About Thermal Fuses
ELECTRICAL HAZARD
Your Power Wheels 6 volt battery with A-style connector
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”, it will automatically reset itself after
approximately 25 seconds and allow the vehicle to resume
normal operations. 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.
WARNING
• Battery can fall out and injure a child if
vehicle tips over. Always use battery clamp.
• 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.
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,
1-800-348-0751.
• 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.
Important Notes
• Your new battery must be charged for at least
18 hours before you use it in your vehicle for
the first time.
• 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.
• Never allow children to charge the battery.
Battery charging must be done by adults
only. A child could be injured by the
electricity involved in charging the battery.
• Never lift or carry the battery by the wires
or connector. This can damage the battery
and possibly cause a fire resulting in
serious injury. Lift and carry the battery by
the case only.
• Read the safety instructions on
the battery.
• 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.
• 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
an A-style connector (120 VAC, 60 Hz, 15W with an
output of 6 VDC, 7.2W) to charge your Power Wheels®
6 volt battery.
CAUTION
• 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.
Use the charger in dry locations only.

Battery Care
and Disposal
Battery Care and Disposal
I
Care
Disposal
• Your Power Wheels® battery is sealed lead-acid battery.
They must be recycled or disposed of in an environ-
mentally sound manner.
If a battery leak develops, avoid contact with the leaking
acid and place the damaged battery in a plastic bag. See
information below 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.
• 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.
If acid is internally ingested, give water, milk of
magnesia or egg whites immediately. Never give emetics
or induce vomiting. Call a physician.
• Charge a new battery for at least 18 hours before first
use. Never charge the battery longer than 30 hours.
Overcharging or undercharging the battery may shorten
battery life and decrease vehicle running time.
• After the first charge, recharge the battery for at least
14 hours after each use. Never charge the battery
longer than 30 hours. Charge the battery after each
use, regardless of how long the vehicle was used.
• 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. For the authorized service center
location nearest to you, please call 1-800-348-0751.
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.
• The battery must be upright while charging.
• Do not allow the battery to run down completely
before charging.
• Charge the battery before storing the vehicle.
• Charge the battery at least once per month, even if
the vehicle has not been 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 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 store the battery.
• Do not store the battery in temperatures above 75° F or
below -10° F.
• Use only a Power Wheels® 6 volt battery. Remember
to charge the new battery for at least 18 hours before
first use.
• Prevent the battery from moving freely inside the
battery compartment. Always use the battery clamp to
secure the battery in the battery compartment.
• Examine the battery, charger and their connectors for
excessive wear or damage each time you charge the
battery. If damage is detected, do not use the charger
or the battery until you have replaced the worn or
damaged part.
Caring
For Your Vehicle
J
• Check all screws, cap nuts 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. Remember to
charge the battery at least once per month while your
vehicle is not in regular use.
• Avoid operating the vehicle in wet or snowy conditions,
and do not spray the vehicle with a hose. Do not wash
the vehicle with soap and water. 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.
• To ensure that your vehicle stays in good operating order,
we recommend that you periodically have your vehicle
®
checked by a Power Wheels authorized service center.
For the location of the authorized service center nearest
call 1-800-348-0751.

and alleys.
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.
Teach Safety Rules to Children
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.
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.
12. Do not allow a child to operate the vehicle without
direct adult supervision. To prevent unsupervised use of
the vehicle, disconnect the motor harness from the
battery when the vehicle is not in use.
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.
Riding Rules
Make sure children know and follow these rules for
safe driving:
1. Always sit on the seat.
2. Always wear shoes.
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.

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. The fuse will automatically reset itself
after approximately 25 seconds, allowing the vehicle to
resume normal operation. 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 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 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. Contact your local Power Wheels® authorized
service center for diagnosis and repair.
