Failure to do so may significantly shorten the battery's life (this does not apply to Li-ion batteries, which do not require conditioning).

If iBook G3 12 M8520LL/A" battery will not be in use for a month or longer, it is recommended that it be removed from the device and stored in a cool, dry, clean place. 5.
