Charging Tips Make sure that you fully recharge iPad's battery at least once per month (fully recharge means running the battery down to 5% and then charging it to 100%). Don't drop the battery charge to low (less than 5% is very risky as lithium-polymer cells being near their critical voltage drop the charge very sharply, so you may face completely dead battery that has no juice to start new charging cycle. To prevent failure, never store the battery fully discharged. Apply some charge (optimal is 50%) before storage, and then charge fully before use. Avoid iPad from both overheating (> 35 °C)and undercooling (< 0 °C). The optimal temperature for IPad is 22 °C. To save battery's power turn off : background app refreshing (implemented by iOS 7), and/or Wi-Fi when it is not in use, push notifications and/or push mail, and/or the sound effects (if they are frequent and as they are activated by default); adjust screen brightness, and/or minimize the use of location services, and/or increase Fetch New Data interval Turn Airplane mode on to charge faster
