Clock/CMOS Battery

CR2025

There is a CR2025 with a two-lead cable on it under the lid with the SDRAM-Slots beneath it. It´s hardly visible, but you can plug out the cable and softly pull on it. Also on 600E, and probably X and D, too. Hardly neccesary to replace, as it keeps good for nearly ten years, but that´s the age of the 600 series now (2010).

CR1220

Fits right in a socket, no cable assy on solder tabs.
