Dell XPS 17 9710 Battery Replacement

简介

Use this guide to replace the battery in your Dell XPS 17 9710.

Lithium-ion batteries inevitably degrade over time, so if you're noticing reduced battery life, or that your device doesn't power on without being plugged in, it's probably time to replace the battery.

For your safety, discharge the battery below 25% before disassembling your device. This reduces the risk of fire if the battery is accidentally damaged during the replacement. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.

For optimal performance, after completing this guide calibrate your newly installed battery: Charge it to 100% and keep charging it for at least two more hours. Then use your laptop until it shuts off due to low battery. Finally, charge it uninterrupted to 100%.
