Default Auto Stop/Start Question

I've heard some Land Rovers use a second battery to run the Auto Stop/Start system and if you disconnect that battery it will disable this system.
Does my 2017 Disco V HSE have that second battery? Where would it be? Any pictures would be appreciated - if there's multiple circuits on it which wires are for the Auto Stop/Start? Thank you

As far as I know they no longer use the second battery method. Instead they use a large capacitor to smooth the running of the electrics while the main battery restarts the engine. So that work around won't work on the Disco V
