Hi everyone.

I have just taken delivery of my first(!) Krokodil. When I hit F1, I get the headlights and a single white rear light. If I hit F2, the rear light turns to red - it is named as a "swiss" mode. What is the difference and when/how should I make the change?

When the Krokodil is heading a train, then the single white rear light must be on. However, if the loco is on its way alone (without any carriages behind it), then the red tail light is appropriate.
thanks 3 users liked this useful post by Unholz

Thank you. That explains it.

Any other loco push-pull a train a loco at the back has to have 2 red lights.
