Handling your ThinkPad computer that all chemicals in the battery are fully activated by cycling the battery (fully charge, then fully discharge) three times. This procedure is also recommended if you stored the battery for a few months. Do not charge the battery pack until all of its power is used. Recharging a battery pack that is not completely discharged can shorten battery life. Once you start charging the battery pack, do not use it until it is fully charged. Whenever possible, use the ThinkPad battery power-saving modes: - standby: The LCD and the hard disk drive are turned off. - hibernation: All tasks are stopped. The memory data and the current status of the computer are stored in the hard disk drive; then the power is turned off. Decrease the LCD brightness. Stop the power supply to a serial device if it is not in use. Remove the battery pack and keep it in a cool place if you will not be using the computer for a long period.
