Replacing the Battery
WARNING There is a danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly installed. For
your safety, never attempt to recharge, disassemble, or burn the old battery.
Replace the battery only with the same or equivalent type recommended by
the manufacturer. The battery is a lithium battery which does not contain
heavy metals. Nevertheless, in order to protect the environment, do not
dispose of batteries in household waste. Please return used batteries to the
shop from which you bought them, or to the dealer from whom you
purchased your PC, or to HP, so that they can be either recycled or disposed
of in an environmentally sound way. Returned batteries will be accepted
free of charge.
If your PC repeatedly loses its configuration settings you should consider
changing the battery. Replace it with a CR2032 coin type
manganese/lithium battery, available from most PC stores.
To change the battery:
1 Disconnect the PC’s power supply cord and any connection to a
telecommunications network.
2 Remove the PC’s cover (refer to page 25).
3 Remove the old battery by sliding it from under the retaining clip.
4 Place the new battery in the battery holder and ensure that it is properly
seated. Ensure that the clip holds the battery firmly in place.
5 Replace the cover (refer to page 25). Reconnect all cables and power
cords.
6 Run the Setup program to reconfigure the PC.
