Replacing the CMOS battery
If the server clock does not keep time or the settings in the BIOS Setup utility are not saved
when you turn off the server, replace the CMOS battery with an equivalent battery.
To replace the battery:
1 Print the appendix for BIOS Settings in this guide.
2 Open the BIOS Setup utility. For instructions, see “Opening the BIOS Setup utility”
on page 92.
3 Record the BIOS settings on your printout, then close the utility.
4 Turn off your server, then follow the instructions in “Preventing static electricity
discharge” on page 37.
5 Follow the instructions in “Opening the server case” on page 38.
6 Locate the old battery on the system board and note its orientation. You will need
to install the new battery the same way.
Warning Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only
with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
Dispose of or recycle used batteries by taking them to a hazardous
waste facility. Follow all local regulations for correct battery disposal.
