For protection considerations, the motor will stop immediately if the battery 
voltage drops below the critical level during operation or when running.
To keep electric connectors in good condition, please spray the connectors 
about every 3 months with contact spray.
To store the outboard motor, put the machine in original ePropulsion 
package and keep it in a dry and ventilated place without direct sun 
exposure.

The SPIRIT Battery specially designed for SPIRIT 1.0 can only be charged with 
an ePropulsion original charger. The battery has a built-in battery management 
system which provides cell balancing function, over charging protection, over 
discharging protection, short-circuit protection, over temperature protection, 
under temperature protection, over current protection, communication function, 
etc. Though the battery has been tested to be reliable and safe during normal 
operation, it should be handled with care as safety is critically important. 
Please adhere to the following instructions when using it.

Do not drop, strike or squash the battery.
Do not disassemble the battery or conduct unauthorized repair, the battery 
disassembly can only be conducted by ePropulsion service.
