Charge the battery. A new battery should have been charged for at least
18 hours before using the vehicle for the first time. After first-time use,
recharge the battery for at least 14 hours after each use. Never charge
the battery longer than 30 hours.
Check all connectors. Make sure the charger connector is plugged into the
battery, and that the charger is plugged into the wall.
Make sure power flow to the wall outlet is "ON".
Be sure to charge the battery after each use.
Even with proper care, a rechargeable battery does not last forever.
Average battery life is 1 to 3 years depending on the vehicle use and use
conditions. Replace the battery with a new Power Wheels
Do not substitute parts.
Make sure you do not overload the vehicle by allowing more than one rider
at one time, by exceeding the 59 kg (130 lbs) maximum weight capacity,
or by towing objects behind the vehicle.
Restrict your child's driving to areas that are generally level with gentle
inclines or slopes.
The vehicle was pre-set to run only in low speed. To allow the vehicle to
run in low and high speed, you must disconnect the High Speed Lock-Out.
Follow the instructions on page 22 to remove the High Speed
Lock-Out screw.
It is possible that only one rear wheel may spin when both rear wheels
are raised off the ground and the vehicle is in low speed. This does not
necessarily indicate a problem. Check for proper operation of the drive
system by raising the rear wheels off the ground and pressing the foot
pedal. If only one rear wheel spins, carefully press your hand on the
spinning wheel to slow it down. The other rear wheel should begin to spin.
If the other rear wheel does not begin to spin, there may be a problem with
the vehicle. Contact Consumer Relations.
Check all wires around the motors and all connectors to make sure they
are tight.
