Care & Maintenance
Extended Non-Use of the System
If your system will be out of use for a number of weeks or
more it is highly recommended that the back-up battery system de
scribed earlier be used. This requires changing the jumper setting as
described and connecting a battery pack or specially designed battery.
These accessories are available at many computer stores and computer
supply dealers.
Using the battery will preserve the setup information in the
CMOS memory. When you begin to use the system again the informa
tion will be available. If you do not preserve the information in this
way it will be necessary to re-enter the configuration data before the
system can be used. Remember to reset the jumper J2 for the internal
battery and leave your system on for 12 to 24 hours when you first be
gin to use the system again. This will recharge the on-board battery.
This procedure should be repeated whenever the system will
not be used for an extended period. It is also a good idea to use a dust
cover to prevent the interior of the computer from excessive deposits
of dust The keyboard should be similarly protected.
