Manitou Battery reserve mode
This safety feature allows the MEWP to release residual battery power when discharged. Its activation requires the input of a specific code (access code). This ensures the machine can perform the necessary basic movements to be safely loaded onto a truck or driven to the nearest charging terminal.
