Your Power Wheels® 12 volt battery is equipped  
with a built-in thermal fuse. The thermal fuse is  
a self-resetting safety device which automatically “trips”  
and shuts down operation of the vehicle if the vehicle is  
overloaded or the driving conditions too severe. Once  
a fuse has “tripped”, remove your foot from the pedal  
and wait approximately 25 seconds before operating the  
vehicle again. To avoid repeated automatic shut-downs,  
avoid severe driving conditions.

SAFE DRIVING RULES  
Before children use this vehicle, an adult should carefully  
RIDING HAZARD  
evaluate the driving area as well as the child’s skill level  
and ability to drive the vehicle safely. Teach appropriate  
safety rules to your child before allowing operation of  
this vehicle. These rules should also be reviewed with  
other playmates who want to drive the vehicle.  
•A child who is not sitting on the seat could fall off,  
cause a tip over or block the driver’s view.  
WARNING  
Prevent Injuries and Deaths  
Direct Adult Supervision Required.  
Never Ride at Night.  
Keep Children Within Safe  
Riding Areas.  
Only operate the vehicle in the daytime in a well-lit area.  
Driving near steep inclines can cause:  
-The vehicle to gain unsafe speed, even if the pedal is  
released to stop.  
-The vehicle to tilt and tip over  
These areas must be:  
-The wheels to lose traction, causing the vehicle to slip.  
-The vehicle could roll backwards at an unsafe speed.  
Never put anything near any moving parts. Rotating  
parts, such as motors, gear boxes and wheels, can  
snag fingers, hair, etc., causing serious injury.  
Do not allow operation of the vehicle when it is on its  
side or in an upside-down position.  
- Away from swimming pools and  
other bodies of water to prevent  
drownings.  
- Generally level to prevent tipovers.  
- Away from steps, steep inclines,  
cars, roads and alleys.  
Do not operate the vehicle near flammable vapors  
(gasoline, paint thinner, acetone, liquid wax, etc.).  
The vehicle’s electrical switches, like most electrical  
switches, emit an internal spark when first turned on  
or turned off, which could cause an explosion or fire.  
To prevent unsupervised use of the vehicle, disconnect  
the motor harness from the battery when the vehicle is  
not in use.  
Riding Rules  
Make sure children know and follow  
these rules for safe driving and riding.  
- Always sit on the seat.  
- Always wear shoes.  
- Only 2 (two) riders at a time.  
Use vehicle on generally level ground ONLY!

VEHICLE OPERATION  
Help your child practice steering to learn how far and  
how quickly to turn the steering wheel when driving, and  
automatically knows how to stop.

that automatically stops the vehicle when your child’s  
foot lifts from the pedal.  
Advanced Use – High Speed

high speed lock-out is disconnected, the vehicle can be  
driven forward in low (2½ mph/4 km/h maximum) or  
high speed (5 mph/8 km/h maximum).  
Make sure the shifter is in the low speed  
position.  
Loosen and remove the screw in the shifter box.

BATTERY CARE  
VEHICLE CARE  
If a battery leak develops, avoid contact with the  
leaking acid and place the damaged battery in a plastic  
bag. See next section for proper disposal.  
If acid comes in contact with skin or eyes, flush with  
cool water for at least 15 minutes and call a physician.  
Check all screws and their protective coverings  
regularly and tighten as required. Check plastic parts  
on a regular basis for cracks or broken pieces.  
During snowy or rainy weather, the vehicle should be  
stored inside or under a protective cover.  
Avoid operating the vehicle in wet or snowy conditions,  
and do not spray the vehicle with a hose. Water  
or moisture in the motors or electrical switches  
can cause them to corrode, and could cause switch  
or motor failure.  
Avoid operating the vehicle on sand, loose dirt or gravel.  
Sand, loose dirt or gravel in the motors or electrical  
switches can cause them to jam, and could cause  
switch or motor failure.  
The vehicle can be wiped down with a soft, dry cloth.  
For a shiny finish, you can wipe plastic parts with  
a non-wax furniture polish applied to a soft cloth.  
Do not use automotive wax. Do not use soap and  
water or spray the vehicle with a hose.  
If acid is internally ingested, give water, milk of  
magnesia or egg whites immediately. Never give  
emetics or induce vomiting. Call a physician.  
Do not allow the battery to run down completely  
before charging.  
Charge the battery before storing the vehicle, and at least  
once per month, even if the vehicle has not been used.  
Charge the battery after each use, regardless of how  
long the vehicle was used.  
Leaving the battery in a discharged condition will ruin it.  
Always remove an exhausted battery from the vehicle.  
Battery leakage and corrosion can damage the vehicle.  
Do not store the battery in temperatures above  
75° F or below -10° F.  
To ensure your vehicle stays in good operating order,  
we recommend you periodically have your vehicle  
checked by a Power Wheels® authorized service center.  
DISPOSAL  
Your Power Wheels® battery is a non-spillable, sealed  
lead-acid battery. It must be recycled or disposed  
of in an environmentally sound manner.  
Do not dispose of a lead-acid battery in a fire. The  
battery may explode or leak.  
Do not dispose of a lead-acid battery in your regular,  
household trash. The incineration, landfilling or mixing  
of sealed lead-acid batteries with household trash is  
prohibited by law in most areas.  
Protect the environment by not disposing of this  
product with household waste (2002/96/EC). Check  
your local authority for recycling advice and facilities  
(Europe only).  
Return an exhausted battery to a federal or state  
approved lead-acid battery recycler, such as  
a Power Wheels® authorized service center or a local  
seller of automotive batteries. Contact your local waste  
management officials for other information regarding  
the environmentally sound collection, recycling and  
disposal of lead-acid batteries. If you live in the State  
of Florida or the State of Minnesota, it is prohibited by  
law for anyone to throw away lead-acid batteries in the  
municipal waste stream.

POSSIBLE  
PROBLEM  
SOLUTION  
CAUSE  
Vehicle does not run  
Undercharged battery  
Charge the battery. A new battery should have been charged for at  
least 18 hours before using the vehicle for the first time. After first-  
time use, recharge the battery for at least 14 hours after each use.  
Never charge the battery longer than 30 hours.  
Check all connectors. Make sure the battery connector is tightly  
plugged into the charger connector, and that the charger is  
plugged into the wall.  
Make sure power flow to the wall outlet is “ON”.  
Charger is not working  
Tripped thermal fuse  
There is no sure way to tell if your charger is working unless you  
have a volt meter. If you suspect there is a problem with your  
charger, contact your local Power Wheels® authorized service  
center. They can test your charger for you.  
The built-in thermal fuse may “trip” and shut down operation of  
the vehicle if the vehicle is overloaded or the driving conditions  
too severe. Once a fuse has “tripped”, remove your foot from the  
pedal and wait 25 seconds before operating the vehicle again. To  
avoid repeated automatic shutdowns, do not overload the vehicle  
by exceeding the 130 lbs (59 kg) maximum weight capacity or by  
towing anything behind the vehicle. Do not drive up hills or run  
into fixed objects, which can cause the wheels to stop spinning  
while power is still being supplied to the motors. If a thermal fuse  
continually trips, contact your local Power Wheels® authorized  
service center.  
Loose wires or  
loose connectors  
Check all wires and connectors. Make sure the battery connector  
is tightly plugged into the motor harness connector and that there  
are no loose wires around the motors.  
Dead battery  
If your battery is old or if you have not followed Battery Care  
instructions, your battery may be dead. If you are unsure whether  
or not the battery are dead, you can have it tested at your local  
Power Wheels® authorized service center.  
Electrical switch damage  
Motor damage  
The electrical switches can become corroded due to exposure to  
water or moisture, or can jam due to loose dirt, sand or gravel.

diagnosis and repair.
