The vehicle should be checked for damage, missing or badly worn parts before use.
• Check the tightness of the fasteners before each use.
• Check the tightness of the wheel. Use a flat-head screwdriver to gently pry off the hubcaps. Note: If the wheel is not
tight it will not engage the forward gears and the vehicle will not run.
• Ensure the battery bracket is securely in place before use.
• Occasionally use lightweight oil to lubricate moving parts such as wheels and steering linkage. Do not use oil on plastic
or nylon parts. No lubrication is required.
• Store the vehicle indoors or cover it with a tarp to protect it from the wet weather. Keep it away from sources of heat,
such as stoves and heaters.
• Clean the vehicle with a soft, dry cloth. To restore shine to plastic parts, use a non-wax furniture polish. Do not use
car wax, abrasive cleaners or wash the vehicle with soap and water. Water will damage the motor, electrical system
and battery.
• Kid Trax Toys recommends that you take the vehicle to an authorized service center for periodic maintenance and
service. Call Kid Trax Toys Consumer Relations at 877-741-6154 for an authorized service center.
Only an adult who has read and understands the safety warnings (see Assembly) should handle, charge or recharge of

General
Battery
Important!
• Damage to the battery may occur if it is allowed to drain completely. Do not allow the battery to drain completely.
• Check the battery and charger (supply cord, connector) for wear and damage before charging. Do not charge the
battery if damage has occurred. Only replace with a Kid Trax Toys 6V rechargeable battery and charger.
The battery should be charged after each use, or if not used regularly, once a month at a minimum. Charge the battery
for a full twelve hours. Do not charge the battery for more than twenty-four hours. Failure to charge the battery as
directed would cause permanent damage to the battery and will void the warranty.
Do not leave the battery connected in the vehicle for long period of times while not being used. This may drain the battery
completely and cause permanent damage. Disconnect the battery connectors from the battery when the vehicle is not
going to be used for a long period of time. Follow these guidelines if the battery is removed:
• Store the battery where temperatures are between -10° F (-24° C and 75° F (24° C)
• Store the battery on a wood surface. Do not place the battery on cement floors for extended periods. This will result in
battery discharge.
• Wipe the battery clean with a dry cloth prior to storage.
• Charge the battery once every month for twelve hours.
