Battery

A 3.0-V CR2032 lithium coin-cell battery installed on the system board maintains system configuration, date, and time information in a special section of memory.

The operating life of the battery can extend up to ten years. The battery may need replacing if an incorrect time or date is displayed during the boot routine along with a message such as:

Time-of-day not set - please run SETUP program

or

Invalid configuration information - please run SETUP program

or

Strike the F1 key to continue,

F2 to run the setup utility

To determine whether you need to replace the battery, reenter the time and date through system setup and exit the program properly to save the information. Turn off your computer and disconnect it from the electrical outlet for 1 minute; then reconnect the computer, turn it on, and enter system setup. If the date and time are not correct in system setup, replace your battery.
