VEHICLE CARE

• Check all screws, hex nuts and their protective coverings

regularly and tighten as required. Check plastic parts on

a regular basis for cracks or broken pieces.

• During snowy or rainy weather, the vehicle should be stored

inside or under a protective cover. Remember to charge the

battery at least once per month while your vehicle is not in

regular use.

• Avoid operating the vehicle in wet or snowy conditions, and do

not spray the vehicle with a hose. Do not wash the vehicle with

soap and water. Water or moisture in the motors or electrical

switches can cause them to corrode, and could cause switch

or motor failure.

• Avoid operating the vehicle on sand, loose dirt or gravel.

Sand, loose dirt or gravel in the motors or electrical switches

can cause them to jam, and could cause switch or motor failure.

• The vehicle can be wiped down with a soft, dry cloth. For a shiny

finish, you can wipe plastic parts with a non-wax furniture

polish applied to a soft-cloth. Do not use automotive wax.

• To ensure that your vehicle stays in good operating order,

we recommend that you periodically have your vehicle checked

by a Power Wheels

®

authorized service center. For the location

of the authorized service center nearest you, please visit us

on-line at www.powerwheels.com or call 1-800-348-0751.
