Please note that Exclusiv/Evolution (analog system) and Carrera
DIGITAL 124/132 (digital system) involve two separate and completely independent systems. We hereby expressly indicate that
both systems must be kept separate when setting up the track, i.e.
no connecting rail from Exclusiv/Evolution may be used together
with the connecting rail and Black Box of the Carrera DIGITAL 124/132,
even if only one of the two connecting rails (Exclusiv/Evolution connecting rail or Carrera DIGITAL 124/132 connecting rail and Black
Box) is attached to the current supply. Furthermore, no other Carrera DIGITAL 124/132 components (switches, electronic lap counter,
pit stop) may be built into an Exclusiv/Evolution course, i.e. via analog operation.
Non-compliance with the above information may result in damage or
destruction of the respective Carrera DIGITAL 124/132 components.
In this case no warranty may be claimed.

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?
• Are the cars correctly coded to the according speed controller?
• The track‘s current feed will be switched off automatically for 5
seconds, if there is an electrical short circuit: this will be notifi ed by
audible and visual signals.
• Are the cars placed on the track in running direction? In case of
non-functioning push the running direction switch which is on the
car´s bottom.
• Are the correct guide keels being used and which mode has been
selected.
• Insert at least one standard straight in front of Black Box and lap
counter.
Note:
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.
