3-4 Onboard Battery Installation

A battery is included on the mainboard to supply certain volatile memory components with power when power has been removed from the blade module. If this battery dies, it must be replaced with an equivalent CR2032 Lithium 3V battery. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions. See Figure 3-4for a diagram of installing a new onboard battery.

WARNING: There is a danger of explosion if the onboard battery is installed upside down, which reverses its polarities.
