Draw a Parking Line
Draw a thicker line perpendicular to the straight Line like a "T" shape. The Dalek will stop in front of the
parking line.
Run on a Circle
Draw a Ø18cm circle, line width 0.8 ~ 1 cm. The Dalek will run continuously along the circle.

Create your own fantastic Track
Now, you are ready to create different paths for the Dalek to run! However, make sure the line is 0.8 ~ 1 cm
and the curve must not have too sharp a turn; it's better to have no less than a 9cm radius.
ATTENTION:
The wheels may not turn because the sensors do not receive a signal. However, the unit still con-
sumes battery power. Switch off the Dalek after use.
DO NOT STARE IN TO THE INFRARED LED AT SHORT RANGE
Troubleshooting
Q) The Dalek didn't follow the track properly and it's not working
A1)
The accuracy of the infrared source can be affected in a bright environment I.e. in sunlight or a brightly
lit room. It is recommended to use this product out of sunlight and spot lights.
A2) Make sure the battery is installed with correct polarity. Replace the battery if necessary.
A3)
The radius of the line may be too small or the turning path has a sharp angle. A larger and smoother
radius is recommended for the Dalek to follow. Try to modify your route with correction fluid if necessary.
A4) Make sure the ground is white and the line is solid black color, the line width needs to be between 0.8 ~
1 cm.
