		and that there are no loose wires around the motors.
	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", release
		the button on the handlebar and wait approximately 25
		seconds before operating the vehicle again. To avoid
		repeated automatic shutdowns, do not overload the vehicle
		by exceeding the 40 lb maximum weight capacity or by
		towing anything behind the vehicle. Do not drive up hills or
		run into fixed 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

Even with proper care, a rechargeable battery does not last forever. Average battery life is 1 to 3 years depending on vehicle use and use conditions. Replace only with a Power Wheels® 6 Volt (4.0 Amp/Hr.) battery with built-in thermal fuse. Do not substitute parts.
