System Battery
The system battery is a 3.0-volt (V), coin-cell battery.
Replacing the System Battery
CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You
should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your
product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and
support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered
by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came with the
product.
CAUTION: There is a danger of a new battery exploding if it is incorrectly
installed. Replace the battery only with the same or equivalent type recommended
by the manufacturer. Discard used batteries according to the manufacturer's
instructions. See your System Information Guide for additional information.

NOTICE: 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 attempt to pry out the battery. Otherwise, you
may damage the system board by prying off the socket or by breaking circuit traces
on the system board.
