Remove the left side-panel (see “Removing the Left Side-Panel“ on page 3. 11).

page 32).
Locate the battery socket (see “System Board Components” on page

CAUTION: 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

board by prying off the socket or by breaking circuit traces on the system
board.
