replacing the battery

A lithium battery on the motherboard provides backup power for the
computer’s timekeeping capability. The battery has an estimated life expectancy
of seven years.

When the battery starts to weaken, the date and time may be incorrect. If the
battery fails, replace it with a CR2032 lithium battery (3 volt, 220mAH rating) or
an equivalent battery.

WARNING: There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly
replaced. Replace only with the same, or equivalent, type of
battery. Discard used batteries according to the manufacturer’s
instructions.

To replace the battery:

1 Turn off the computer and all peripherals.
