Replacing the Battery
A lithium battery on the system board provides power to the real-time clock
and CMOS RAM when the system is powered down. The battery has an
estimated life expectancy of three years. When the battery starts to weaken,
it looses voltage; when the voltage drops below a certain level, the system
setting stored in CMOS RAM (for example, the date and time) may be
wrong. If the battery fails, you will need to replace it with an equivalent
battery. Figure 5-1 shows the location of the battery.
As long as local ordinance permits, you may dispose of individual batteries
as normal trash. Do not expose batteries to excessive heat or fire. Keep all
batteries away from children.
!
CAUTION
Danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace
only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the
equipment manufacturer. Discard used batteries according to
manufacturer's instructions.
