CAUTION: Only trained service technicians are authorized to remove the system cover and access any of the components inside the system. See your Product Information Guide for complete information about safety precautions, working inside the computer, and protecting against electrostatic discharge.

1Align the riser board with the two alignment pins on the system board, then lower the board onto the pins. See Figure 3-13.

2Press down on the riser board until the edge connector on the board is fully seated in the riser board connector on the system board.

3If applicable, install the expansion card in the expansion-card slot.

4Close the system. See "Opening and Closing the System" on page 38.

5Reconnect your system and peripherals to their electrical outlets, and turn on the system.

System Battery

The system battery is a 3.0-volt (V), coin-cell battery.

Replacing the System Battery

CAUTION: Only trained service technicians are authorized to remove the system cover and access any of the components inside the system. See your Product Information Guide for complete information about safety precautions, working inside the computer, and protecting against electrostatic discharge.

CAUTION: There is a danger of a new battery exploding 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. See your System Information Guide for additional information.

1Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect the system from the electrical outlet.

2Open the system. See "Opening and Closing the System" on page 38.

3To improve access to the battery, disconnect the power cable from the POWER1 connector on the system board. See Figure 3-6.

4Locate the battery socket. See Figure 6-2.

NOTICE: If you pry the battery out of its socket with a blunt object, be careful not to touch the system board with the object. Ensure that the object is inserted between the battery and the socket before you attempt to pry out the battery. Otherwise, you may damage the system board by prying off the socket or by breaking circuit traces on the system board.

NOTICE: To avoid damage to the battery connector, you must firmly support the connector while installing or removing a battery.
