Battery Calibration

The first time you use a battery, you should calibrate it. The calibration process empties
and charges the battery one time. This allows the Windows battery gauge to accurately
monitor battery status. To calibrate a battery, follow these steps:
1. Plug in the power adapter.
2. Restart the computer and when the startup screen appears, press Del key to enter the
BIOS Setup Utility.
3. In the BIOS Setup Utility, select Advance settings. , choose Battery learning, then
press enter.
4. Press <OK> at the above Battery Auto Calibration dialog to begin the battery calibration.
Battery Calibration will take from 4 to 8 hours, depending on how much power the
battery may already contain.
Note: For optimum performance, we recommend calibrating the battery every three months. Each
time you charge and discharge a battery, it loses a tiny part of its storage capacity. Over time, it will
store less than its potential charge. Similarly, if you do not use the battery for a few days, it will slowly
self-discharge. When it is recharged, it will hold less than 100% of the potential charge.
