Each Power Wheels

12 volt battery has a built-in thermal fuse.
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
operation. To avoid repeated automatic shutdowns, do not
over load the vehicle by exceeding the 54.4 kg (120 lb)
maximum weight capacity or by towing anything behind the
vehicle. Do not drive up hills or run 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 Consumer Relations.
