• 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.

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.  
• 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.

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.  
If acid is internally ingested, give water, milk of  
magnesia or egg whites immediately. Never give emetics  
or induce vomiting. 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.  
• 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.  
• 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 fi nish, 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 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.  
BATTERY 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. For the authorized service  
center location nearest to you, please visit us on-line  
at www.powerwheels.com or 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.

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",  
release the button on the handlebar and wait 25 seconds  
before operating the vehicle again. To avoid repeated  
automatic shutdowns, do not overload the vehicle by  
exceeding the 40 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 battery  
connector is tightly plugged into the motor 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.
