Tip: If you find you’re force clicking when you don’t intend to, try adjusting the click
pressure to a firmer setting in Trackpad preferences. Or change the “Look up & data
detectors” option from the “Force Click with one finger” default setting to “Tap with
three fingers.”
For examples of force click options, see the Apple Support article

Charge the MacBook Air battery
The battery in your MacBook Air recharges whenever the MacBook Air is connected to
power.
Charge the battery. Connect your MacBook Air to a power outlet using the included
USB-C Charge Cable and 30W USB-C Power Adapter.
Optimized Battery Charging helps to reduce the wear on your battery and improve its
lifespan by learning your daily charging routine. It delays charging the battery past 80%
when it predicts that you’ll be plugged in for an extended period of time, and aims to
charge the battery before you unplug. You can change this option in Battery preferences.
You can charge your MacBook Air using either of the Thunderbolt / USB 4 ports. The
battery charges more quickly when the computer is off or in sleep.
Check the battery’s charge. Look at the battery status icon at the right of the menu bar
to see the battery level or charging status.
