Before you begin, be sure you have:
Ÿ
Read “Safety information” on page 308
Ÿ
Followed any special handling and installation
instructions supplied with the replacement
battery.
Note
After you replace the battery, you must reconfigure the
server and reset the system date and time.
To replace the battery:
1. Turn off the server and peripheral devices and
disconnect all external cables and power cords (see
“Preparing to install options” on page 220); then
remove the top cover (see “Top cover removal” on
page 262).
2. Locate the battery on the system board (see “System
board component locations” on page 255).
3. Remove any adapters that are installed in PCI slots 1
and 2, so you can access the battery. (See “Hot-plug
PCI adapter installation” on page 173 for information
about installing and removing adapters from the
hot-plug PCI slots.)
4. Lift and remove the plastic dividers between PCI slot
1 and the ISA slot and between PCI slot 1 and PCI
slot 2 by pressing the latches on the top ends of the
dividers toward the dividers and lifting the dividers
from the server.
5. Remove the battery:
a. Use one finger to lift the battery clip over the
battery.
b. Use one finger to slightly slide the battery toward
the rear of the server. The spring mechanism
behind the battery will push it out toward you as
you slide it forward.

battery from under the battery clip.
d. Ensure that the battery clip is touching the base
of the battery socket by pressing gently on the
