About Thermal  Fuses
Your Power Wheels®12 volt battery is equipped with a
built-in thermal fuse. The thermal fuse is a self-resetting
safety device which automatically “trips” and shuts down
operation of the scooter if the scooter is overloaded or the
driving conditions too severe. Once a fuse has “tripped”,
it will automatically reset itself after approximately 25
seconds and allow the scooter to resume normal
operation. To avoid repeated automatic shutdowns,
do not overload the scooter by exceeding the 150 lb.
maximum weight capacity or by towing anything behind
the scooter. Avoid severe driving conditions, such as
driving up steep slopes or running into fixed objects, which
can cause the wheels to stop spinning while power is still
being supplied to the motors.
If a thermal fuse in a battery continually trips under 
normal driving conditions, please contact your local 
Power Wheels
®Authorized Service Center. For the
location of the Authorized Service Center nearest to 
you, see page 24 or call 1-800-348-0751.
