Teach Safety Rules to Children
While children can quickly develop the skill
necessary to drive this vehicle, it is important to
remember that their judgment skills are still very
immature. Unsupervised driving by children can
lead to serious injury. Before children use this
vehicle, an adult should carefully evaluate the
driving area as well as the children’s skill level
and ability to drive this vehicle safely. Children
are not always able to recognize or anticipate
hazards, even when they have been taught about
them. There is no acceptable substitute for
direct adult supervision.
Teach appropriate safety rules to your child before
allowing operation of this vehicle. These rules
should also be reviewed with neighborhood
children or other playmates who want to drive
this vehicle.
Riding Rules
Make sure children know and follow these
rules for safe driving:
1.
Always sit on the seat.
2.
Always wear shoes.
3.
Only 1 (one) rider at a time. A child who is
not sitting on the seat or who is standing
on the vehicle could fall off, cause a tip-over
or block the driver’s view. A child could be
seriously injured.
4.
Do not allow any child to drive the vehicle in
the street or near moving (motorized) vehicles.
5.
Do not allow any child to drive near bodies of
water (such as pools or creeks), obstructions
(such as furniture, low tree limbs or play
equipment), or drop-offs (such as stairs
or decks).
6.
Do not allow any child to drive the vehicle in
the dark. A child could encounter unexpected
obstacles and have an accident. Operate the
vehicle only in the daytime or a well-lit area.
7.
Restrict your child's driving to areas that are
generally level with gentle inclines or slopes.
8.
Do not allow your child to drive down or
across a steep slope.
- The vehicle may gain unsafe speed, even if
the pedal is released to stop.
- The vehicle may tilt and tip over.
- The wheels could lose traction, causing the
vehicle to slip.
9.
Do not allow your child to drive up steep
inclines. The motor may stop and the vehicle
could roll backwards at an unsafe speed.
10.
Never put anything near any moving
parts. Rotating parts such as motors, gear
boxes and wheels can snag fi ngers, hair,
etc., causing serious injury. Do not allow
operation of the vehicle when it is on its
side or in an upside-down position.
11.
Do not operate the vehicle near fl ammable
vapors (gasoline, paint thinner, acetone,
liquid wax, etc.). The vehicle’s electrical
switches, like most electrical switches, emit
an internal spark when fi rst turned on or
turned off. The presence of fl ammable liquids
or vapors could cause an explosion or a fi re.
Keep all fl ammable products in tightly sealed
containers and away from the vehicle.
12.
Do not allow a child to operate the vehicle
without direct adult supervision. To prevent
unsupervised use of the vehicle, disconnect
the motor harness from the battery when the
vehicle is not in use.
To disconnect the motor harness:
- Press the rear tab on the seat and lift
to remove.
- Lift the battery retainer to access the
battery compartment.
- Pull the motor harness connector from
the battery.
- Lift the battery retainer and slowly lower
the battery into the compartment.
- Replace the seat on the vehicle.
