15) BAT1 (Battery Socket)
The battery provides power to keep the values (such as BIOS configurations, date, and time information)
in the CMOS when the computer is turned off. Replace the battery when the battery voltage drops to a
low level, or the CMOS values may not be accurate or may be lost.
• Always turn off your computer and unplug the power cord before replacing the battery.
• Replace the battery with an equivalent one. Danger of explosion if the battery is replaced with an incorrect model.
• Contact the place of purchase or local dealer if you are not able to replace the battery by yourself or uncertain about the battery
model.
• When installing the battery, note the orientation of the positive side (+) and the negative side (-) of the battery (the positive side
should face up).
• Used batteries must be handled in accordance with local environmental regulations.
16) CLR_CMOS (Clearing CMOS Jumper)
Use this jumper to clear the CMOS values (e.g. date information and BIOS configurations) and reset
the CMOS values to factory defaults. To clear the CMOS values, place a jumper cap on the two pins to
temporarily short the two pins or use a metal object like a screwdriver to touch the two pins for a few
seconds.
1 1-2 Close: Normal operation (Default setting)
1 2-3 Close: Clear CMOS data.
• Always turn off your computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before clearing the CMOS
values.
• After clearing the CMOS values and before turning on your computer, be sure to remove the jumper cap from
the jumper. Failure to do so may cause damage to the motherboard.
