This battery is considered user replaceable. Be sure to double check the battery type before purchasing a replacement. <\/p>\n<p>To replace the battery on the motherboard do the following:<\/p>\n<p>1. Turn off the computer. <br \/>2. Open the case and remove the battery. This may require a flat-head screwdriver or sharp edge to pry the battery out of it&#8217;s slot. <br \/>3. Replace with a new battery and close up the computer case. <br \/>4. Restart the computer. <br \/>&#8211;Please note &#8212; <br \/>That removing or replaceing a C-MOS battery causes the computer&#8217;s BIOS to be reset. You will need to reset it back to Sweetwater specifications in order for the computer to function as it did before replacing the battery. All Sweetwater BIOS settings can be found by searching for  keyword &#8220;BIOS&#8221; in the Sweetcare knowledgebase. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[3],"tags":[],"storecat":[],"itemids":[20286,20294,20327,2975,2978,2965],"manufacturers":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Check out the What type of battery does the motherboard for my Creation Station use?
