Peg-Perego DESMOSEDICI IGED1048, Use And Care Manual

For the safety of the child, before starting up the
vehicle read and carefully follow the following
instructions.
• Teach the child how to use the vehicle properly for

safe and enjoyable driving.

• The toy must be used with caution, as it requires

substantial dexterity in order to avoid falls or
collisions which could cause injuries to the user or
third parties.

• Before starting, check that there are no people or

objects obstructing the vehicle’s path.

• Drive with hands on the handlebars/steering wheel

and always watch the road ahead.

• Brake in good time to avoid collisions.

ATTENTION! 

The item is equipped with a brake

system which needs to be appropriately illustrated to
the child by an adult.

2nd GEAR (if present)

Initially, use in 1st gear is recommended. Before
enabling 2nd gear, check that the child has learned to
use the handlebars/steering wheel, 1st gear and the
brake correctly, and has become familiar with the
vehicle.

WARNING!

• Check that all the wheel fixing studs/nuts are

fastened properly.

• If the vehicle is overloaded, as can happen on soft

sand, mud, or very uneven ground, the overload
switch will immediately disconnect the power. The
power supply will be restored after a few seconds.

• If the vehicle is overloaded on steep slopes, the

overload cut-out will immediately disconnect the
power. If this happens, REMOVE THE FOOT FROM
THE ACCELERATOR. The electrical brake will be
activated, slowing down the descent of the vehicle.

UNINTERRUPTED FUN: Keep a spare set of charged
batteries ready for use.

THE VEHICLE DOES NOT WORK?

• Check that there are no disconnected cables under

the accelerator plate.

• Check the operation of the accelerator button and

replace it if necessary.

• Check that the battery is connected to the

electrical system.

THE VEHICLE LACKS POWER?
• Charge the batteries. If after charging the problem

persists, have the battery and charger checked by
an assistance centre.
