Appendix E: Battery Replacement
This section instructs the user on battery replacement.
Replacing a Lithium Battery
The Router has a lithium battery, number CR2032, on its main circuit board. This battery has an operating life of
about 1~2 years. When the battery loses its charge, the Router cannot update the correct time except when
connected to the NTP Server.
Do not attempt to replace this battery yourself. You must call Linksys Technical Support to replace the battery.
Danger of explosion exists if the lithium battery is incorrectly replaced. The battery can only be replaced with the
same or equivalent type of CR2032 lithium battery.
WARNING:
The lithium battery can explode if replaced
incorrectly. It must be replaced with an equivalent CR2032
lithium battery. Do not replace this battery yourself. Contact
Linksys Technical Support.
