If your Dell Chromebook 3100 has lost its ability to hold a charge, you most likely have a dead battery, which requires replacement.
A functional battery provides power to your device. If you notice that your charged battery is draining more quickly than usual, consider calibrating your battery to determine an accurate charging capacity. If you continue to notice significant drops in battery percentage over a short period of time after charging, you should replace your battery.
A punctured battery can cause a dangerous fire. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
Make sure to power down your device before you begin.
