Battery Calibration
The first time you use a battery, you should calibrate it. The calibration process empties and charges the battery. This
allows the Windows battery gauge to accurately monitor battery status. To calibrate a battery, follow these steps:
1 Plug in the AC adapter.
2 Restart the computer and when the startup screen appears, press the Del key to enter the BIOS Setup Utility.
3 In the BIOS Setup Utility, select Power Management Setup. Choose Battery Auto Calibration. Select Enabled,
then press Enter.
NOTE Please make sure that AC adapter & Battery are present.
4 Press Enter when you are asked “Do you wish to do battery auto-learning?

” in the Battery Calibration
dialog. This starts battery calibration.
Battery Calibration will take from 10 to 16 hours, depending on how much power the battery may already contain.
NOTE For optimum performance, we recommend calibrating the battery once every three months.
