ticularly easy:
• Remove the locomotive body.
• Remove the dummy plug from the socket and keep it in a suitable
place for later use
• Insert the plug of the decoder in such a way that pin 1 of the plug
(this is the side with the red / orange wires) sits next to the corner
of the socket that is usually marked with *, +, • or 1. Please make
sure that the pins are straight when inserting the plug.
