Please see the Battery Charging section for detailed instructions.

In the event of any damage, do not use the charger until the damage has been properly repaired. 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, avoid severe driving conditions.

If a thermal fuse in a battery continually trips under • normal driving conditions, please contact your local Power Wheels® Authorized Service Center. To prevent damaging the motors and gears, teach your • child to stop the vehicle before switching direction.

PREVENT FIRE•

- Never modify the electrical system. Alterations could cause a  re resulting in serious injury and could also ruin the electrical system.

- Use of the wrong type battery or charger could cause a  re or explosion resulting in serious injury.

- Use of Power Wheels® components in products other than Power Wheels® vehicles could cause overheating,  re 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. 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.

• Make sure you charge the battery for at least 18 hours using the enclosed Power Wheels® 12 volt charger before operating your vehicle for the first time. Charge

the battery for at least 14 hours after each use of the vehicle. Never charge the battery longer than 30 hours. Failure to follow these instructions may damage your battery and will void your warranty.

• Use only a Power Wheels connector (input 120 VAC, 60Hz, with an output of 12 VDC) to charge your Power Wheels® 12 volt battery.

• Plug the charger connector into the battery socket.

• Plug the charger into a standard wall outlet.

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.

- Battery must be upright while charging.

• 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.

• You do not need to remove the battery from your vehicle to recharge it.

• Do not place the battery on a surface (such as kitchen counter tops) which could be damaged by the acid contained inside the battery. Take precautions to protect the surface on which you place your battery.

• Charge the battery in a well ventilated area.

• Once the battery is charged, remove the charger connector from the battery. Unplug the charger from the wall outlet. Refer to the Battery Installation section for instructions on installing your battery. If your battery is already installed in your vehicle, simply re-connect the motor harness connector to the battery.
