Replacing the CMOS battery

time clock (RTC) and

CMOS RAM. The battery will last for several years.

When the battery starts to weaken and the voltage drops below a certain level, you may notice that
the date and time are wrong. This is an indication that the battery needs replacing.

If you replace the battery incorrectly, it can cause injury or damage the system. Always use the
same or an equivalent type of battery.

Do not expose batteries to excessive heat or fire.Please return battery to the point of purchase for
proper disposal.

The following procedure assumes you have opened the case and are observing ESD precautions.
