racetrack is not suitable for outdoor operation or operation
in wet locations! Keep away from liquids.

• Do not place any metal parts onto the track to avoid short-circuits.
Do not place the track in the immediate vicinity of delicate objects,
as these could be damaged by cars hurled from the track.

• Pull the plug before cleaning the racetrack! Only use a damp cloth
for cleaning, no solvents or chemicals. When it is not in use, store
the track in a dry and dust-protected location, preferably in the origi­nal cardboard box.

• Do not operate race track at face- or eye-level – risk of injury due
to cars being catapulted off the track.

• Misuse of transformer can cause electrical shock.

• The toy must only be used with a transformer for toys.

Note:

The vehicle may only be operated again in a completely assembled
condition. Assembly may only be carried out by an adult.

Assembly instructions

+ 2 + 3

Before assembling please insert the connecting clips

in the track as shown in figure

1

. Stick tracks together on a flat

base. Move the connecting clips according to figure

2

in direction
of the arrow until they audibly snap in. The connecting clip may also
be inserted later. The connecting clips can be removed into both
directions by simply pressing down the clamped nose (see fig.

3

).

4

Fastening: To fasten the track sections on a board, it is neces-

sary to use the track section fasteners (Item no. 85209, not con­tained in the package).

Note:

Carpeting is not a suitable foundation on which to build the track be­cause of static charging, formation of fluff and ready inflammability.

Guard Rails and Supports

1 2

3 4

1

Guard rails: Guard rail mounts are fitted by tilting them upwards

onto the verge of the track.

2

+ 3

Supporting raised sections: The shank of the ball pivot is

to be inserted into the square slots provided on the underside of the
track. The supports can be made higher by using the extensions.
The pedestal of the supports can be screwed to a base if required
(screws not included).

4

Supporting steep curves:

Slanting supports of the right height are provided to support steep
curves. Fix the nonadjustable supports at the beginning and end of
the curves. Insert the heads of the supports in the round slots of the
underside of the track.

Electrical connection

1

2

The connecting rail is the straight track with sockets for the trans­former and hand-held control unit.

1

The transformer’s plugs are plugged into the central socket.

2

The hand-held control unit’s plugs are plugged into the external
sockets.
Care should be taken that the + and – symbols on the plugs agree
with those on the connecting rail.

Advice: The toy must not be connected to extraneous electrical
equipment, plugs, cables or other objects: short-circuits and power
surges can thus be avoided. The Carrera Evolution racing track only
functions faultlessly with the original Carrera Evolution transformer.

Preparation of start

1 2

3

This Carrera Evolution vehicle ideally matches the Carrera track
system scale 1:24.

1

Make sure that the car’s guide keel is located inside the track
slot and that the double sliding contact is in contact with the current
carrying track. Place the cars onto the connecting track.

2

+ 3

Optimally setting up the grinders:

To ensure proper and continuous driving, slightly fan out the ends
of the contact brushes

2

and bend them towards the track as per

fig.

3

. Only the end of the contact brush should have contact to the
track and may be cut off slightly in case of wear. Dust and abrasion
should be removed from track material and sliding contacts from
time to time.
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.

Change of running direction

This is necessary and/or possible in case the running direction shall
be changed. Therefore the reversing switch at the car’s bottom side
has to be positioned accordingly.

Maintenance and care

1

2

To ensure a proper operation of the motor-racing circuit, all race­track 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.

Advice:

• It is recommended to always take out and change only one
grinder.

• Never pull the vehicle backwards, because the grinders could be
damaged otherwise.

Please carefully pull out the guide keel according to fig.

1

.

When changing the double contact brushes please take

care that in stage one the upper contact brush

is only
pulled out partly and that in stage two the double contact brush can
be pulled out completely with the contact brush

2 b

. For inserting

please proceed the same way.

Changing the rear axle

Take off the vehicle´s upper part from the chassis as per fig.

Insert new axle. Pay attention to the correct position of the axle
bearings (

).

Troubleshooting

Driving tips

Troubleshooting:

In case of any malfunctions, please check the following:

• Has the connection to the power supply been established
correctly?

• 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?

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 flaw­less operation.
