Highlight (very explicitly) their choice of wording, so that the Q&A moderators don't give you a boilerplate RTFM response.
The issue with the word "may" does not bring into the fact of using another board than the IFI one. The word "may" is meant as you may or may not charge from the 12V battery. If you chose yes you move on in the sentence told be told you are to use the IFI board.
