POSSIBLE CAUSE

SOLUTION

Short run time (Less than

Undercharged battery

Charge the battery. A new battery should have been charged for

1 - 3 hours per charge)

 

at least 18 hours before using the vehicle for the fi rst time. After

 

 

fi rst-time use, recharge the battery for at least 14 hours after each

 

 

use. Never charge the battery longer than 30 hours.

 

 

Check all wires and 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”.

 

Overcharged battery

Do not charge the battery longer than 30 hours. If you suspect

full charge

Average battery life is 1 to 3 years depending on vehicle use and

 

 

use conditions. Replace the battery with a new Power Wheels®

 

 

12 volt rechargeable battery. Do not substitute parts.

 

Tripped thermal fuse

The built-in thermal fuse may “trip” and shut 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 shutdowns, do not overload the

 

 

vehicle by exceeding the 130 lbs (59 kg) maximum weight capacity

 

 

or by towing anything behind the vehicle. Do not drive up hills or

 

 

run into fi xed objects, which can cause the wheels to stop spinning

 

 

while power is still being supplied to the motors.

 

 

If a thermal fuse continually trips, contact your local

 

 

Power Wheels® authorized service center.
