Operating Instructions

Initial Battery Calibration:

For optimal performance and to 'wake up' the new battery, follow these steps:

1. Discharge the new battery to approximately 5% (do not let it reach 0%).
2. Charge the battery fully to 95-100%.
3. Repeat this discharge and charge cycle 3-4 times.

Charging Sequence:

When charging, first install the battery, then connect the power adapter. When fully charged, first disconnect the power adapter, then remove the power plug from the wall outlet.

Maintenance Tips

• Avoid Full Discharge: Do not consistently run the battery down to 0%. This can shorten its lifespan. Recharge immediately when the battery level drops to 5%.
• Avoid Prolonged Adapter Connection: Do not keep the laptop connected to the power adapter for extended periods after the battery is fully charged, as this can potentially damage the battery.
• Storage: If storing the battery for an extended period, ensure it is charged to about 50-70% and stored in a cool, dry place.
