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

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.

-The vehicle to gain unsafe speed, even if the pedal is

released to stop.

-The vehicle to tilt and tip over

- Away from swimming pools and

other bodies of water to prevent

drownings.

- Generally level to prevent tipovers.

- Away from steps, steep inclines,

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.

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.

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.

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.
