📌 Before you begin:

Did you know that taking care of your computer is just as important as taking care of your health or your vehicle? 🚗💨 A computer needs regular maintenance to avoid future problems. Whether you use your PC for work, school, or entertainment, here are the keys to keeping it your best friend.

🔋 1. The battery: Never neglect it ⚡

Modern lithium batteries include intelligent circuitry that manages charging and discharging. This allows them to be kept connected without the risk of overcharging, but there are practices that can extend their lifespan. 💡

Myths about overload ❌

It's a myth that leaving your laptop plugged in will always damage the battery. Current systems cut off charging at 100%, using mains power. 🔋

👉 Recommended steps:

1. 🔋 Partial discharge: 2-3 times per week, go down to 20% before recharging (if you used the battery that week).
2. 🌬️ Avoid overheating by using your laptop on flat, well-ventilated surfaces.

The choice depends on your use.

👉 Recommended steps:
