MacBook 13" white (mid 2007) - how to treat a new battery for optimal battery life?

The old battery of my MacBook 13" white (mid 2007) is dead (as I always had the MacBook on my desktop and did not bother calibrating or discharging the battery).

I bought a new one (original Apple battery) and I wonder how to treat it to get optimal performance and a long life.

I found general tips on the apple.com homepage, but they are for MacBook Air/Pro Li-Ion batteries, and if I am not mistaken, the MacBook 13" has a Li-Polymer battery which might be a different story.

So what do I do with the new battery?

• first use/charging


• daily use
