Default When Li-ion is actually Li-po

Hi, the Rage R18MT Monster Truck comes with a "7.4V 850mAh 15C Li-ion" battery.

The shop that sold me the Ultra UP100AC to look after my batteries, told be to use the Li-Po setting to balance this particular battery.

I have read that A Li-Po cell has a nominal voltage of 3.7V, while for Li-ion it's 3.6.
Does this mean this 7.4V battery is really Li-Po, and not Li-ion?

Cheers.
