• Your new vehicle requires adult assembly. Please set aside at
least 90 minutes for assembly.
• You must charge your battery for 18 - 30 hours before you use
your vehicle for the first time. We recommend that you start
charging your battery before beginning assembly. Please see
Battery Charging beginning on page 9 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: concrete, grass, asphalt and
other hard surfaces; on generally level terrain; and by children
3 years of age and older.
• 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.
• This vehicle has been pre-set so it will only operate in low speed.
Note that the power boost button on the handlebar will not
operate in the pre-set low speed mode. You must connect the
high speed hook-up to allow operation of the vehicle at high
speed when pressing the power boost button on the handlebar.
See the instructions on page 26 for detailed instructions.

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
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 65 lbs (30 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 and make sure
your child stops the vehicle before switching 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, visit us on-line at www.powerwheels.com, or
call 1-800-348-0751.
Important Notes
• Your new battery must be charged for at least 18 hours before
you use it in your vehicle for the first time.
• We recommend that you start charging your battery before
beginning assembly of your new vehicle.
• The battery must be upright while charging.
• The charger is not a toy.
• Do not short circuit the battery.
• You do not need to remove the battery from your vehicle to
recharge it.
• 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.
• Do not charge the battery on a surface (such as a kitchen
counter top) 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 "12V" connector
(120 VAC, 60 Hz, 28W with an output of 12 VDC, 1200 mA) to
charge your Power Wheels® 12 volt battery.
Adults Note: Regularly examine the charger for damage to the
cord, plug, housing or other parts that may result in the risk of
fire, electric shock or injury. In the event of any damage, do not
use the charger until the damage has been properly repaired.
Please call 1-800-348-0751.
• If your battery is old and will not accept a charge, do not leave
it in the vehicle. Always remove a dead battery from the vehicle.

Notes:
- If power flow to the wall outlet is controlled by a switch, make
sure the switch is “ON”.
- Use the charger only in a wall outlet. Do not plug the charger
into a ceiling outlet.
• The power indicator on the charger does not indicate the
charge status of your battery. The power indicator allows you
to see that there is power from the wall outlet to the charger.
• Before first-time use, charge the battery for at least 18 hours.
Never charge the battery longer than 30 hours.
• Recharge the battery for at least 14 hours after each use of
your vehicle. Do not charge the battery longer than 30 hours.
• Once the battery is charged, disconnect the battery connector
from the charger connector. Unplug the charger from the wall
outlet. The battery is now ready to be installed in your vehicle.
Please see the Battery Installation section on page 23 for
detailed instructions on installing your battery. If your battery
is already installed in your vehicle, simply re-connect the motor
harness connector to the battery.
