BATTERY CHARGING
ELECTRICAL HAZARD
WARNING
CAUTION
• Battery can fall out and injure a child if vehicle
tips over. Always use battery retainer.
Use the charger in dry locations only.
• PREVENT FIRE
- Never modify the electrical system.
Alterations could cause a fire resulting
in serious injury and could also ruin the
electrical system.
- Use of the wrong type battery or charger
could cause a fire or explosion resulting in
serious injury.
- Use of Power Wheels® components in
products other than Power Wheels®
vehicles could cause overheating,
fire or explosion.
• The battery must be handled by adults
only. The battery is heavy and contains
sulfuric acid (electrolyte). Dropping the
battery could result in serious injury.
• Never allow children to charge the battery.
Battery charging must be done by adults
only. A child could be injured by the elec-
tricity involved in charging the battery.
About Thermal Fuses
Your Power Wheels® 6 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, do not overload
the vehicle by exceeding the 65 lbs (29.5 kg.) maximum weight
capacity or by towing anything behind the vehicle. Avoid severe
driving conditions, such as driving up slopes or running into
fixed objects, which can cause the wheels to stop spinning while
power is still being supplied to the motors and make sure your
child stops the vehicle before switching speeds or direction.
If a thermal fuse in a battery continually trips under normal
driving conditions, please contact your local Power Wheels®
Authorized Service Center. For the location of the Authorized
Service Center nearest to you, visit us on-line at
Important Notes
• Your new battery must be charged for at least 18 hours
• Read the safety instructions on the battery.
before you use it in your vehicle for the first time.
• Examine the battery, charger and their
connectors for excessive wear or damage
each time you charge the battery. If damage
or excessive wear is detected, do not use
the charger or the battery until you have
replaced the worn or damaged part.
• We recommend that you start charging your battery before
beginning assembly of your new vehicle.
• The battery must be upright while charging.
• The charger is not a toy.
• Do not short circuit the battery.
• 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 charge 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
charge your battery.
• Use only a Power Wheels® Super 6 Volt charger with (input
120 VAC, 60 Hz with an output of 6 VDC) to charge your
Power Wheels® 6 volt battery.
• Adults Note: Regularly examine the charger for damage to the
cord, plug, housing or other parts that may result in the risk of
fire, electric shock or injury. In the event of any damage, do not
use the charger until the damage has been properly repaired.
Please call 1-800-348-0751.
• If your battery is old and will not accept a charge, do not leave
it in the vehicle. Always remove a dead battery from the vehicle.

SAFE DRIVING RULES
Teach Safety Rules to Children
RIDING HAZARD
While children can quickly develop the skill necessary to drive
this vehicle, it is important to remember that their judgment skills
are still very immature. Unsupervised driving by children can
lead to serious injury. Before children use this vehicle, an adult
should carefully evaluate the driving area as well as the children’s
skill level and ability to drive this vehicle safely. Children are not
always able to recognize or anticipate hazards, even when they
have been taught about them. There is no acceptable substitute
for direct adult supervision.
WARNING
• Prevent Injuries and Deaths
• Direct Adult Supervision Required
• 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
Teach appropriate safety rules to your child before allowing
operation of this vehicle. These rules should also be reviewed
with neighborhood children or other playmates who want to
drive this vehicle.
- generally level to prevent tipovers
- away from steps, steep inclines, cars,
roads and alleys.
Riding Rules
Make sure children know and follow these rules for safe driving:
1. Always sit on the seat.
• Riding Rules
2. Always wear shoes.
Make sure children know and follow
these rules for safe driving and riding.
- Always sit on the seat.
- Always wear shoes.
- Only 1 (one) riders at a time.
3. Only 1 (one) rider at a time. A child who is not sitting on the
seat or who is standing on the vehicle could fall off, cause
a tip-over or block the driver’s view. A child could be
seriously injured.
4. Do not allow any child to drive the vehicle in the street or near
moving (motorized) vehicles.
5. Do not allow any child to drive near bodies of water (such as
pools or creeks), obstructions (such as furniture, low tree limbs
or play equipment), or drop-offs (such as stairs or decks).
6. Do not allow any child to drive the vehicle in the dark. A child
could encounter unexpected obstacles and have an accident.
Operate the vehicle only in the daytime or a well-lit area.
7. Do not allow your child to drive on sloped or inclined surfaces.
Restrict your child’s driving to generally level ground ONLY!
8. Do not allow your child to drive down or across a steep slope.
- The vehicle may gain unsafe speed, even if the pedal is
released to stop.
- The vehicle may tilt and tip over.
- The wheels could lose traction, causing the vehicle to slip.
9. Do not allow your child to drive up steep inclines. The motor may
stop and the vehicle could roll backwards at an unsafe speed.
10.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.
11.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. The presence of flammable
liquids or vapors could cause an explosion or a fire. Keep all
flammable products in tightly sealed containers and away from
the vehicle.
Use vehicle on generally level ground ONLY!
12.Do not allow a child to operate the vehicle without direct
adult supervision. To prevent unsupervised use of the vehicle,

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 charger connector is
tightly plugged into the battery, 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
65 lb 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
Dead battery
Check all wires and connectors. Make sure the motor
harness connector is plugged into the battery 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
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.
Motor damage
Contact your local Power Wheels® authorized service center
for diagnosis and repair.

PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS GUIDE
PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SOLUTION
When the foot pedal is pressed
only one rear wheel spins
Operation of vehicle in low speed
It is possible that only one rear wheel may spin when both
rear wheels are raised off the ground and the vehicle is in
low speed. This does necessarily indicate a problem. Check
for proper operation of the drive system by raising the rear
wheels off the ground and pressing the foot pedal. If only one
rear wheel spins, carefully press your hand on the spinning
wheel to slow it down. The other rear wheel should begin to
spin. If the other rear wheel does not begin to spin, there
may be a problem with the vehicle. Contact your local
Power Wheels® authorized service center for diagnosis
and repair.
