Catalysis of the transfer of a polyol from one side of the membrane to the other. A polyol is any polyhydric alcohol. Catalysis of the PEP-dependent, phosphoryl transfer-driven transport of substances across a membrane. The transport happens by catalysis of the reaction: protein N-phosphohistidine + mannitol(out) = protein histidine + mannitol phosphate(in). This differs from primary and secondary active transport in that the solute is modified during transport. Catalysis of the transfer of an alcohol from one side of the membrane to the other. An alcohol is any carbon compound that contains a hydroxyl group. Catalysis of the transfer of mannitol from one side of the membrane to the other. Mannitol is the alditol derived from D-mannose by reduction of the aldehyde group.
