Instructions

    • 1

      Use your AC power cable to fully charge your battery before use. This applies if your Acer is new and this is the first time you are using it.

    • 2

      Fully charge your Acer battery and then fully discharge it once every three weeks or so. This maximizes battery life.

    • 3

      Unplug your rectangular battery from its port on the underside of the unit and use the cotton swabs dipped in rubbing alcohol to clean the whole unit. A clean battery lasts longer. (Unplug it first, for safety reasons, and make sure it dries thoroughly before plugging it in again.)

    • 4

      Use your computer at least once every three weeks or so. Leaving your battery dormant can drain battery life.

Tips & Warnings

  • If you intend on not using your battery for an extended period of time, store it in a clean, cool, dry place away from metallic objects.
