Troubleshooting 59
1.
Turn off the computer, unplug the power cord, and
disconnect any peripheral devices. Remove the cover (see
“Removing the System Cover” on page 19).
2.
Locate the battery socket (see the illustration in the back
of this manual).
3.
Remove any add-in boards that prevent you from
reaching the battery.
4.
Remove the old battery by holding it by its metal rim and
pulling it out of the socket. (Pull on the battery, not the
socket.)
5.
Insert the new battery into the socket with the “+” side
facing up. Press down on the battery until it snaps into
place.
Replace the battery with AST part number 175000-015
(3.3-V) only. Use of other batteries may present a risk of
fire or explosion.
Batteries may explode if mishandled. Do not recharge,
disassemble, heat above 100 C, incinerate, or expose
contents to water.
Batteries contain hazardous material and should be
recycled. In some cases, it is illegal to dispose of these
batteries as solid waste. Make sure you follow all state
and local regulations. If you want, send used batteries to
the following address:
AST Computer
1001 N.E. Loop 820 Dock 5
Fort Worth, TX 76131
Attn. Safety Department
6.
Replace any add-in boards you removed. Replace the
system cover. Reconnect peripheral devices and plug in
the power cord. Turn on the system.
