IBM Flex System x440 Compute Node Installation And Service Manual page 510

Attention: Touching the CMOS battery on a metal surface, such as the side of the
compute node, when you replace the CMOS battery can cause it to fail.
Procedure
To install a CMOS battery, complete the following steps:
1. Remove the cover (see "Removing the compute node cover").
2. Follow any special handling and installation instructions that come with the
3. Locate the CMOS battery socket on the system board (see "System-board
4. Orient the CMOS battery so that the positive (+) side faces in toward the center
5. Pivot the CMOS battery so that you can insert it into the bottom of the socket.
6. As you slide the CMOS battery into place, press the top of the CMOS battery
7. If you removed a cover from the battery, replace the cover.
What to do next
After you install the CMOS battery, complete the following steps:
1. Install the cover onto the compute node (see "Installing the compute node
2. Install the compute node into the chassis (see "Installing a compute node in a
3. Turn on the compute node, start the Setup utility, and reset the configuration
Removing the compute node cover
Use this information to remove the cover from a compute node.
Before you begin
Before you remove the compute node cover, complete the following steps:
1. Read "Safety" on page v and "Installation guidelines" on page 487.
2. If the compute node is installed in a IBM Flex System chassis, remove it (see
3. Carefully lay the compute node on a flat, static-protective surface, orienting the
