be charged with professional
charging tools, and shall not be
removed for recharging without
permission.
• Do not jump-start the vehicle with

The starter iron battery has
a built-in power manager. Do
not disassemble or repair the
battery without permission to
avoid damaging the battery or
causing personal injury.
