About Thermal Fuses
Your Power Wheels 6 volt battery with A-style connector
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
(29.5 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 speeds or 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 kitchen counter
tops) 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
®
connector (input 120 VAC, 60 Hz with an output of 6 VDC,
7.2W) 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.
