Dear Parents,
Power packs for toys are not suitable to be used as
toys. The use of power packs must always be done
under the supervision of adults.
Make sure you teach your children to use the power pack
only in the manner described in the instructions.
Make sure that you teach your children about the dangers
of the household current system.
Make sure you inspect the condition of the power pack
and its connections to the wall outlet for damage at regular
intervals (depending on how often the power pack is used
to play with the train), at least once a week. This must be
done with the power pack unplugged from the wall outlet.
If you have the slightest suspicion that there is damage,
the power pack may not be used again until it has been
checked and repaired by the Märklin Repair Department).
