• Ensure the mounting surface is strong enough to support the battery's weight (130.7 pounds / 59.28 kg).
• Maintain adequate clearance around the battery for ventilation and maintenance.

4.3 Assembly and Wiring

The following video demonstrates the internal assembly and wiring process. While the product is typically pre-assembled, understanding these steps is crucial for maintenance or advanced configurations.

1. Measure Cell Voltage: Before assembly, measure the voltage of each cell to ensure they are consistent.
2. Install Epoxy Boards: Place the provided epoxy boards and insulating cotton within the battery enclosure to ensure proper insulation and cell separation.
3. Position Battery Cells: Carefully place the battery cells into the enclosure, following the positive and negative sequence as indicated. Ensure insulating cotton is placed between cell rows.
4. Install BMS Board: Secure the BMS board using M6 screws, ensuring no gaps.
5. Connect BMS Wires: Connect the balance wires from the battery cells to the BMS board. Ensure correct polarity and sequence (B- to B+).
6. Connect Busbars: Install the busbars to connect the battery cells in series. Tighten all nuts with a torque wrench to between 6 to 8 Nm.
7. Connect Display and Power Cables: Connect the display and power switch cables to the front cover.
8. Install Fire Protection: Attach the fire protection component (if included in your model).
9. Secure Covers: Place the epoxy cover and the main cover plate, tightening them with M4 black screws.

4.4 Initial Power-Up

• Ensure all connections are secure and correct.
• Press and hold the ON/OFF power button for three seconds. The 4.3-inch touch screen will activate.
• During the first installation, an "overcharge protection fault" prompt may appear. This can be cleared via the "JK" APP.

4.5 Mobile App Configuration

• Download and install the "Extreme Air" (JK) APP on your smartphone.
• Hold your phone close to the device and tap the APP to detect the device name.
• Connect via Bluetooth. Enter the pairing password "123456" to authorize.
• Once connected, detailed information will be displayed.
• Navigate to Settings -> "Verify PWD" and enter "123456" to authorize.
• Click "Lifepo4" to set the battery capacity (e.g., 100Ah).
• In "Details Settings," set "Continued Charge Current (A)" to 150A. This will eliminate the overcharge fault.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 General Operation

• Ensure the battery is properly connected to your inverter or charge controller.
• Turn on the battery using the ON/OFF switch on the front panel.
• Monitor the battery status via the integrated LCD screen or the mobile application.

5.2 Charging
