Battery Calibration
When charging/discharging the battery repeatedly for only a short time, the battery usage time may
be reduced by the difference between the actual battery charge and the remaining charge display.
In this case, the actual battery charge and the remaining charge display will be the same by dis-
charging the battery completely using the Battery Calibration function, and then recharging it again.
1Disconnect the AC power adapter after turning off the system.
2Restart your computer and press the Menu button when the SAMSUNG logo appears, to start
System Setup.
3Using the arrow keys, select Smart Battery Calibration in the Boot menu and press Enter.
4Highlight Yes in the [Battery Calibration Confirmation] window and press Enter.
The Battery Calibration function is activated and the battery is discharged by force. To stop the
operation press the u4 (Esc) button.
This operation requires 3~5 hours depending on the battery capacity and the remaining battery
charge.
