All batteries lose their charge if they have not been used for a
long period of time. In this section you will become familiar with

Calibrating the Battery
Recalibrating the battery simply means
recharging the battery to its maximum
capacity and resetting the battery gauge
to display the level of charge accurately.
You may notice that the battery gauge
does not correctly display the battery
charge level when you first receive your
notebook, or if you have not used your
notebook for a long period of time. If the
battery gauge becomes inaccurate, you
must recalibrate your battery.
To recalibrate the battery:
1. Plug in the AC adapter.
2. Allow the battery to charge until the Battery Charge
7
light
turns off, showing that the battery is fully charged.
3. After the Battery Charge
7 light turns off, unplug the
AC adapter.
4. Turn on or restart your notebook.

Tip
Do not plug in the AC adapter during the process or you will
have to start over with step 1.
