 Installing the BIOS 2 5

The BIOS installation is part of the complete imaging software installation, but can also
be performed independently.

 This is useful if the BIOS battery dies and is replaced or if the PC loses the BIOS configura‐
tion for another reason.
The installation of the BIOS takes about 20 minutes.

If the BIOS battery is dead, replace it before beginning the BIOS installation.

 Instructions for replacing the BIOS battery can be found in the document “Replacement
of Parts”. See CB-Doc
