24 Volt LiFePO

Have an issue and am wondering how serious it is.

I bought a Renogy 24 volt lithium iron phosphate battery (RBT2425LFP) to work with a VESC EDU only now I see that the charging voltage of the LiFePO battery chemistry is up to 29 volts, and that the battery itself settles on a 100% charge state of 25.6 volts. Both of these values exceed "24" volts, but its technically a "24" volt battery used for 24 volt systems.

My question is this, does the VESC EDU's "do not exceed" rating of 24 volts mean "do not use a battery system higher than those for a 24 volt system" ie, do not connect to a 36 or 48 volt system respectively, or does it literally mean do not exceed 24.00 VDC period, at all?

Id prefer not to have to buy new parts and etc if I can help it.
