Replacing lithium battery

In order to permanently save the system information, a lithium battery is installed to provide the CMOS-memory with a current. A corresponding error message notifies the user when the charge is too low or the battery is empty. The lithium battery must then be replaced.

!

Incorrect replacement of the lithium battery may lead to a risk of explosion!

The lithium battery may be replaced only with an identical battery or with a type

 

recommended by the manufacturer.

 

Do not throw lithium batteries into the household waste. They must be disposed of in

 

accordance with local regulations concerning special waste.

 

Make sure that you insert the battery the right way round: The plus pole must be on the

 

top!
