 The following examples show how the Fabric capacity reservation discount applies, depending on the deployments.
 
-- **Example 1** - You purchase a Fabric capacity reservation of 64 CUs. You deploy one hour of Power BI using 32 CUs per hour and you also deploy Synapse Data Warehouse using 32 CUs per hour. In this case, both usage events get reservation discounts. No usage is charged using pay-as-you-go rates.
-- **Example 2** - This example explains the relationship between smoothing and reservations. [Smoothing](/power-bi/enterprise/service-premium-smoothing) is enabled for Fabric capacity reservations. Smoothing spreads usage spikes into 24-hour intervals (except for interactive usage such as reports read from Power BI or KQL). Therefore, reservations examine the average CU consumption over a 24-hour interval. You purchase a Fabric capacity reservation of two CUs, and you enable smoothing for Fabric capacity. Assume that your usage spikes to 4 CUs within an hour. You pay the pay-as-you-go rate only if the CU consumption exceeds an average of two CU per hour during the 24-hour interval.
+- **Example 1** - A reservation that's exactly the same size as the capacity. For example, you purchase 64 CUs of capacity and you deploy an F64. In this example, you only pay the reservation price.
+- **Example 2** - A reservation that's larger than your used capacity. For example, you buy 64 CUs of capacity and you only deploy an F32. In this example, the reservation discount is applied to the F32. For the remaining 32 CUs of unused reservation capacity, if you don't have matching resources for any hour. You lose the reservation quantity for that hour. You can't carry forward unused reserved hours.
+- **Example 3** - A reservation that's smaller than the used capacity. For example, you buy 64 CUs of capacity and you deploy an F128. In this example, your discount is applied to 64 CUs that were used. For the remaining 64 CUs, you pay the pay-as-you-go rate.
+- **Example 4** - A reservation that's the same size as two used capacities that equal the size of the reservation. For example, you buy 64 CUs of capacity and you deploy two F32s. In this example, the discount is applied to all used capacity.
+- **Example 5** - This example explains the relationship between smoothing and reservations. [Smoothing](/power-bi/enterprise/service-premium-smoothing) is enabled for Fabric capacity reservations.
