Calibrating a battery
Calibrate a battery under the following conditions:
●
When battery charge displays seem inaccurate
●
When you observe a significant change in battery run time
Even if a battery is heavily used, it should not need to be calibrated more than once a month. It is also
not necessary to calibrate a new battery.
Step 1: Fully charge the battery
