(C) PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: ASSEMBLY
YOUR NEW VEHICLE REQUIRES ADULT ASSEMBLY.
Read entire instructions carefully before assembling this product. Children can be harmed
by small parts, sharp edges and sharp points in the vehicle's unassembled state, or by
electrical items. Care should be taken in the unpacking and assembly of the vehicle.
Children should not handle parts, including the battery, or help in assembly of the vehicle.
WARNING: RIDING HAZARD
Not to be used in traffic.
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 drowning.
- Generally level to prevent tipovers.
- To reduce the risk of injury, adult supervision is required. Never use in roadways, near
motor vehicles, on or near steep inclines or steps, swimming pools or other bodies of
water. Do not use on gravel surfaces. Only use on smooth surfaces.
- Always wear protective clothing and shoes. Never allow more than 1 rider at a time..
Riding Rules:
Make sure children know and follow these rules for safe driving and riding.
- Always sit on the seat.
It is recommended that the rider always wears safety equipment such as fitted
helmet when riding the vehicle.
Use this vehicle ONLY outdoors. Most interior flooring can be damaged by
riding this vehicle indoor
WARNING: SAFE DRIVING
Before children use this vehicle, an adult should 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.
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 put anything near any moving parts, rotating parts, such as motors, gear
boxes and wheels, as these can snag fingers, hair, etc., and cause 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.

WARNING: ELECTRICAL HAZARD
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.
Battery can fall out and injure a child if vehicle tips over. Always use battery
retainer.
Never modify the eletrical system. Alterations could cause a fire resulting in
serious injury and also ruin the electrical system.
Use of the wrong type of battery or charger may cause a fire or explosion
resulting in serious injury.
Never allow children to charge the battery. Battery charging must be done by
adults only.
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.
Read the safety instructions on the battery.
(G) FUSE
The vehicle uses a self-tapping fuse.
When overloading or improper use, the fuse will automatically be “triggered” and
shut down operation of the vehicle, wait approximately 10~20 seconds before
trying to operate the vehicle again.
To avoid the shut down, please pay attention to:
(1) The maximum weight limit of the vehicle is 40KG.
(2) Do not tow anything behind the vehicle.
(3) Do not immerse in liquid,it may cause the short circuit.
(4) Do not revise the vehicle’s circuit or the structure.
(5) Do not use a different specification fuse.
(H) CHARGING AND BATTERY SAFETY
As shown in below diagram, put the charger into the vehicle's charging
hole, and the power plug into the matched stable AC power (120V).
WARNING:
DO NOT allow children to
play with the battery and
charger. IT IS NOT A TOY.

CAUTION: BATTERY CHARGING
Use the charger in dry locations only.
Make sure you charge the battery for 12 hours using the enclosed 15 volt
charger before operating your vehicle for the first time. Charge the battery
about 8 hours after each use of the vehicle. Never charge the battery
longer than 16 hours. Failure to follow these instructions may damage your
battery.
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, including skin. Always use caution when charging.
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.
BATTERY SAFETY INFORMATION
In exceptional circumstances, batteries may leak fluids that can cause a
chemical burn or injury, or ruin your product. To avoid battery leakage:
Do not mix old and new batteries or batteries of different types.
Insert batteries as indicated inside the battery compartment.
Remove batteries during long periods of non-use. Always remove exhausted
batteries from the product. Dispose of batteries safely. Do not dispose of this
product in a fire. The batteries inside may explode or leak.
Never short-circuit the battery terminals.
Use only batteries of the same or equivalent type as recommended.
Do not charge non-rechargeable batteries.
If removable, rechargeable batteries are used, they are only to be charged
under adult supervision.
BATTERY CARE
If a battery leak happens, avoid contact with the leaking acid and place the
damaged battery in a plastic bag.
If acid comes in contact with skin or eyes, flush with cool water for at least 15
minutes and call a physician.
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.
Always remove an exhausted battery from the vehicle. Battery leakage and
corrosion can damage the vehicle.

Audits should 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.
When vehicle is not used on a regular basis, the vehicle should be stored inside
or under a protective cover. With the switch in the "off" position, pull out the battery
to ensure circuit safety. Remember to charge the battery at least once per month
while your vehicle is not in regular use.
Avoid operating the vehicle in wet, rainy or snowy conditions.
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.
