This “coin” battery must be changed periodically to make the computer properly work
(typical periodicity > 2 years).
CAUTION
: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used
batteries according to the instructions.
Instructions
: Do not dispose of your LPOS (POST-L-0H-10) terminal’s battery in a fire or
in abnormal household waste : battery cells may explode. Discard a used battery according to
the manufacturer’s instructions or contact your local waste disposal agency for disposal
instructions. Dispose of a spent or damaged battery promptly.

Because the LPOS (POST- L-0H-10) terminal’s motherboard is not easy to reach, only trained
technicians are allowed to do the “coin battery” replacement operation [cf. “LPOS (POST-L-
0H-10) Maintenance” document.
