Important Information
A
• Your new vehicle requires adult assembly. Please set
aside at least 60 minutes for assembly.
• You must charge your batteries for 18 - 30 hours before
you use your vehicle for the first time. We recommend
that you start charging your batteries before beginning
assembly. Please see Battery Charging beginning on
page 8 for detailed instructions.
• Read this manual carefully for important safety information and operating instructions before using your vehicle.
Keep this manual for future reference as it contains
important information.
• This vehicle is designed for use on: grass, asphalt and
other hard surfaces; on generally level terrain; and by
children 3 years of age and older.
• Make sure children know and follow these rules for safe
driving and riding:
- always sit on the seat.
- always wear shoes.
- only 1 (one) rider at a time.
• Please note that the front wheel of the vehicle can lift
slightly off the ground during use, especially if the vehicle
is driven forward in high speed from a stopped position.
This is a normal occurrence and is not cause for alarm.
The vehicle will not tip. The rear wheel is designed to act
as a stabilizer by restricting front wheel lift, preventing
the vehicle from tipping. To prevent front wheel lift, teach
your child to start the vehicle in low speed and shift to
high speed only when already moving forward.
• For safety reasons, your vehicle has been pre-set so
that it will operate at low speed. You must connect
the high speed hook-up to allow operation of the
vehicle at high speed. Please see page 25 for
detailed instructions.

child to stop the vehicle before switching direction. Do
not tow anything behind the vehicle or overload it. Do not

ELECTRICAL HAZARD
WARNING
• Batteries 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.
• 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.
• 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.
CAUTION
Use the charger in dry locations only.
Important Notes
• Your new batteries must be charged for at least
18 hours before you use them in your vehicle for
the first time.
• We recommend that you start charging your batteries
before beginning assembly of your new vehicle.
• The batteries must be upright while charging.
• The charger is not a toy.
• Do not short circuit the batteries.
• You do not need to remove the batteries from your
vehicle to recharge them.
• Before charging the batteries, examine the battery cases
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 batteries or use
them in your vehicle. Battery acid is very corrosive and
can cause severe damage to surfaces it contacts.
®
• Do not charge the battery on a surface which could be
damaged by the acid contained inside the battery. Take
precautions to protect the surface on which you charge
your batteries.
• Use only a Power Wheels®12 volt charger with
A-style connector (120 VAC 60 Hz 28W with an output
of 12 VDC 1200mA) to charge your Power Wheels
6 volt batteries.
• When replacing the 6 volt batteries, use only Power
Wheels®6 volt batteries with A-style connectors and
built-in thermal fuses. Power Wheels®6 volt batteries
with external thermal fuses will not fit in the battery
compartment of this vehicle.
• If your battery is old and will not accept a full charge, do
not leave it in the vehicle. Always remove a dead battery
from the vehicle.
®
About Thermal Fuses
Your Power Wheels 6 volt batteries are equipped with
built-in thermal fuses. The thermal fuses are self-resetting
safety devices which automatically “trip” and shut 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 shutdowns,
do not overload the vehicle by exceeding the 65 lbs.
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.
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, see page 29,
or visit www.powerwheels.com.
