•  Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead 

and lead compounds (acids) chemicals and are toxic and 

corrosive. Never open the battery.

•  Contact or exposure to battery leakage (lead acid) may cause 

serious injury. If contact or exposure occurs with the skin or 

in the eyes, or if the chemical is swallowed, immediately  

call 911.

•  Use of a battery or charger other than the supplied 

rechargeable battery and charger may cause a fire or 

explosion. Only use the supplied rechargeable battery and 

charger with the ride-on toy.

•  Do not charge the battery near heat or flammable materials.

product may result in overheating, fire or explosion.  

Never use the rechargeable battery and charger with  

another product.  

Re-Charge Interval and Time

Important!

•  Damage to the battery may occur if it is allowed to drain 

completely. Do not allow the battery to drain completely.

•  Check the battery and charger (supply cord, connector) for 

wear and damage before charging. Do not charge the 

battery if damage has occurred. Do not use an extension 

cord when charging the ride-on toy.

•  On average you will need to charge the battery for 10 hours  

and no more than 24 hours. Failure to charge the battery as 

directed could cause permanent damage to the battery and  

void the warranty. 

•  Only an adult who has read and understands the safety 

warnings should handle, charge and recharge the battery. 

Child Safety Warnings

•  Adults supervising children must read and understand this 

entire manual before allowing any child to use this product. 

•  Adults must evaluate their own children as to maturity, 

strength, judgment and ability to follow safety rules. 

Published age guidelines are not a substitute for careful 

evaluation of your own child. 

•  Adults must teach children about thinking ahead while riding 

as this may be the first time a child has ever controlled a 

motorized ride-on toy. While you supervise, see through the 

child’s eyes, and verbally teach them about steering and 

avoiding obstacles in the approved riding area.

9.  Instruct children to always wear shoes when using the 

ride-on toy. 

10.  Confirm that children do not have access to the charging 

equipment or come into contact with any part of the 

ride-on toy while it is charging.

11.  Do not mix old and new batteries. 
12.  Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon zinc), or 

rechargeable batteries.

13.  Firmly instruct children to use the ride-on toy in a safe 

manner. Unsafe behaviors include, but are not limited to:

•  Traveling at unsafe speeds
•  Not riding in the seated position
•  Riding at night or in any conditions of low visibility
•  Riding in any wet conditions including rain, snow,  

and ice 

•  Any kind of stunt riding: jumps, ramps, stairs, hills, 

sloped surfaces, or other actions involving any 

notable risk

•  Any kind of off-road riding: rough terrain, dirt, mud, 

gravel, or any others that involve notable risk 

•  Riding near any pool or open body of water
•  Pushing, pulling, or shoving the driver in any way 

while operating the ride-on toy

•  Using the ride-on toy without the battery cover or any 

other safety cover fully closed

•  Pulling or hitching the ride-on toy with other similar 

moving ride-on toys or products

•  Riding a motorized ride-on toy can be a dangerous activity, 

even under the best of circumstances. Good choices regarding 

where and when to ride, constant adult supervision of riding,  

and practice and careful riding by the child can all help to 

minimize risk. However this ride-on toy is intended to move 

and therefore it is possible for the rider to lose control, fall off 

and/or get into dangerous situations that no amount of care, 

instruction or expertise can eliminate.

•  If this inherent risk is not acceptable, adults should not allow 

children to ride this ride-on toy.

Battery and Charging Warnings

The following safety hazards may result in serious injury or death to the user of the ride-on:

•  Contact between the positive and negative terminals may 

result in fire or explosion. Avoid direct contact between the 

terminals. Lifting the battery by the wires or charger can 

cause damage to the battery and may result in a fire.  

Always lift the battery by its case or handles.

•  Plug wall charger directly into a wall outlet. Do not use an 

extension cord when charging as the use of an extension  

cord can cause a fire.

•  Liquids on the battery may cause fire or electric shock.  

Always keep all liquids away from the battery and keep the 

battery dry.

•  Tampering or modifying the electric circuit system may cause  

a shock, fire or explosion and permanently damage the 

system. Exposed wiring, circuitry in the charger may cause 

electric shock. Always keep the charger housing closed.

•  Regularly check charger, supply cord and connector for wear 

and damage. Look for frayed or kinked wires, any exposed
