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 connectors. Make sure the battery connector
is tightly plugged into the charger connector, and that the
charger is plugged into the wall.
Make sure power flow to the wall outlet is "ON".
Be sure to charge the battery after each use.
Even with proper care, a rechargeable battery does not last
forever. Average battery life is 1 to 3 years depending on
the vehicle use and use conditions. Replace the battery
with a Power Wheels
Make sure you do not overload the vehicle by allowing more
than one rider at one time, by exceeding the 29.5 kg (65 lb)
maximum weight capacity, or by towing objects behind the
vehicle. If the vehicle is overloaded, the built-in thermal fuse in
the battery may "trip" and automatically shut down operation of
the vehicle for approximately 25 seconds. Reduce the load on
the vehicle to prevent repeated automatic shutdowns.
Use only on generally level ground.
Check all wires around the motor and all connectors to
make sure they are tight.
