remember to charge the battery and to keep it
disconnected from the electrical system. Repeat
the recharge procedure at least once every three

Consult a doctor immediately.
IF THE ELECTROLYTE IS SWALLOWED

Consult a doctor immediately.
MAINTENANCE AND VEHICLE CARE
• The toy should not be left anywhere with a
temperature below 0°C. If it were to be used
without being warmed up to a temperature above
0°C, irreversible damage could be caused to the
motors and batteries.
• Check the condition of the vehicle regularly, paying
particular attention to the electrical system, the
plug connections, the terminal protectors and the
battery charger. If defects are identified, the
electrical vehicle and the battery charger must not
be used. For repairs use only original PEG
PEREGO spare parts.
• PEG PEREGO do not accept any responsibility for
cases of tampering with the electrical system.
• Do not leave the batteries or the vehicle close to
sources of heat like radiators, fireplaces, etc.
• Protect the vehicle from water, rain, snow, etc.
Using the vehicle on sand or mud may damage the
buttons, motors and gears.
• Lubricate moving parts like bearings, steering, etc.
periodically with light oil.
• The vehicle surfaces can be cleaned with a damp
cloth and, if necessary, with non-abrasive domestic
cleaning products.
• Cleaning must only be carried out by adults.
• Never dismantle the vehicle mechanisms or
motors, unless authorized by PEG PEREGO.

RULES FOR SAFE DRIVING

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.
• 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.
2nd and 3rd SPEED
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 switch will immediately cut off the power.
If this happens, TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE
ACCELERATOR AND PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL
to slow down the descent of the vehicle.
• Only for 12 and 24 Volt vehicles: in first gear the
vehicle has a differential effect like a real motor
vehicle; on smooth terrain and with just one child
on board, the two wheels can turn at different
speeds and they can slip and slow down.
UNINTERRUPTED FUN: Keep a spare set of charged
batteries ready for use.
PROBLEMS?
IF THE VEHICLE DOES NOT OPERATE?
• Make sure that the battery is hooked up to the
electrical unit.
• If the green LED does not come on after having
properly carried out all the procedures:
1. Check the circuit board connector found on the
dashboard (START).
2. Charge the batteries. If the problem persists
after recharging, have the battery and battery
charger checked by a service centre.
• If the vehicle does not move when the accelerator
pedal is pressed remember to:
1. Make sure that the brake pedal is not activated.
2. Check that the accelerator pedal's steel wire is
intact and that it is running properly.
• If the vehicle does not brake when the brake pedal
is pressed remember to:
1. Regulate the brake pads.
2. Check that the brake pedal's steel wire is intact
and that it is running properly.
• Contact the Service Centre for any problem
related to changing gears.
• The vehicle should never go forward by itself. If the
contrary occurs, contact a service centre.
• If the red LED comes on when the vehicle is
started contact a service centre.
• If it is difficult to move the steering wheel, we
recommend greasing the steering bar (located
underneath the vehicle) and the wheel joints with
grease or light oils.
• If the vehicle does not work in spite of all
verifications, contact a service centre.
