To get the most from your batteries
•
Do not leave batteries unused for long periods of time. If you have more than one,
rotate them.
•
If you normally use AC power, make a practice, at least once a week, of using the
battery as your power source.
•
Unplug the AC adapter when the computer is not in use.
•
To lengthen the life of a battery, be sure to charge the battery regularly.
•
For long-term storage, the battery must be charged at 20–50% to minimize capacity
loss by self-discharge and to avoid deterioration of battery performance.
•
For a model with a dual-speed processor, use the lower speed on battery power (see
“To control the processor speed” on page 52). The default settings conserve battery
power.
