It is normal for some chargers to get
warm during use and is not reason for
concern. Some chargers do not get warm
during use.
It is normal for some batteries to make
noise and swell slightly while charging and
is not reason for concern.
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 battery connector is tightly
plugged into the charger connector, 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 vehicle use and use
conditions. Replace only with a Power Wheels
battery with built-in thermal fuse. Do not substitute parts.
Make sure you do not overload the vehicle by allowing more than
one rider at one time, exceeding the 18 kg (40 lb). maximum weight
capacity, or by towing objects behind the vehicle. If the vehicle is
overloaded, the built-in thermal fuse in the battery may "trip", and
automatically shut down operation of the vehicle for approximately 25
seconds. Adjust the driving conditions to prevent repeated automatic
shutdowns.
Use only on generally level ground.
Check all wires around the motors and all connectors to make sure
they are tight.
