boost pressure and engine speed to 4,000 RPM for the first 3 consecutive miles of vehicle operation or 50
engine start / warm up cycles. This feature is enabled prior to shipment. If neither of these conditions has
been satisfied prior to customer delivery, full power will not be available.

charger / maintainer to keep the battery's state of charge at an acceptable level.
