PS/2 - 95xx Battery Life Expectancy/Voltage

Applicable to: World-Wide

Service Information:
The battery used on the 95XX products has a normal life expectancy of five to seven years. The life of the battery is directly related to how the machine is used. Battery voltage is consumed only when the system is powered off. Since the battery is a lithium battery, it has very long shelf life. For correct machine operation the battery voltage should be between 2.5 volts and 3.7 volts.

To check the battery voltage:
- Turn off the system unit power.
- Remove the battery from the battery holder.
- Check the battery for a voltage of 2.5V - 3.7V DC
If the battery voltage drops below 2.5 volts, it should be replaced with FRU P/N33F8354. After replacing the battery, the system unit should be powered on and checked for proper operation.
