Battery Installation

Important Note: Use only a Power Wheels

12 volt battery.

Use of any other battery will damage your vehicle. Make
sure that you charge the battery for at least 18 hours using
the enclosed Power Wheels

12 volt charger before

operating your vehicle for the first time. Charge the battery
for at least 14 hours after each use of the vehicle. Never
charge the battery longer than 30 hours. Failure to follow
these instructions may damage your battery and will void
your warranty. It is easier to install the battery before
assembling the hood to your vehicle. If you have already
assembled the hood to your vehicle, you may want to
remove it to install the battery.

• Lift the hood to access the battery compartment.
