Battery
CAUTION:
Before you begin any of the procedures in this section, follow the safety instructions located in the
Product Information Guide.
NOTICE:
To prevent static damage to components inside your computer, discharge static electricity from your
body before you touch any of your computer’s electronic components. You can do so by touching an unpainted
metal surface on the computer chassis.

several years. If you have to repeatedly reset time and date information after turning on the computer,
replace the battery.
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.
