This manual is divided into four parts: Receiving and Installation of the battery, Operation and Maintenance,
Reference and Trouble-Shooting section to assist the user should he require more detailed explanation of battery
performance and maintenance procedures, and the Appendix.

Before handling cells or storing cells for future installation take time to read this manual. It contains
information that could avoid irreparable damage to the battery and/or void product warranty.
