Installing a cable lock
To help to protect against theft, you can install an optional cable lock to secure
your computer to a desk, table, or other fixture. This type of cable lock also
automatically locks the computer cover to the chassis. The cable-lock latch on your
computer accommodates the same type of cable lock used with many laptop
computers. You can order cable locks directly from IBM. For more information, see
Finding options from IBM in Access IBM.
See the following illustration for cable lock installation.

Changing the battery
Your computer has a special type of memory that maintains the date, time, and
settings for built-in features, such as parallel-port assignments (configuration). A
battery keeps this information active when you turn off the computer.
The battery normally requires no charging or maintenance throughout its life;
however, no battery lasts forever. If the battery fails, the date, time, and
configuration information (including passwords) are lost. An error message is
displayed when you turn on the computer.
