Battery care
Operating temperature Surface is designed to work between 32°F and 95°F (or 0°C to 35°C). Lithium-ion
batteries are sensitive to high temperatures, so keep your Surface out of the sun and don’t leave it in a
hot car.
Recharge anytime The battery doesn’t need to be empty or low before you recharge. You can recharge
the battery whenever you’d like. However, it’s best to let the battery run down at least once per month
before you recharge it.
Battery lifespan The battery has limited recharge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced by an
authorized service provider.
