ELECTRICAL HAZARD
CAUTION
WARNING
Use the charger in dry locations only.
• Battery can fall out and injure a child if vehicle
tips over. Always use battery retainer.
• PREVENT FIRE
About Thermal Fuses
Your Power Wheels® 12 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 130 lbs (59 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 direction.
- 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, visit us on-line at
• 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
• 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.
• 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.
• 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 a kitchen
counter top) 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® 12 volt charger with "12 V" connector
(120 VAC, 60 Hz, 28W with an output of 12 VDC, 1200 mA) to
charge your Power Wheels® 12 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.

BATTERY CARE AND DISPOSAL
Care
Disposal
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.
• Your Power Wheels® battery is a non-spillable, sealed lead-acid
battery. It must be recycled or disposed of in an environmentally
sound manner.
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.
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.
• 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.
• 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).
• 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.
• 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
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.
• 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 a kitchen
counter top) 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® 12 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
compart-ment. Always use the battery retainer 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.

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.
3. Only 2 (two) riders 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.
- Always wear shoes.
- Only 2 (two) riders at a time.
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.
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.

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 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 130 lb. (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 wire 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.
