SIFA

• The SIFA is disabled on startup, but can be activated with »SHIFT + NUM ENTER«. You can choose between basic SIFA and advanced SIFA.

Basic SIFA

• You must confirm SIFA within 30 seconds of your last confirmation. If it was not confirmed in 30 seconds then the emergency brake will be applied.
• Before the emergency brake is applied the warning voice will turn on.

Advance SIFA

• You can hold the SIFA button down for max. 30 seconds but if you hold it for more than 30 seconds, the emergency brake will be applied, before this happens the warning voice will turn on.
• When the SIFA button is not held, then the emergency brake will be applied after 5 seconds. If the emergency brake is applied, then you must press the SIFA button again and release the train brake.

3 kV – 15 kV System

• The name of the locomotive (3 kV or 15 kV) tells you the starting system. If you want to start on a route that has the 3 kV system, then select the 3 kV locomotive and 15 kV if you start on a route that has the 15 kV System.

Changing the system:

1. Turn off the main switch
2. Lower the pantograph
3. Change system
4. Raise the pantograph
5. Turn on the main switch

• When you drive to a station where the system is changed, then you will need to lower the pantograph and select the right system (Picture 3 – number 4).
• If the system is not selected correctly on the locomotive, then you cannot turn on the main switch. The locomotive checks the system whenever the pantograph is up.

LZB

The locomotive hat the LZB system and you can’t turn it off!

• If the locomotive comes in the track sections with LZB, then the LZB will automatically turn on and the “Ü” light will turn on (1).
• On the display, you can see now how far it is to the next speed limit (2), also the next speed limit is shown under the speed pointer (4).
• If you drive too fast the indication (3) will turn on. When the brake indication starts flashing, then you have 5 seconds to reduce the speed.
• If you don’t reduce the speed the emergency brake will be applied. If the emergency brake is applied, then you must wait until the train stops!
• When the yellow indicator starts flashing “ENDE”, you have 10 seconds to confirm it with the PZB Acknowledge button. If you don’t confirm it in 10 seconds, then an emergency brake will be applied.
• The “ENDE” indicator tells you that LZB will be off after about 1.7 km. When LZB is turned on the PZB will be automatically turned off.
