About Thermal Fuses
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”, 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 lb. maximum weight capacity or by towing
anything behind the vehicle.Avoid severe driving conditions,
such as driving up very steep slopes or running into fixed
objects, which can cause the wheels to stop spinning while
power is still being supplied to the motors.Make sure your
child stops the vehicle before switching direction.
If a thermal fuse in the battery continually trips under normal driving conditions, please contact your local Power
Wheels®Authorized Service Center.Please see page 23 for
the location of the authorized service center nearest to you.
