Sumario:We suggest a method of measuring the global muon reconstruction efficiency epsilon directly from data, which largely alleviates uncertainties associated with our ability to monitor and reproduce in Monte Carlo simulation all details of the underlying detector performance. With the data corresponding to an integrated luminosity L = 10 fb^-1, the precision of measuring epsilon for muons in the P_T range of 10-100~GeV will be better than 1%.
