•  Your Power Wheels

®

 battery is a non-spillable, sealed lead-acid 

battery. It must be recycled or disposed of in an environmentally 
sound manner.

•  Do not dispose of a lead-acid battery in a fire. The battery may 

explode or leak.

•  Do not dispose of a lead-acid battery in your regular, household 

trash. The incineration, landfilling or mixing of sealed lead-acid 
batteries with household trash is prohibited by law in most areas.

•  Protect the environment by not disposing of this product with 

household waste (2002/96/EC). Check your local authority for 
recycling advice and facilities (Europe only).

•  Return an exhausted battery to a federal or state approved lead-

acid battery recycler, such as a Power Wheels

®

local waste management officials for other information regarding 
the environmentally sound collection, recycling and disposal of 
lead-acid batteries. If you live in the State of Florida or the State 
of Minnesota, it is prohibited by law for anyone to throw away 
lead-acid batteries in the municipal waste stream.

Care

If a battery leak develops,

 avoid contact with the leaking acid and 

place the damaged battery in a plastic bag. See information below 
for proper disposal.

If acid comes in contact with skin or eyes,

 flush with cool water 

for at least 15 minutes and call a physician.

If acid is internally ingested,

 give water, milk of magnesia or egg 

whites immediately. Never give emetics or induce vomiting. Call 
a physician.
•  Charge a new battery for at least 18 hours before first use. 

Never charge the battery longer than 30 hours. Overcharging or 
undercharging the battery may shorten battery life and decrease 
vehicle running time.

•  After the first charge, recharge the battery for at least 14 hours 

after each use. Never charge the battery longer than 30 hours. 
Charge the battery after each use, regardless of how long the 
vehicle was used.

•  The battery must be upright while charging.
•  Do not allow the battery to run down completely before charging.
•  Charge the battery before storing the vehicle. 
•  Charge the battery at least once per month, even if the vehicle has 

not been used.

•  Leaving the battery in a discharged condition will ruin it.
•  Always remove an exhausted battery from the vehicle. Battery 

leakage and corrosion can damage the vehicle.

•  Do not store the battery on a surface (such as a kitchen counter 

top) which could be damaged by the acid contained inside the 
battery. Take precautions to protect the surface on which you 
store the battery.

•  Do not store the battery in temperatures above 75° F or 

below -10° F.

•  Use only a Power Wheels

®

 12 volt battery. Remember to charge 

the new battery for at least 18 hours before first use.

•  Prevent the battery from moving freely inside the battery compart-

ment. 

Always use the battery retainer to secure the battery in 

the battery compartment.

 

•  Examine the battery, charger and their connectors for excessive 

wear or damage each time you charge the battery. If damage is 
detected, do not use the charger or the battery until you have 
replaced the worn or damaged part.
