The Power Wheels® 12V Quick Charger will not produce an output until it is plugged into a working Power Wheels® battery. The charger needs to detect a battery before it starts charging, so no voltage will be present when testing it with a volt meter.

Do not place used batteries in your regular trash. Instead, return the battery to a federal or state approved lead-acid battery recycler. This may be a Power Wheels® Authorized Service Center or a local retailer of automotive batteries.

Due to the technical nature of Power Wheels® products, some Power Wheels® parts may only be installed by our authorized service centers, therefore we’re unable to provide repair manuals or diagrams. Power Wheels® has independently owned and operated authorized service centers that carry replacement parts, batteries, and chargers in addition to repairing vehicles in or out of warranty. Our Service Center locator will assist you in finding one of our authorized service centers in your area as well as provide you website addresses for service centers that offer on-line shopping.

Make sure you charge the battery for at least 18 hours (30 hours max) before operating your vehicle for the first time. Charge the battery for at least 14 hours after each use of the vehicle. *It is necessary to charge the battery immediately after use. It is damaging to the battery when it has been used and then sits without being charged. After a full charge the battery can sit up to two-three months when not in use.

If your vehicle was originally equipped with a Green 6v 6amp Power Wheels® battery, a Connector Converter may be used to allow the use of a Red 6V 9.5 amp Power Wheels® battery.

If you have any questions or would like to obtain a Connector Converter, please have your product number with you and contact Consumer Relations at 1-800-432-5437.

In the last few years we have seen a tremendous increase in the number of people interested in collecting Hot Wheels cars. Among collectors, some cars are more popular than others, which can make them more difficult to find. As a manufacturer, Mattel does not operate a complete customer sales department so our products are sold primarily through retail stores. However, please check out www.hotwheelsshop.com for some collectible items being sold there.
