To enable the heat function on your Battle Born Batteries BB10012 100Ah 12V LiFePO4 Deep Cycle Battery, you will need to make a connection from the heat-enable post to the positive terminal. Here are the steps to enable the heat function for a single battery:

1. Make a connection on the positive terminal: Use the provided heat-enable jumper wire to connect the 5/16" side of the wire to the positive terminal connection between the washer and the nylok. Torque down the connection using a 1/2" wrench, a 1/2" socket, and a torque wrench set to 10 ft-lbs.

2. Enable the heat function: Remove the  xxxx  from the heat-enable post and place the other end of the jumper wire onto the post. Tighten the connection just enough to engage the lock washer feature on the ring terminal, ensuring that vibration does not loosen the connection. Once the connection is tightened, the internal heating function of the battery will be activated.

3. Deactivate the heat-enable function: To deactivate the heat-enable function, simply remove the heat-enable jumper wire from the heat-enable post. Tape down the end of the jumper wire with electrical tape and cover the ring terminal to prevent contact with other live wires or grounds. Remember to put the heat-enable  xxxx  back into the post for safekeeping.

Please note that the heater will automatically activate when the internal temperature drops below approximately 35°F (1.6°C) and will shut off when the internal temperature exceeds approximately 45°F (7.2°C). Always disconnect the heater when storing the battery.

For multiple batteries, there are two options to set up the heat-enable function: using individual heat-enable jumper wires for each battery or daisy-chaining the batteries using the Add-on Kit. The manual provides detailed instructions for both options.
