E Battery Charging About Thermal Fuses WARNING 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”, it will automatically reset itself after approximately 25 seconds and allow the vehicle to resume normal operations.
Battery Charging Important Notes • Your new battery must be charged for at least 18 hours before you use it in your vehicle for the first time. • You do not need to remove the battery from your vehicle to recharge it. • The battery must be upright while charging. • The charger is not a toy. • Do not short circuit the battery. • We recommend that you start charging your battery before beginning assembly of your new vehicle.

Be sure that children operating this vehicle can do so safely and that they are supervised at all times.
K How to Operate Your Vehicle To Back Up Beginner Use - Low Speed Drive As assembled, your vehicle is ready to roll in low speed (21/2 mph, maximum). It has been pre-set so it will only operate in low speed. After your child has mastered the basic skills of driving and understands the rules for safe driving, it’s time to remove the high speed lock-out screw to allow the vehicle to operate in low or high speed. See the instructions on page 22 to remove the high speed lock-out screw.
L How to Operate Your Vehicle Advanced Use - High Speed Drive • Check all screws, retainers and protective coverings regularly and tighten as required. Check plastic parts on a regular basis for cracks or broken pieces. • During snowy or rainy weather, the vehicle should be stored inside or under a protective cover. Remember to charge the battery at least once per month while your vehicle is not in regular use.
