Please read this booklet before first-time use. Keep these

important information.
This product is not intended for children; it is for adult use only.
The charger is not a toy.
Your new battery must be charged for at least 18 hours before
you use it in your vehicle for the first time. Do not charge the
battery longer than 30 hours. Overcharging or under-charging
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. Charge the battery after each use, regardless of
how long the vehicle was used.
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 the surfaces
it contacts.

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 40 lbs (18 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.
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 www.powerwheels.com,
or call 1-800-348-0751.
