Charging a battery
You will need to charge the battery if battery power drops below 10 percent or
you have not used the battery for a considerable amount of time. The lithium-ion
battery supplied with your computer may be recharged at any time, whether you
wait until the battery is completely or partially discharged. Charging a partially
discharged battery does not affect battery life. If you charge the battery and find
that battery power is still low, the battery may be reaching the end of its life, and
you may need to replace it.
