IMPORTANT!

• Your new battery must be charged for at least 18 hours before you use it in your scooter for the first time. We recommend that you start charging your

battery before beginning assembly of your new scooter.

• The battery must be upright while charging.

• The charger is not a toy.

• 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 scooter. Battery acid is very corrosive and can cause severe damage to surfaces it contacts.

• Do not charge the battery on a surface (such as kitchen countertops) 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 type “12V” connector (120 VAC 60 Hz 28W with an output of 12 VDC 1200mA) to charge your Power Wheels

CAUTION

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 scooter if the scooter 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 scooter to resume normal operation. To avoid repeated automatic shutdowns, do not overload the scooter by exceeding the 150 lb. maximum weight capacity or by towing anything behind the scooter. Avoid severe driving conditions, such as driving up steep 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, please visit us on-line at www.powerwheels.com or call 1-800-348-0751.
