• Once the battery is charged, disconnect the battery
connector from the charger connector. Unplug the
charger from the wall outlet. Refer to the Battery
Installation section for instructions on installing
your battery. If your battery is already installed in
your vehicle, simply re-connect the motor harness
connector to the battery.
• Cut the steering wheel labels (#27, #28 and #29)
from the larger label sheet. Now, position the steering
wheel labels, as shown in the illustration, around the
steering wheel.
Hint: These labels will be applied around the spokes on
the steering wheel. Carefully apply the center portion of
each label to the topside of each spoke. Gently smooth
the label around each spoke.
• Remove the backing from label 28 and apply the label
to the left spoke. Remove the backing from label 29 and
apply the label to the bottom spoke. Remove the backing
from label 27 and apply the label to the right spoke.
• You do not need to remove the battery from your
vehicle to recharge it.
• Before charging the battery, examine the battery case
for cracks and other damage which may cause sulfuric
acid (electrolyte) to leak during the charging process.
If damage is detected, do not charge the battery or use
it in your vehicle. Battery acid is very corrosive and
can cause severe damage to surfaces it contacts.
• Do not place the battery on a surface (such as kitchen
counter tops) which could be damaged by the acid
contained inside the battery. Take precautions to
protect the surface on which you place your battery.
• Charge the battery in a well ventilated area.
• To replace the seat, please refer to page 13 in the
Battery Installation section.

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.
• Check all screws and their protective coverings
regularly and tighten as required. Check plastic parts
on a regular basis for cracks or broken pieces.
If acid comes in contact with skin or eyes, flush with
cool water for at least 15 minutes and call a physician.
• During snowy or rainy weather, the vehicle should be
stored inside or under a protective cover.
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.
• 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.
• 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.
• To ensure your vehicle stays in good operating order,
we recommend you periodically have your vehicle
checked by a Power Wheels® authorized service center.
• Do not store the battery in temperatures above 75° F
or below -10° F.

SAFE DRIVING RULES
Before children use this vehicle, an adult should
RIDING HAZARD
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.
WARNING
• Prevent Injuries and Deaths
• Direct Adult Supervision Required.
• A child who is not sitting on the seat could fall off,
cause a tip over or block the driver’s view.
• 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
- The wheels to lose traction, causing the vehicle
to slip.
- The vehicle could roll backwards at an unsafe speed.
• Never Ride At Night.
• Keep Children Within Safe
Riding Areas.
These areas must be:
- 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.
• Riding Rules
• 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.
• 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.
Make sure children know and
follow these rules for safe driving
and riding.
- Always sit on the seat.
- Always wear shoes.
- Only 1 (one) rider at a time.
Use vehicle on generally level ground ONLY!

PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SOLUTION
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 approximately
25 seconds before operating the vehicle again. To avoid
repeated automatic shutdowns, do not overload the
vehicle by exceeding the 50 lb (23 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 wire or loose connectors
Dead battery
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.
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 is 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. Contact your local Power Wheels®
authorized service center for diagnosis and repair.

on vehicle use and use conditions. Replace only with
a Power Wheels® 6 Volt (4.0 amp/hr.) battery with built-in
thermal fuse. Do not substitute parts.
Vehicle is overloaded
Make sure you do not overload the vehicle by allowing
more than one rider at one time, exceeding the 50 lb.
maximum weight capacity, or by towing objects behind
the vehicle. If the vehicle is overloaded, the built-in
thermal fuse in the battery may "trip." Once a fuse has
"tripped," remove your foot from the pedal and wait
approximately 25 seconds before operating the vehicle
again. Adjust the driving conditions to prevent repeated
automatic shutdowns.
