About Thermal Fuses
Your Power Wheels 6 volt (4.0 Amp/Hr.) 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”, release the button on the handlebar 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.
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® 6 volt (4.0 Amp/Hr.) charger (input 120
VAC 60 Hz with an output of 6 VDC 2.4W 400 mA to charge your
Power Wheels
• 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.
