Solution
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 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".
Do not charge the battery longer than 30 hours. If you
suspect that your battery is damaged as a result of
overcharging, contact Power Wheels
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 the battery with a
new Power Wheels
performance, do not use substitute parts.

A thermal fuse may "trip" and shut down operation of the
vehicle if the vehicle is overloaded or the driving conditions too
severe. The fuse will automatically reset itself after approxi-
mately 25 seconds, allowing the vehicle to resume normal oper-
ation. To avoid repeated automatic shutdowns, do not overload
the vehicle by exceeding the 59 kg (130 lb) maximum weight
capacity or by towing anything behind the vehicle. Avoid
driving up hills or running 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
Power Wheels
