Replacing the system battery

same size and voltage as the original battery that was in your

To replace the battery:
1 Restart your computer.
2 During the restart, press and hold the F1 key. The main
menu of the BIOS Setup utility opens.

exit from the utility.
4 Shut down your computer.

“Removing the side panel” on page 33.

avoid scratching the case, place it on a towel or other
non-abrasive surface.
Warning
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the
same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used
batteries following the manufacturer’s instructions.
Caution
Any custom BIOS settings you have made will be lost when you
remove the system battery. All settings will return to their factory
defaults.
