recalibrated.

Note that if bits 0 through 3 are 0, the drive needs calibration.
Recalibration will retract the head to track 0.
If a drive needs recalibration and a seek is requested, then
recalibration will be performed before the seek.
INT 13h, Service 00h, will set bits 0 through 3 to 0, thereby forcing
a recalibration.
