Reset to Factory Defaults:
To override the settings you currently have assigned to the engine and reset it to its factory
defaults, while in Neutral tap the Horn/Whistle button quickly once, followed by five quick
taps of the Bell button, allowing approximately ½ second to lapse between each quick
button press. Two horn/whistle blasts will indicate that the engine has made the change.

Automatic Sounds:
Certain Proto-Sound 2.0 sound effects automatically play in programmed conventional
mode conditions:
Squealing Brakes play any time the engine's speed decreases rapidly.
Cab Chatter plays at random intervals when the engine idles in neutral.
Engine Start-up and Shut-down sounds play when the engine is initially powered on
or is powered off for five seconds or more.
Operation With DC Track Power
The bell, the whistle, the Proto Coupler, PSA / FYS and other Proto-Sound 2.0
features are not accessible when using DC track power in the conventional mode.
The chuffing sound will operate according to the speed of the locomotive.
The direction of the locomotive is controlled by the track voltage polarity.
Raising the track voltage to 8 - 9v will power up the electronics in the engine. After
the engine has gone through the START UP sequence, slowly increase the throttle
setting to you desired speed. If the power is raised too quickly or if a voltage
greater than 10v DC is applied to the engine at power up the engine will not move.
This is to prevent a runaway engine in the event of an instantaneous power
interruption.
If the engine is not going in the desired direction, is in conflict with the direction
of other engine on your track, you can reverse the direction of the MTH GG-1 by
changing the position of the DCS Polarity switch, located under the removable
roof hatch.
Once you have the engine's direction orientated to your operation, regular direction
changes can initiated by changing the position of the direction button on the DC
power pack.
When the switch position of the direction switch on the power pack is changed,
the engine will slowly coast to a stop, and then accelerate in the opposite direction
to the speed dictated by the track power.
If you desire, the track voltage can be reduced by using the throttle setting until the
engine stops, then change the position of the direction switch on the DC power
pack, then slowly increase the throttle setting to your desired speed.
