• Check all screws, cap nuts and 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.
• Do not operate the vehicle in wet or snowy conditions.
Never immerse any part of the product. 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. Do not use soap and water or spray
the vehicle with a hose.
•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.

Oversteer
Oversteer gives the front tires more grip on the track. Shifting
your weight forward when turning will create more steering
control. Oversteer is useful on low traction surfaces.
Understeer
Understeer is just the opposite of oversteer. When you want
less front tire grip, lean back in the cockpit of your kart when
turning. Understeer is useful on high traction surfaces.
Adjusting the Rear Wing
A low drag body and adjustable rear wing gives your Hot
Wheels™ Go-Kart an aerodynamic (air-o-die-nam-ic)
advantage. That means that air flows over and around
the kart efficiently, which contributes to speed. You can
adjust the rear wing on your kart. (At really high racing
speeds, rear wings on real race cars are used to prevent
back-end lift.)
