Battery Calibration
BIOS Level 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. When the startup screen appears, just prior to the Windows logo screen,
press the Del key to enter the BIOS Setup Utility.
3. At the "Choose the setup function" screen, select "Battery Calibration" and hit enter.
NOTE Make sure the AC adapter and battery are present.
4. Choose Primary or secondary battery and hit enter. Battery Calibration will take from 10 to 16
hours, depending on how much power the battery may already contain.
