Installing System Components
You can operate your system without a battery; however, without a battery, the
configuration information is erased if the system is turned off or unplugged
from the electrical outlet. In this case, you must enter the System Setup
program and reset the configuration options.
CAUTION:
A new battery can explode if it is incorrectly installed. Replace the
battery only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
Discard used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Removing the System Battery
CAUTION:
Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You
should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your

by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came with the
product.
