Even when off, the battery continues to slowly lose charge. If Chromebooks are left charging for months, battery life can also be reduced.Â
To enable battery disconnect, follow the instructions below:
1. Charge Chromebook to at least 80%.
2. Turn on the Chromebook with the charger still connected.
3. Hold Refresh and Power at the same time.
4. While holding these keys, remove the power cable from the device and release the keys. The device should shut down and remain off.
5. Confirm the battery disconnect worked by pressing the power button. The device should not power on despite having a battery charge. The Chromebook won't power on via the power button or opening the lid until you plug the device back to a power source.
If you can't put your model of Chromebook into the battery disconnect state, charge the battery to at least 80%, turn off the Chromebook, unplug it from a power source and store in in cool, dry place.
