Do one of the following detailed instructions for the type of RTC battery retainer on
the server motherboard.
• Remove the battery from the 796136-1 Top-Load Battery Connector (TE) as
follows:
Each connector consists of a housing with a positive contact and a negative
contact. The floor of the housing is embossed with a `+' to designate the
positive contact. The connector features four lips for positive retention of the
battery.
a. Support the connector by grasping the "positive" end of the connector with
two fingers and then pushing the battery toward the positive end of the
connector [1]. Slightly move the lips at the negative end of the connector
away from the battery to dislodge it from the connector.
Note:
CAUTION! The connector must be supported, otherwise
damage to the soldered contacts could occur.
b. Once the batter has been dislodged, remove the battery from the
connector [2].
