CMOS Battery

This battery provides battery backup and prevents data loss
in the system's complementary metal oxide semiconductor
(CMOS) RAM. This memory area contains information on
the system's configuration, for example date, time, drives,
and memory. The CMOS battery lasts approximately two
years.
Only an authorized NEC service technician can replace the
CMOS battery.

Bridge Battery

The bridge battery provides power to the NEC Versa 5000
when main battery power is very low (and the system is
about to shut down). If you put the system into Suspend
mode, the bridge battery also provides power during the
short time it takes to remove and replace the main battery.
The bridge battery gives you time to do the following:
T
save your unsaved data, close your open programs, and
shut down the system.
T
install a fully charged battery or plug in an AC power
adapter.
Only an authorized NEC dealer can change a bridge
battery.
