    • In this step you will disconnect the battery to help avoid shorting out any components during service.

    • Use the flat end of a spudger to pry both short sides of the battery connector upward to disconnect it from its socket on the logic board.

    • Bend the battery cable slightly away from the logic board so the connector will not accidentally bend back and make contact with its socket.

    • When handling the battery, avoid squeezing or touching the six exposed lithium polymer cells.

    • Lift the battery from its edge nearest the logic board and remove it from the upper case.

    • If you're installing a new battery, you should calibrate it after installation:

    • Charge it to 100%, and then keep charging it for at least 2 more hours. Next, unplug and use it normally to drain the battery. When you see the low battery warning, save your work, and keep your laptop on until it goes to sleep due to low battery. Wait at least 5 hours, then charge your laptop uninterrupted to 100%.

    • If you notice any unusual behavior or problems after installing your new battery, you may need to reset your MacBook's SMC.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

Surprisingly easy for Apple.

Jake - Contestar

Pretty easy; good instructions. Had to fiddle a bit to get the battery back in with a good connection because the battery cable was stiff.

Battery passed Tech Tool Pro’s check.

Had same problem getting battery connector in due to stiff cable (which was also a little bit to the right of the target). My solution was to first push the stiff battery cable wires down using a spudger, and then I was able to push the connector into place.

La batterie du MacBook Air début 2014 est assez simple à changer, c'est même étonnamment simple compte tenu qu'il s'agisse d'un ordinateur Apple.

Le seul point auquel il faut faire attention et qui n'est pas précisé dans le tutoriel, c'est le rangement du câble de la batterie, il faut le plier correctement comme sur l'ancienne batterie afin d'être en mesure de pouvoir brancher la batterie à l'ordinateur une fois celle-ci revissée. Car le câble de la batterie vendue par iFixit est très rigide.

Is there any difference between Macbook Air 11” Early 2014 and Mid 2013 ??

Different battery type/shape maybe?
