Changing the Battery
Before you begin:
Read “Safety Considerations” on page 4-2.
Follow any special handling and installation instructions supplied with the
replacement battery.
Disconnect all external cables and power cords, then remove the server
cover (see “Removing the Cover” on page 4-4 if you need additional
information).
CAUTION:
The lithium battery can cause fire, explosion, or a severe burn. Do not
recharge, disassemble, heat above 100°C (212°F), solder directly to the cell,
incinerate, or expose cell contents to water. Keep away from children.
Replace only with the part number specified for your server. Use of another
battery may present a risk of fire or explosion.
The battery connector is polarized; do not attempt to reverse polarity.
Dispose of the battery according to local regulations.
Attention: Removing the battery may erase the Power-on Password, the current
time and date, the customized boot list, and any other customized
configuration information. After changing the battery, you may have to reset
these values using the System Management Services and your operating
system.
Make sure that the power cable is disconnected from the server before changing the
battery.
