2.7 Installing Backup Batteries
Internal Backup Battery
The NETBOOK PRO has a replaceable backup battery
designed to retain data while the main battery pack is charg-
ing or changed over. The backup battery is a pair of AAA
cells accessible from the front of the open NETBOOK PRO.
Important: If both the main battery pack and the backup
battery are allowed to fully discharge, all user
data held in RAM will be lost.
The backup battery is user-replaceable. To replace it:
1. Switch the NETBOOK PRO off.
2. Position the display at a slight angle forward to access
the backup-battery cover, which is located on the left
above the computer keyboard (see Figure 2.7).
3. Apply downward pressure to the center of the
backup-battery cover and slide it towards the front
of the NETBOOK PRO.
4. Remove the AAA cells.
5. Insert replacement alkaline AAA cells, observing
the polarity indication.
6. To close the compartment, slide the cover back
over the batteries while again applying downward
pressure to the center of the cover.
