CHAPTER 5: Managing Power 6 Slide the battery latch to the locked position. 7 Turn your notebook over. 8 Open the LCD panel. Recalibrating the battery Important Do not interrupt the battery recalibration process. If recalibration is interrupted, you must start the process over again. If your notebook unexpectedly goes into Sleep mode while you are using it but the battery charge is not low, you may need to recalibrate your battery. You should also recalibrate the battery periodically to maintain the accuracy of the battery gauges. To recalibrate the battery: 1 Connect your notebook to AC power and let the battery charge completely. 2 Disconnect the AC power and restart your notebook. 3 Completely discharge the battery. 4 After the battery is completely drained, reconnect your notebook to AC power. 5 Charge the battery completely until the battery status indicator turns blue. Important If, after completing this procedure, the battery charge indicator still does not show an accurate charge, contact Gateway Customer Care at the location shown on the Customer Care label.
